.LAUDS CUTTING
! Of Immigrants
Declares Measure Hating In
fIux Of Foreigners Came in
Nick Of Time.

Discussing the working Of the i'm
migration restriction act. which at
the end Of this month win have been
effective one year. Congressman
Albert johnson. chairman Of the
Committee on Immigration and
Naturalization, last night said:
"Ip my opinion the act limiting
immigration to $4,000 for the fiscal
year ending June 80 came in the
nick Of time. It has saved the Uni
ted States in that year from an In
flux Of fully ono and one-half mill
Lion immigrants at a time when we
could neither assimilate nor employ
them.
"Under the quota restrictions ESQ.,
637 were admitted to May 81, while
about 2.787 were admitted temporar-
lily for reasons Of humanity and be-
cause Of difficulties In getting the
new law into operation, while 1,446
were turned back because Of ex-
hausted quotas. Debarred for all
causes in eleven months were IL ,066.
which I believe is the record, and
which Is still not enough. Too many
diseased. demented and defective ere
being admitted.
The law has been extended, ana
during the coming year win be rigid
ly enforced. believe Congress-
would be Justified In amending the
law 30 az to give all countries q
base quota OF about 500. and. in ad-
dition thereto not to exceed . per
cent Of the number OF aliens Ia the
United States, as shown by the CEN
SUE of 1910. That would lessen the
difficulties arising from very small
quotas now given to certain coun-
tries. and would lessen the large
quotas awarded to other countries.
IT believe that all quotas should
consist only Of persons eligible to
citizenship under our present natur-
alization laws. An amendment to
that effect would end the difficulties
which arise from our "gentlemen's
agreement" with Japan. There is no
REASON why we should admit to be-
como residents Of the United States
persons who never can become citi-
zens Of the United States"
