- Notes
- See pp. 20-21, note 1, reflecting upon Isa. 65:22 and the movement of Jews expelled from Russia to Palestine where the country is experiencing an enormous growth in population and urban infrastructure. Other countries, the author cautions, may expel their Jews, and Great Britain and the United States "are preparing to erect barriers against them." Thompson suggests that the growing influx of Europe’s unassimilable lower classes justifies our restrictionist policies (pp. 14-15). In addition, he endorses the exclusion of "Asiatics with their unmentionable vices" from the United States.
