<<<<<< But the first quota system was not proposed until 1924.>>>>>>>

That is factually WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have showed you the legislation. Now I'm back to .........what is wrong with you when you refuse to acknowledge the truth!!!! What part of the following do you find hard to accept;

The Emergency Quota Act, also known as the Emergency Immigration Act of 1921, the Immigration Restriction Act of 1921, the Per Centum Law, and the Johnson Quota Act (ch. 8, 42 Stat. 5 of May 19, 1921) restricted immigration into the United States. Although intended as temporary legislation, the Act "proved in the long run the most important turning-point in American immigration policy" [1] because it added two new features to American immigration law: numerical limits on immigration from Europe and the use of a quota system for establishing those limits.

The ONLY reason you would be unwilling to see the words as presented to you is if it's all about "you"! That "you" can't be wrong for some reason. That is the same point used by the other poster who told you how many times you were using "I".
