Now is the time to adjust the differences between the Allies. while we are fighting shoulder to shoulder. and while we see eye to eye with each other. No one. however. should have an exaggerated idea about the ultimate effects of the proposed legislation. Its enactment does not mean free entry of the Chinese into our country. It does not mean that in the ordinary sense we would lessen the restrictions against the great mass of Chinese who might wish to come to this country. It means merely two things. It means that China will be placed on an equality with other nations so far as the quota system is concerned. and the quota will operate against the Chinese as it does against all nationalities.
