We could afford. for a couple of years at least. to make the percentage. based on the census of 1910. 3 per cent instead of 2 per cent. I think that the Jews and the Italians. and the others who would be cut off under the operation of a quota based on the census of 1890if we were to go back to the census of 1890. which would be a wicked discrimination against those from Poland. from Russia. and from Italyhave proven that they have Gods right to tread upon American soil. The soil which the Pilgrims have sanctified is the home of the refugee. Ay. call it holy ground. The soil where first they trod.
