The Senator from Pennsylvania said that the Census Bureau had claimed that they had some formula or system by which they could arrive at definite data giving us information of the national origins of our population. I think they made that claim at the time of the passage of the immigration act. The committee which under the law was charged with the work of gathering these data obtained their figures from the Bureau of the Census. and a report from them has been submitted by the President to Congress. . The letter of transmittal and the report referred to are as follows: To the Senate: . I am sending herewith a copy of the letter of transmission which accompanied the report of the Secretary of State. the Secretary of Commerce. and the Secretary of Labor. In the matter of the Immigration law relating to national origins to replace an inaccurate copy which was inadvertently forwarded to the Senate with such report.
