IMMIGRATION CUT
BY HOOVER POLICY
Stimson Says Rigid Enforce
ment Keeps Away $4,000
Aliens Eligible for Entrance.

Rigid enforcement of the immigration
policy as announced by President Hoover
one year ago, was declared today to be
responsible for the non-admission into
the United States Of about 100000 aliens
who normally could have entered.
In letter Secretary Stimson told
the President that SO per cent of the
normal influx of quota immigrants had
been declined visas during the fiscal
year ended July /.
The Presidents policy was promul-
gated because of widespread unemploy-
ment in the United States.
The Secretary of State reported that
SO per cent of the normal influx had
been diverted during the nine-month
period, from September 8, 1880. when
the presidential order was issued, to
July /, 1881.
Marked Decreases Shown.
Throughout the year, Stimson said,
only 48,528 quota immigration visas
we're issued by consular officers abroad,
AS compared with the annual quota of
1914.
The greatest drop in visaS issued was
shown for Great Britain and Northern
Ireland with quota of 65,7l2, of which
only lO.9l1, or IL per cent, received
visas Germany showed the next larg-
est drop, numerically, with only 9769
visas, or 38 per cent Of a quota Of 25,-
EST.
In addition to the reduction of
quota immigration into the United
States during the past fiscal year."
Stimson said, 1.-The immigration of aliens
rot subject to quota limitations also
showed marked decrease. A total of
$500 non-quota immigration visas
were issued during the fiscal year, as
compared with 107, 469 similar visas is
sued during the previous year.
Many Enter From Canada.
These figures represent decline of
STA per cent in the number of nom
quota immigrants who received viSas.
This reduction occurred principally in
the number of aliens who applied fer
non-quota status as natives of certain
countries in the Western Hemisphere
and as former residents of the United
States.
Canada, with 1854 non-quota immi-
grafton visas issued, showed by far the
