In this debate that the growth of the cities was more -to be accounted for by the migration from the country districts to the city than by the movement of the immigrant class toward such centers.

It appears from the census of 1910 that during the 10 preceding years the increase in the native white population of New York City was 30 per cent. while the increase In the foreign population of that city was 52.9 per cent.
