There is no honest purpose in that. You should pass a fair law. Pass a law based on a quota representing the flood tide of immigration. not a quota on a basis of what was not coming in. I do not like that kind of thing. It is a cheat. I would not vote for it. I will vote for restriction on a fair principle. I do not believe in an immigration that wants to come to America just because it wants to run away from the burdens of Europe. That is not what we want. That is a negative immigration. We want a positive immigration that comes to America for Americas sake. for libertys sake. and for justice and to help the great cause of our Nation.
