In recent years the American Govern. ment has deemed it necessary to place greater restrictions on immigration genér ally. It began in 1921 by declaring that immigrants from my nation would not be admitted in any one year to the extent of more than three per cent. of the nationals of the country who were residing in America in the year 1910. Delinite quotas for each country were accordingly fixed on this basis. But still greater restriction is considered peces sary, and the new Bill provides not only for the reduction of the percentage from three to two, but for taking the statis- ties of 1980 instead of 1910), bais for the ealculation of each country's "quota. Moreover, the new Bill denies entry to foreigners who have no right of naturalisation in the United States. This is where the new enactment dis
