Immigration suspension to be sought in final days of session
Washington May 24 CHSIAA plans action to suspend immigration until nationwide unemployment improves. Rep Albert Johnson Republican of Washington says a surprise move will force a House vote and expects President Hoover support. He cites demands for a moratorium and says the Harris Bill would set a Mexican quota around 1000 per year. The 1924 act is to be amended to adjust Japan's quota to ease tensions while keeping racial eligibility rules.
