the United Press on the most prom inent figures in the congressional prohibition controversy.
 Washington, Jan. 4 (UP)-It is a dull day in tho house Of repre- sentatiyes when the pitched voice Of Fiorcllo II. LaGuardia is not raised against the eighteenth amendment and the Nolstead law.
 The republican congressman from Harlem. recently defeated by James Walker for the New York mayoralty. is the most persistent proponent in congress Of the uti-prohibition cause. When less enthusiastic vets virtually gave up the fight last year, LaGuardia went blthely on GllinG Inc congressional record with anti prohibition arguments.

 LaGuardia's belief in the harm- lessness of alcoholic beverages is in grained. The son of an Italian imml- grant and army and band master, l-aGuardia was brought up on the fare which includes table wine. Ever since entering congress in 1916. he has been an opponent of prohibition. He still serves beer and wine at home and several times has publicly invited prohibition agents to inter- fcro.
 His congressional service was in torruptcd by the World War; in which he served as an aviation ma jor on the Italian front, and later for two years, when he was alder manic president of New York.
 Educated in Arizona
 LaGuardia was educated in the Prescott, Ariz.. high school, close to the army post where his father was stationed. He was appointed to the consular service when 19 and served at Budapest and Trieste for four years. Later he returned 10 this country and studied law. He is master Of several languages, includ- ing Italian and Yiddish.
