I am coming directly to that point in my third inquiry. I have answered two questions. the first being. Have we too many foreign born in this country? and I have shown you that we do not have any more today proportionately than in Lincolns time. the second question being. Is the flow of immigration today too heavy? and I have demonstrated that the flow of immigration is less today than it has been for a century. Let us now turn to our next inquiry. Do the immigrants colonize too heavily in big cities? Unquestionably the concentration of foreigners in our big cities has had much to do with increasing the prejudice which exists against them. The abnormal herding together of strange people in a few of our metropolitan cities makes the natives unduly conscious of the presence in their midst ofpeople with strange languages. strange customs. and unknown and mysterious aspirations.
