It seems clear to me that protectionist policies have generally been a failure. and at this time. with unemployment and capital shortages being such serious problems for the Nation. it is certainly no time to be denying markets for our products. or jobs for the workers in these industries. I was interested too in the evidence presented by the President that the objective of the Jackson amendment has not been met by its passage. Indeed. Jewish emigration from Russia. the whole idea behind the trade restrictions. has declined since the passage of that legislation. The Jackson amendment was bad in the first place. it is not doing what it was supposed to do. Surely it should be repealed at the first opportunity.
