Prohibition Funding Battle Splits Congress Over 24 Million Defense
The House voted 240 to 141 to send the deficiency appropriation bill to conference amid a three hour debate on prohibition enforcement funding. The Senate amendment adding 24 million for enforcement drew strong opposition from Secretary Bellon and Rep Cramton, while Republicans and Southern Democrats backed the measure. McBride watched from the gallery as Cooper argued for more money to boost enforcement or wait for Hoover’s stance.

Highway Funds Bill Adopted 80-20 Plan After Reconsideration
In a heated House session Delegate RME Hiner led a successful move to reconsider the road bond bill. The measure, initially passed unanimously, adopts an 80-20 distribution plan for highway funds with 80 percent to be spent under class A designation and 20 percent at the state road commission’s discretion. The decision followed vigorous debate and procedural rulings, with Hiner arguing the public favored the 80-20 split and opponents contending the plan was already codified into general law.
