At this stage I do not believe I would. for this reason. that we have been admitting something like 150.000 or 160.000 immigrants each year for the last five years. and parts of families have come to this country and have made their plans for the bringing of the rest of the families in the following years as fast as the rest of the families could get on to the quota lists of their countries. and hundreds and thousands of people have been looking forward to that time. While I think eventually we will come to a further restriction of immigration than we are enjoying now. I do not think now is the time to propose any such drastic cut as would be brought about by a cut to 1 per cent from 2 per cent of the total foreignborn population found in the United States in 1890.
