Republican, higan. ton and Black, Texas, Democrats, in de- fending adulteration of alcohol by the bureau as one means of enforcement. After attacking the diplomatic immu- nity that permits foreign diplomats to bring liquor into the country, La Guardia sought unsuccessfully to raise the appropriation total to $25.000.000 and then to $75.000.000. He has con- tended that proper enforcement can be obtained only with greatly increased ex- penditures. The House found a hearty laugh in an exchange between La Guardia and Representative Green. Democrat, Flor- ida. in which the latter declared his State was as “dry as the Sahara Des- ert.” He was replying to La Guardia's assertion that Florida was wetter than New York. but he got no further, be- cause the House members laughed too loudly.
