Now. the percentage of aliens in the population of New York State is somewhere around 31 or 32 per cent. so that the percentage of criminals is substantially thQ same as the percentfge of aliens in the population. Then here is the unfairness. not of the gentleman from Pennsylvania [Mr. Eom0NDS]. but of the statistics in all this. unless it is explained: Of course the nativeborn child of foreignborn parents is properly and necessarily classed as a nativeborn citizen. because he is. and therefore when they charge 1i1) the statistics as to crimes they do not take into account the very high standing of the children of the immigrants. They class them. of course. as native born. as they ought. and do not take them into account. I will tell you what these statistics are largely made up of.
