10 NATIONAL ORIGINS PROVISION OF TMMIGRATION LAW 
Mr. Boos. Norway is nearly two-thirds that of Great Britain; 
Sweden, nearly two-fifths. Does that answer your question, Senator 
eed ¢ 
Senator Remp. That answers it; yes. Mr. Boggs, will the re- 
port that is about to be made by your quota board, in your opinion, 
make any material change in the quotas as transmitted to the Senate 
a year ago? 
Mr. Boees. Not very materially. 
Senator Reep. Would a postponement of the national-origins 
clause for another year give us any considerable amount of increased 
accuracy or certainty in the quotas? 
Mr. Boges. I do not see how it can. 
Senator Rerp. The quota board has finished its work, practically? 
Mr. Boges. Yes, sir. . 
Senator Copzranp. Mr. Boggs, when ‘you spoke about Sweden, 
does your reply mean that, if the person in Sweden wanted to come 
to the United States, he would have half the chance of one from 
Great Britain? 
Mr. Bocas. Under the national origins he would have, say, two- 
fifths the chance of a person from Great Britain. 
Senator Coperanp. And the man from N orway would have about 
two-thirds the chance? 
Mr. Boges. That is it. 
Senator Rep. And under the 1890 basis, how are his chances? 
Mr. Boges. Norway, about three and one-fourth times as large as 
that of Great Britain, in proportion to population. and Sweden, 
slightly more than twice. 
Senator Ruep. At present the Norwegian has three times as much 
zhance to come to America as an Englishman ? 
Mr. Boeas. That is true. 
Senator Rep. At present the Swede has three times the chance 
to come as an Englishman. 
Mr. Boees. The Norwegian has three times the chance, at the 
present time. : 
Senator Rerp. And under the national-origing plan the Norwegian 
has two-thirds the chance? 
Mr. Bogos. Yes, sir. 
Senator Reep. At present he has three times the chance, but under 
the new plan two-thirds? 
Mr. Boaes. Approximately. 
Senator Ree. Let us have this clear in the record. Under the 
present plan he has three times the chance that the Englishman has 
to come? 
Mr. Boges. That is true. 
Senator Rrep. And under the new plan of national origins he 
would have two-thirds the chance that the Englishman has? 
Mr. Bocas. That is true. 
Senator Rep. And then, likewise, with the man from Sweden, 
now he has—what did you say? 
Mr. Bogas. A little more than twice, 
Senator Reep. A man from Sweden has a little more than twice 
the chance of the Englishman. Under the new plan he would have 
two-fi "ths the chance ?
