The numbers do not seem to be easily accessible. Hoover's most noted action was to change the way that visas were issued to potential immigrants. Immigrants had to demonstrate that they would not be jobless and dependent on welfare upon arrival in the US. Also, they could not state they had a job waiting for them -- this was banned as importing contract labor. The annual number of Mexicans (legally) entering the US was reduced from 60,000 to about 6,000.
