If we want to fool ourselves and think we are fooling the American people at the same time. let us vote for the basic ratio as established by the 1890 census. That is the only way that we can vote for it. We must simply lay aside all right and all argument. all question of fair play. and say that we want to accomplish one purpose and one purpose only. namely. the exclusion of immigrants from southern Europe. If that is the purpose then write it into your law. If it is not the purpose. adopt a ratio based on something a little more up to date than 35 years ago.
