Oh. no. I heard the Senators speech. Everybody knows that if the Norbeck amendment shall prevail then the question of how many people may come into this country will son be left merely to the varying acts of Congress. and we shall have no fixed Immigration policy at all. It means in the long run that we shall abandon our restrictive immigration. because If there be enough votes in the Senateand there seem to beto repeal the national origins plan. it is reasonable to assunlethat those who have heretofore approved that plan have gone over and joined those who were perfectly willing to have immigration unrestricted in order to get rid of the nationalorigiIhs plan. Everyone is entitled to his own interpretationbut no one. I take it. can be mistaken about what this amendment means. As. in my opinion. everybody who is in favor of relaxing our immigration restrictions is for the Norbeck amendment. it means the end of any intelligent restriction of immigration. It means to disregard the appeal of every patriotic society in America. it means to disregard the appeal of the men who offered to lay down their lives that America might remain American. We had just as well face the facts.
