Now. I want to ask the Senator this question: Would it not be better. as a matter of merit. as a matter of arriving at a scientific certainty. if we should delay this problem for a year. making it subject to the study of a joint committee. in order that we may add to the basis of immigration features which the law does not now providefor example. a better system of selectivity. in order that we might have set up certain priorities subjecting themselves to tile quotas in the various countriesso that when we do .come to the final determination of this question men will not rise as ignorantly as I did a moment ago to present a problem to the Senator that goes back to the very beginning. to the meaning of the words "national origins" ? I am asking for the Senators opinion upon the advantage of a better study than the problem has had up to this time. and so far as the presentation of this debate has exposed that subject.
