Some argument has been advanced on the question of certain nationals failing to assimilate. What is the best test of assimilation? To me it is what percentage of immigrants from different countries indicate their permanence and love for America by becoming a citizen. The records of the census of 1920 are interesting in this respect. I will simply read it and allow you to draw your own conclusions: The census of 1920 shows that the foreign born from England proper. who were here when that census was taken and who were naturalized. Is 64.8. Scotland. 65.6. Wales. 73.5. Ireland. 72.3.
