The article states that out of a group of 600 aliens crossexamined at the port in one month exactly 20 expreesed an intention to go to work with their hands. The other 580 wanted to become peddlers. It is not work but easy money that inspires the modern immigrant. According to the Department of Justice. 90 per cent of all the agitation of the country today Is due to aliens. They are not only fanning the flames of ararchy but are filling our institutions and increasing the tax burden of all the people. AccordIng to the commissioner of immigration at Ellis Island. there are 43.000 men. women. and children In various New York Institutions who came here as Immigrants and who entered because of a let down of the immigration law with respect to the entrance of mental defectives. The foreignborn population represents 14.70 per cent oe our people. yet they supply 20.63 per cent of the population of our jails. almshouses. insane asylums. and other puldic institutions. At this point I want to insert some very interesting and instructive data on aliens: ALIrNs DATA.
