No. The gentleman Is In error. 1890. Why was 1890 taken as the basis for the immigration stockthe new stock that was to come in by virtue of the act of 1924? I will tell you why. It was deliberate. it was not accidental. The year was deliberately chosen because before 1890 the Aryan races came in in profusion. but the Italian race came in after 1890. I am looking at the gentleman from Connecticut who is of that very distinguished race and a very eminent son of that race. Why was 1890 taken? Because they did not want any more Latins in the- country.
