Under the budget law we seek now to limit expenditures to income and to use the same judgment an individual would use in the regulation of his own business or family expenditures. I repeat that no sensible man doubts that. irrespective of returns from fines or penalties that lessen actual costs of enforcemeat. Congress will appropriate every dollar asked for by any responsible governmental agency for law enforcenient. and this applies to every governmental activity. whether it concerns the eighteenth amendment. narcotics. immigration. or other law violations. The President has repeatedly called our attention to the necessity of observing Budget recommendations if we are to keep within income and estimates. Congress should do this without Executive warning because the responsibility is ours under the law.
