Chapter 11

In this chapter Daniel's explains a shift in the history due to the events of the Great Depression and World War One. In the opening paragraph he explains that there was more people leaving the U.S then entering it. My question is where did those individuals leaving the United States go and how did they get the money to do so? this chapter also focused in the LPC regulations to limit who came into the country, and even though we went over it in class I still find it a difficult topic to understand. What was the motive simply the xenophobic attitude brought on by the war? and if that is in fact the reason for the rigidity in immigration laws it is probably safe to assume that the practice continued into World War II, but I would like to know when the rigidity stopped and why.
