That precedes the unusual conditions. In other words. I gather from the gentleman that regardless of what the effect of this study by the Bureau .of the Census may be. whether it would say more Polish people would come in or might become eligible or more Africans or anything else. it is a matter of principle that we have had in all. of our original immigration bills. The principle is to use a quota date or a census date which best reflects the relative proportion in the United States of groups of our population to that of other countries of the world. I think the gentleman will agree with the fairness of that principle.
