Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immigration: And Its Effects Upon the United States The great interest now shown by the American pepple in the immigration question, and the very general lack of information as to the conditions and effects of immigration, seem to call for a new handbook on the sub ject. Since the publication oi the late Professor Mayo Smith's book, in 1890, important changes have taken place in immigration itself; and many valuable reports and articles have been published, the most comprehensive of which is, perhaps, the Report of the Industrial Com mission made in 1902. The extent and importance of these changes have naturally resulted in considerable attention being given, in the present volume, to the most recent period, and less to the historical survey of immigration in the earlier part of the country's existence; for, however interesting the history of the matter may be, the problems which confront the American people to-day, with regard to immigration, are of comparatively recent origin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immigration and the Future The war has brought to all the peoples of the world a new epoch in the history of immigration, an epoch in which the achievement of economic assimilation is of prime importance to America and in which the extension of international understanding and sympathy is of great moment to each immigrant and to all countries. If this book shall be an incentive to fuller and more dispassionate discussion, to further research, to the extension of knowledge, and to a more scrupulous attention on the part of thoughtful Americans to the broad aspects of immigration, the end must then be a more humane, sagacious and sane American policy on immigration which will be respected at home and honored throughout the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Immigration to the United States Inasmuch as the book is based almost wholly on per sonal investigation, I am aware that it is open to the inaccuracies which beset that kind of a study. I have selected my sources of information with the greatest care, and have taken pains to avoid making any positive state ments unless I was myself convinced of the truth of them; yet there are undoubtedly errors due to faulty judgment. My hope is that on the whole my opinions and conclusions are not too widely at variance with those which a complete knowledge of all the facts would justify. The same causes have necessitated the frequent use of the first personal pronoun, which is undesirable but unavoidable. In some cases I have felt compelled to suppress the exact identity of my informants, as their position and the nature of the information furnished by them have been such as to lead them to request expressly that their names should not be mentioned.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immigration Restriction: A Study of the Opposition to and Regulation of Immigration Into the United States The United States of America, a nation great in all things, is ours today. To whom will it belong tomorrow? Many years ago our people, proud of their institutions, ambitious, hopeful, altruistic and sympathetic, entertained the thought that their country was destined by an all-wise Providence to serve as the world's great harbor of refuge to which the ill-circumstanced of all nations might repair. The myth of the melting pot grew and flourished. With little or no discrimination we took unto ourselves the blood of all classes and all climes, all races and all religions. Our land was new. It needed development. We yearned for growth in things material. Counting not the ultimate cost, we invited all to come to help us build our houses and our highways, to help us dig our coal and iron and gold, to help us hew and plant and fabricate.

Download or read book Immigration and Labor written by Isaac A. Hourwich and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immigration and Labor: The Economic Aspects of European Immigration to the United States Immigration is treated in this book solely as an economic question. In this the author followed the Immigration Commission, which was created by Congress in 1907, and presented its report in 1910. He was not unaware of the existence of a sentiment against immigration, based upon other than economic considerations. Indeed, most of the first chapter, and a part of the third, are devoted to this aspect of the question. But he concurs in the opinion of the experts of the Immigration Commission, and of the Commission on Industrial Relations, that the objections to immigration are fundamentally of an economic nature. Prior to the war, the only real power behind the agitation in favor of restriction of immigration was organized labor. Our statesmen in Washington took scant notice of the academic disquisitions in the domains of anthropology, ethnology, sociology, eugenics, and political science, which presented the old arguments of the Know-Nothings dressed up in a modern scientific garb. But they listened to union officials who proposed to reward their friends and punish their enemies on election day. Yet the opposition of labor to immigration was outweighed by the influence of capital, which regarded free trade in the labor market as indispensable for the expansion of American industry. The social revolution in Russia and its echoes in Hungary, Germany, and Italy, as well as the growth of the Socialist and Communist parties in all European countries, have aroused a fear of immigration among American capitalists. Labor and capital now united in the demand for restrictive legislation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to Admission to the United States: Immigration Laws of the United States The Immigration and Nationality Act represents no radi cal departure from the trends which manifested themselves in earlier laws. Basically, the national origins' 'quota system is continued in effect, although emphasis is placed on the preference for selected immigrants urgently needed in the United States, provision is made for a more thorough screen ing of aliens, particularly subversives and security risks, and the grounds for exclusion and deportation are widened. In addition, restraints against immigration based on race and sex are eliminated. Procedural changes are Set up in the executive agencies to facilitate enforcement of the law. The two agencies charged with its administration are the Immigration and Naturalization Service headed by a com missioner under the over-all direction of the Attorney Gen eral of the United States and the Bureau of Security and Consular Affairs directed by an administrator under thegeneral supervision of the Secretary of State.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citizenship of the United States These laws, substantially the statutes enacted more than a hundred years ago when our population was less than four millions, and when it was the policy of our government to invite immigration, were ill adapted to our modern conditions, with a population of eighty mil lions and an influx of foreigners of more than a million annually. Under these laws lax and unsatisfactory methods of naturalization had grown up, opening the way to gross frauds against our citizenship, including perjury, false impersonation, and traffic in false and counterfeit certificates of citizenship. Such certificates were sometimes sold to alien criminals to secure their ad mission to the United States, and frequently to procure protection against their home governments. Cases have actually occurred where aliens have landed on our shores for the first time, having in their possession certificates entitling them to the full rights of American citizenship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stranger at Our Gate: America's Immigration Policy At first Chinese alone were excluded. But the categories of ex cludables were swiftly expandedj In 1917, after three different Presidents had vetoed a similar measure, Congress enacted a literacy test for admission aimed at shutting 011 entry of the so-called new immigrants from southern and eastern Europe. The 1917 law also established the notorious Barred Zone provision, sealing ofi' im migration from most of the Orient. When, in turn, these devices were found insufficiently restrictive, they were supplemented by the rigid quota plans of 1921 and 1924 which represented the final hardening of a national anti-immigration mood into a national policy. The basic principles of the 1924 law without the Oriental exclusion provisions were re-enacted in the mccarran-walter Immi gration Act of 1952.
