I have before me the figures on the African race furnished up to June 30. 1914. the end of the fiscal year. by the Immigration Department for the whole United States. giving as well the number of illiterates that came. The whole number for the fiscal year ending June 30. 1914. was 8.447. the number of illiterates was 1.805. the percentage of illiteracy was 23.3. This is what I was attempting to give when the Senator from Utah was interrogating the. Senator from Mississippi. in order that we might understand clearly just what is the situation with regard to that matter.
