Scotland. and Wales. with 31.714. Under the quota of 1890. these northern and western European countries. who form the basic stock of America. had a total of 139.622. Under the national origins act they are now permitted only 123.069a loss of 16.553 from the northern and western European countries. Now. let us see what happens In the southern and eastern European countries. where we have had great immigration during the later years and who do not represent the basic pioneer stock of America in any appreciable degree. Austria under the 1890 quota were permitted 785. under. the national origins act they get 1.413--a gain of nearly 100 per cent. Czechoslovakia were permitted 3.073 under the 1890 quota. under the national origins act they get 2.874. or a loss of 199. and I will say here that Czechoslovakia is the only eastern European country that has a loss when we adopt the nationalorigins plan as against the quota of 1890. Greece under the 1890 quota got 100. under the national origins act they get 384. a gain of nearly 200 per cent. Hungary under the 1890 quota got 473. under the national origins act. 869a gain of nearly 100 per cent. Italy under the 1890 quota were permitted 3.845. under the national origins act. 5.802a gain for Italy of 1.957. almost 60 per cent. Latvia under the 1890 quota were allowed 142. under the national origins act they are allowed 236. Lithuania under the 1890 quota were allowed 344. under the national origins act they are allowed 386. Poland under the 1890 quota were allowed 5.982. under the national origins act they are allowed 6.524. Russia under the 1890 quota were permitted 2.248. under the national origins act they are permitted 2.784a gain of over 20 per cent. Yugoslavia under the 1890 quota were permitted 671. under the nationalorigins quota they are permitted 845. I have taken all the northern and western European countries and put them in one group. and I say for myself. and I believe for the patriotic organizations and people of America that they prefer. if we are to have immigration. that it come from northern and western Europe and from the stock of that country in Canada. as against the inmigration from southern and eastern Europe and from Asia.
