Last year 57.765 Mexicans were legally admitted into our country. The additional number entering in violation of law is too uncertain to even hazard a guess. Immigration from Mexico has no legal limitation. and many good citizens without work can trace their lack of food and clothes directly to this Mexican door held open by Congress for the benefit of selfish employers of cheap labor. The recent agitation for a repeal of the nationalorigins method of selecting immigrants has caused the eyes of the thoughtful people of this country to focus upon our immigration policy. The issue in this question is simple. Our Government has adopted a policy of restricted immigration from European countries. while permitting unrestricted immigration from Canada. Mexico. and South America. National origin limits the number admitted to 150.000. while. if repealed. the number would be 168.000.
