Denki Roren visitors to the United States. year after year make the same delicate but meaningful inquiry. The form of the question will vary but essentially it is the same always: "How can Americans profess to be close friends of Japan and of the Japanese people and still permit this offensive and insulting Japanese quota to persist? Dont Americans know what potent ammunition it provides to the Japanese Communists and dont we know how successfully the Japanese Communist Party and the Communist parties of southeast Asia have exploited the discriminatory quota system?" Its not just difficult. its nearly impossible. for me and for other IUE representatives. to explain convincingly to our Denki Roren brethren why we should limit our democratic partner. Japan. to a quota of 185 immigrants a year while assigning our enemy. Soviet Russia. a total of 2.697 immigrants. Why is Japan. our strongest ally in Asia. held to fewer than 200 immigrants a year. while Iron Curtain Rumania is allowed 289. Iron Curtain Czechoslovakia 2.859. Iron Curtain Poland a whopping 6.488. and Communist Yugoslavia 942?
