It seems to me that the unfairness of the present method of using the 1910 census is vividly shown by the composition of our whole population at the present time as it appears in this circle [indicating]. Seventyfour per cent of all of us. whiteand black. are from northwestern Europe. at some time or other. and about 78 per cent who are white are from northwestern Europe. Although that is true. are all of us who were born in this country to be ignored and only the foreign born of us represented in fixing these quotas. and only 48 per cent instead of 78 per cent allotted to northwestern Europe?
