Mr. Rogers. the socalled nationalorigins provisions. I quote from his amendment a follows:* After July 1. 1926. the annual quota of each nationality shall bear the same ratio to said maximum total number of immigrants as the number of inhabitants of the United States having that national origin shall bear to the whole number of inhabitants (according to the census of 1920). other than the descendants of Involuntary immigrants. On or before April 1. 1926. said officials shall jointly proclaim and make known the quotas of each nationality. determined as aforesaid. and thereafter the said quotas shall continue with the same effect as if specifically stated herein. and shall be subject to correction and readjustment only If it shall be made to appear to the satisfaction of said officials that an error of fact has occurred in said estimate or in sad proclamation. The debate will be found on pages 62266229 of the CONGaRSSioNAL Icpcoa.
