I was saying. or endeavoring to say. that my opinion is that we ought not to admit a population here to lower the standards of America. but. on the other hand. we ought not to shut out a population which will help us maintain and possibly improve our standing. Now. the question Is how that result can be obtained. It can not be obtained by a racial quota. It can not be obtained by a numerical quota. If it is a bad thing. as my friend from Maryland. for whom I have so much respect. rather intimates to let any foreigners conic in at all. then we ought to stop all immigration.
