If such a basis is adopted. there can be no question then of discrimination. because it will treat all races alike on the basis of their actual proportion of the existing population. I think it is of very great importance to adopt this Lmendmeat for that precise purpose and to allow time for the officials of the Census Bureau and other experts to make the necessary calculations. It is evident that we are going to retain the quota system in some form. and It ought to be placed. if possible. on a permanent basis. That can only be done by taking the total population of the country as a basis for the distribution. If that shall be done.
