Wingo and La Guardia Mix Hot
Shots Over “Pork ~
by Charles p. stewart
NEA Service Writer
i Washington, March 6, —Congress-
• man Wingo, of Arkansas, finding
i fault, a few days ago, with a $385,-
000 appropriation tp improve the fa
eiftte of one of the federal government
' buildings in Manhattan, said some
i sharp things to Congressman La
i Guardia, of New York, for having
i i favored the appropriation under dle
! cussian. ' '
! Wingo questioned if LaGuardia
i even knows what a facade ig.< He
, Implied that the “pork” (that ,Is, the
. appropriation, for this district) was
. all the New Y'orker was interested
■A x -
, V , •* *
LaGuardia replied that he did, too,
know what a facade is.
To illustrate, he/said that
(a very dressy, imposing-looking in
dividual) has an extremely, fine fa
cade. Otherwise he admitted that he
agreed with Wingo—a facade isn’t 1
nearly as important aa what’s behind
it. _ 4
However, ho wanted to state that,
unlike Wingers facade, that New
York federal gbvernment building's
faeacla really 'has got something im
portant behind it.
. • *
Wingo*! hereupon made some rather
disparaging remarks concerning La-
Gimrdia’s war record, observing that
LaGuardia made it entirely on the
Italian front, which Wingo didn't
seem to think amounted to much.
LaGuaydia answered that, such as
it was. he did have a war record, even
one made on the Italian front.
Wingo then referred to LaGuardia
as "that thing.”
** * i
Upon this a lot of other congress
men made points of order (darn ’em,
for spoil-sports) and that ended- the r
row but it was (Hi unusually good ope
while it lasted.
