N.Y. Mayor pleads for more relief money. Washington, D.C., Jan. 9. New York's Mayor Fiorello La Guardia, appearing before the House Appropriations Subcommittee today, proposed that Congress provide $915,000,000 to finance relief until July 1 instead of the $875,000,000 recommended by President Roosevelt.
