Session #68 · 1923–25

Speech #680100589

The clerk of the committee calls my attention. to the fact that there is an item on page 58 of the bill. which was put in by the House. of $3.500.000 for a census of agriculture. to carry out a law that Congress has passed. That practically accounts for the increase in the appropriations in the bill for the coming fiscal year over those for the current fiscal year. Let me say also. that the House added over a million dollars for the enforcement of the immigrationi law. Those two items alone account for the increase in appropriations for the year 1925 over that of 1924. Those increases were considered absolutely essential on the floor of the House.
