MORE“DRY” FUNDS Louisiana Senator Declares $9,000,000 Inadequate for Law Enforcement. and | { |ASKS FOR $100,000,000 ch livi I'm Accuses Anti-Saloon Officials of Not Wishing to See Country Made Into Sahara. Ridiculing the appropriation of $9,000.000 carried in the Treasury bill as entirely insufficlent for the en- forcement of the Volstead prohibition act, Senator Broussard of Loulsiana, a strong opponent of prohibition, challenged the “drys” in and out of Congress to support an appropriation of $100,000,000 for enforcing the law. He charged the Antl-Saloon League offictals were willing to have half- way measures adopted 50 as to keep thelr own jobs, intimating that real prohibition would not suit them.

He quoted from speeches made by Dr. Perley A. Baker, general super- intendent of the league, and Wayne | B. ‘Wheeler, general counsel. Dr. Baker, he said, declared that 20 per cent of the federal judges were drunkards and scoundrels and should be impeached or in the penitentiary. Senator Broussard quoted Mr. Wheeler as saying that the Anti- loon League controlled Congress aud could put through such legislation as the league wanted. The senator challenged the league to bring in a bill appropriating for prohibition enforcement $100,000.000, the amount which, he said, would be needed to enforce it in any adequate manner. Immediately after Senator Brous- sand concluded his speech Mr. Wheel- er put out a statement declaring he had been incorrectly quoted. TRAVELERS AID DRIVE ON.
