On a worldwide level it would be between 18.000.000 and 19.000.000. It seems to me that the only sound and sensible way to deal with this problem is to continue the fundamental philosophy. and any departure from it would result in nobody knows what. I am not prepared at this moment to say to our British cousins. our strongest allies during this hour of danger. that we do not want them to continue to have the same opportunities they have always had ever since we have had an immigration law. and that we are going to pass on those quota numbers to those people who yesterday were shooting at us. It certainly seems to me that if there is to be a departure from our fundamental philosophy. then it ought not to come until there has been a full and complete analysis of the census of 1950. Our committee has requested of the Bureau of the Census that this analysis should be made.
