| As the great mass of the immigration has
come since the year 1920, the numbers of
| the foreign element in the first and second
| degrees may be estimated with approximate
accuracy from the number of persons of
| foreign birth and parentage given in the
census returns of 1880. While 10. 13S. 1913
immigrants had landed in the United States
from 1920 to the middle of 1850, there were
| III the country in 1880 IA, 4,9jj. .996 persons of
foreign birth, or having one parent foreign
born. If from this sum we take 30, ,252, the
| surprisingly large number of persons of
foreign birth having both parents born in
the United States, who are for all the pur-
poses OF this study natives" we have a
population foreign in the first and second
degrees of 1892, IA, of whom 6,679,943
were foreign-bon. This number still
does not represent quite all the
new element, since large number
Of small children figuring in the
census of 1880 must have had parents of
the younger generation of the new ropula-
ton born upon our soil. There is no
record of these third-dcgree foreigners, of
course, and we must proceed without re-
gard to them, simply assuming that the
figures relating to the old stock embrace a
certain number, not proportionatcly large,
who belong to the new. We may judge of
the relation in which this mass of people of
foreign birth and parentage stands to the
population which we are accustomed to re-
gard as the leaven of our nationality-the
stock to which all other elements are to be
aSsimilated if possible by comparing it
with the white population of native parent
age. The whole population of the country,
minus persons of foreign birth and parent
age, native negroes and Indians, is 2S,601,-
676. This is not much more than half the
populatiOn-[J. E. Chamberlin, in Septem-
