President. the discrimination. according to the 1890 basis. is all in their favor. of that there can be no denial. However. I wishto show now that at any time we can take that 70year period as a basis and build up immigration quotas upon it. and do it thoroughly. do it in an understandable manner. and do it ifi a way that will invite far greater confidence than the nationalorigins plan can possibly bring. On the bottom line of the table hanging on the wall of the Chamber. which. however. is so low that Senatorsin their seats can not succeed in seeing it. I have given the figures of quotas which would prevail in the event the nationalorigins clause should become effective. as it will in- the event th6 Congress does not repeal that clause of the immigration act before July 1 of this year. In the case of England. Scotland. Wales. again. they each sent us. dfiring that first 70year period of immigration statistics. 39.380 immigrants annually. They are going to have under the nationalorigins plan pretty nearly twice that number. namely. 65.721.
