But as a matter of fact he is trying to do something now that was not done yesterday. I know it can be camouflaged by saying the totals are the same. but to go back to the law that went into effect last July certain countries were reduced 66 per cent. That created an acute condition. because there were quota immigrants waiting. For instance. Denmarks quota was reduced from about 3.000 to about 1.000 by that action. because under the nationalorigins theory they get only 1.100. and the Senator from Georgia now proposes to reduce that number to 550. whereas the amendment adopted yesterday would have allowed them to remain where they are now.
