Explanation:

The Immigration Act of 1924, also known as the Johnson - Reed Act, established quotas based on national origin. It aimed to preserve the existing ethnic composition of the US population, in essence trying to stop significant changes to the US population demographics. It restricted immigration rather than allowing unrestricted immigration or encouraging people to come. It severely limited Asian immigration and also imposed quotas on Central - European immigrants.

It was an effort to stop the US population from changing.
