I. too. have a deep appreciation for the Chinese. However. I would feel a little more pleased about It if we did not regard this measure entirely separate and apart from our general immigration policy. In my own mind I cann9t divorce the two. I have heard it said that there are Members who propose to introduce amendments when the time comes. amendments in respect to all quotas. This bill will put China on a quota equality basis and on terms of equality with other nations. At the same time the amendment to which I refer would propose to cut all quotas of all nations 50 percent or more. I asked the gentleman from Minnesota a moment ago what was desired by our Asiatic allies. He said the chief thing needed is equality. What the Chinese want is a feeling that we regaFd them on terms of equality. and I do so regard them and want our Nation to so regard them.
