I do not think our treaties even -can do that. That will be settled by the people of the Old World who are the most immediately concerned. .4914.--. I think. for my part. this test laid down in the proposed quailfication of the immigrant to read will let in more of those who - are dangerous than it excludes. The conclusions I wish to draw from these figures are that whatever the character of the adult immigrant who has come here in the last 10 years it is evident that his children have used the advantages better than we. The nativeborn child of * foreignborn parents shows a lower per cent of illiteracy than the child of the nativeborn American. The reason that I can see for this is that those of foreignborn parents who are here use their advantages better because they appreciate them.
