President. the amendment which was adopted a few moments ago. about which I argued with some of my colleagues. uses as a basis of admission or refusal of admission. a determination of whether a certain person has 50percent oriental blood. I submit that in many instances there is no way by which it can be determined scientifically that a person has 50percent oriental blood. It was for that reason that the Government of the United States refused to use such a basis in the original immigration law. in other words. at that time the Government refused to use as a basis a determination that a person had 50 percent Norwegian blood. or 50 percent English blood. or 50 percent any other kind of blood.
