Analysis: This can be related to the immigration quotas enforces in the early 1900s. Because of the quotas, only about 3% of the immigrants were allowed into the United States. Only the finest immigrants were allowed to come over so that our work force and manufacturing industries would increase. Quotas were put on immigration because immigrants were overpowering our workforce and taking jobs away from Americans.
