Mr.. sydney G. Fisher of Philadelphia,
shows in an article in the Forum for Janu'
airy. on ..Alien Degradation of American
Character" how most of the fathers of-the
republic were utterly opposed to anything
like promiscuous immigration, from Wash
ington down. He follows the subject his
tofically and points out that after the be-
ginning of our great Immigration there was
q sharp turn in the American character and
American work, that we have not been the
same people since rs before; that crime
has increased; that renality has increased /;
that there has been loss Of spirit in politics,
and that the only great and properly Amer
lean literature we have produced owes its
inspiration to what was practically homo
gencous population and the ideals that grew
out Of Il. lie does not argue for IN alb
snrily rigid prohibition of immigrants. but
he points out that American character has
suffered and American ideals have been
lowered By our promiscuous hospitality.
