It has been argued In the most perverted. unfeeling. and nonfactual fashion that the admission of 200.000 unfortunates would affect our housing. jobs. and would bring into this country undesirable Communists. Let us look at these threats a little more dispassionately. Since 1940. the total immigration permitted by our laws fell short by 914.762 persons. If within the immigration laws. as they exist today. we had admitted the 914.762 persons since 1940. there would have been no outcry. It would have been accepted as the normal trend of events. But. now. when we ask for less than 25 percent of that number in the name of humanity and suffering. we are given fantastic examples of impossible -logic.
Identified stereotypes
Immigrants are Communists and will negatively impact housing and jobs.
