The same thing is true of England. and a comparatively small number will come from there. Oh. but these people would be welcome. because they no longer desire to come . but as to those who dothat is another story. Inasmuch as Italian immigration is comparatively new. under this rule the number of Italians who might be annually admitted would be reduced to a very small number. as would those coming from Russia. Hence by means of a mathematical formula. regardless of the welfare of the country and of the behests of justice. right. and equity. presto. the problem is solved. In my judgment it would be ten times more honorable to declare that we will not henceforth receive any immigrant from Italy or from Russia or froi Hungary or from any other European country south of a certain latitude than to try to accomplish such a result by this Indirect and tortuous method. which savors of unfairness and injustice and which is entirely dependent upon the accidental operation of an arithmetical rule empirically devised. How would it work? When would the dead line of exclusion be reached?.
