I think what we will come to eventually is the selective immigration plan. that will base our immigration quotas upon the character and class of immigrants who will contribute most and best to the American population. What is the effect of the present law? The effect is to cut the German quota in two and turn it over to Great Britain. That is the major effect. and the question which comes to my mind is. Is that a good thing to do for Alherica? I do not care how it affects Great Britain and Germany. but I do care how it affects America.
