But the fact remains that we are reserving 50 percent for the Polish people on the basis of their 6.500 yearly quota and the same is true insofar as the Latvian. Estonian. and Lithuanian quota is concerned. If a given countrys quota is considerably high. naturally the percentage will be greaterif it is small. such as the Balts quotathe 50 percent reserved for future immigration is correspondingly reduced. I urge that the amendment be defeatedwe have a good billit is fairdo not load it down with amendments thereby Insuring its defeat because if such happens there will be no relief for any nationality.
