The Senate amendment which we have under consideration amends subdivisions (b) and (e) of section 11. The amendments proposed in the Senate bill change the quota number or the number of immigrants that can be annually allowed to enter our country. because if the Senate resolution is adopted it changes the number of immigrants that will be annually permitted to come to this country. The result will be to cut that number from 165.000. in round figures. to 150.000. My amendment. which is a change in subdivision (a) of section 11. goes exactly to the same thing. It will cut the number from 165.000. as it is now. to onehalf of that number.
