 \nAre you a foreign born American who came here after 1890?If so do youthink you ought to be counted in determining immigration quotas?  \nDo you realize that well-organized alien blocs wish to repeal NationalOrigins at the extra session of Congress,and replace it with the 1890 foreignborn system which counts only the 1890 foreign born in determining quotas?  \nThe National Origins system,provides that each country can send suchproportion of 150,000 immigrants each year as that country has contributed toour whole population.It is an all-American policy.  \nThe 1890 foreign born system says that each country can send two per-cent of those born in that country counted in our 1890 census.It is a foreign-born policy,not an American policy and it is not even an all-foreign born policyfor it does not count the foreign born who came after 1890.It says that menwhose fathers fought with Grant or Lee,and who themselves fought with Persh-ing,are not good enough to be counted.  \nAnd it is a grossly inaccurate basis.  \nDo you know that no one knows except by estimate who of our 1890foreign born were born within the present boundaries of Germany,France,Poland,Russia,Jugoslavia,Czecho-slovakia,Albania,Austria,and Hungary?All those countries have changed boundaries or have become countries since1890 and there are no figures which can tell us accurately who were our 1890foreign born from each of those countries.They have to be estimated andthey are more estimated as a count of the foreign born than the Origins figuresare as an apportionment of our entire population.  \nMoreover,the 1890 foreign born system is grossly unfair as a cross sec-tion of our entire population,since the 1890 foreign born does not representour whole population,because it gives no account to the native stock,or thelater immigrant stock,and gives swollen quotas to severa countries.  \nYet alien blocs want to kill National Origins in behalf of the unfair 1890system.It is the first step to knocking out all restrictionA prominent Houseleader,who has declared against National Origins,voted twice against the immi-gration restriction law of 1921 and twice against the law of 1924.  \nWhat is back of this demand and on what it is based,is set forth inthis pamphlet.April,1929  \nHEeAee,5i7  \nNational Origins,the Only All-American Immigration Policy  \nThe attempt to postpone or to repeal the National Origins clause ofthe 1924 Immigration Law failed at the last session of Congress and thePresident has proclaimed the National Origins quotas.They will go intoeffect next July.  \nBu","cbCaiefJ1M9ySFf4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiefJ1M9ySFf4","pdf",1292082,"English","# Introduction\n## What National Origins Is","[{\"question\":\"What is the National Origins immigration policy described in the pamphlet?\",\"answer\":\"It states that quotas are allocated so each country can send a proportion of 150,000 immigrants annually based on that country’s contribution to the U.S. population, presenting it as an “all-American” policy.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the pamphlet compare National Origins with the 1890 foreign-born system?\",\"answer\":\"It argues the 1890 system is “foreign-born” and not truly American, because it does not count foreign born who arrived after 1890 and treats people differently based on those rules.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the pamphlet claim the debate is being driven by misrepresentations?\",\"answer\":\"It cites newspaper editorials that assert incorrect ideas about the policy’s census basis (such as relating it to the 1790 census), and it argues these claims result from propaganda or intentional misrepresentation.\"}]","National Origins: The Only All-American Immigration Policy - Introduction | PDF",1789963727]
