S2Sr STOP-GAP IMMIGRATION KILL "This bill,"' said a New York consre.s.snian in the House debate on the immigration respriclion bill, "will extinguisii the lijrhlof hope and progserr throughout the world." It can hardly be so bad as that. The measure would ad mit 3 per cent of the nationals whe were in the country when the 1910 census was taken, and that would let in UOO.OOO or more in the course of a year. The fact that it would involve incidental discrimination against certain races that were not strongly represented in our population until after 1910 is not regarded by most citizens as an overpowerly objection. The older Americans confess a frank preference for the northwestern Europeans who, intentionally or not, are somewhat favored by this bill. ( sv Nevertheless it is confessedly a stop-gap piece of legisla tion, with many imperfections. It would work injustice in large numbers of cases, and it would not solve the American immigration problem, which is probably the largest of all our national problems, and the one of longest standing.
