Here is the next one. 1 quote his words: In so far as the Bureau of Prohibition itself is concerned. some additional funds could be advantageously used at the present time in increased investigational activities and in a wellconsidered educational program. He admits that he needs it right at this time and can use it. Looking to the future. it will no doubt be advantageous to provide additional funds for increased border patrol of the Customs Service and an increased customs force at some of the principal ports of entry. and increased equipment for the Coast Guard. In almost every paragraph he says that he could use increased funds to help in this matter. Why is he against it if he could use more funds. and why does he wait for years and never make a recommendation to the Senate or to Congress for additional funds?
