President. they are not looked upon as human beings. The McCarran bill reenacts this unjustifiable exclusion. Thus 15.000.000 Americans are eliminated from consideration in computing quotas. a discriminatory device for shaving the quotas down still further. While the McCarran bill perpetuates and extends every discriminatory and fraudulent device in the present law for cutting down on immigration. it comes up with one or two new gimmicks of questionable validity and very unfortunate effect. Under present law. parents of citizens have a first preference in every quota. Under the McCarran bill. parents of citizens are dropped down to a lower preference.
