Excerpt from Foreign-Born Neighbors
There are seven states in the Union where the Immigra tion Problem is most acute. At the head of these stand Massachusetts and Rhode Island. These two common wealths have, estimated in percentage of population, more foreign-born peoples than any state in the Union. The serious industrial, social and political questions, precipitated by more than thirty percent of the population being peoples of varied tongues, customs, and habits, have commanded the attention of statesmen, educators, reformers and philanthropists. Ev ery productive organization in the two states have, again and again, discussed the Problem of Immigration; and both state and municipal legislators have readily enacted laws planned to meet the ills specified by intelligent public-spirited individuals. The laws designed to wipe out the black spots due to immigra tion were welcomed; the police executing these laws have rendered valiant service; the courts have interpreted and en forced these laws; and, yet, we all feel we want something more before the Immigration Problem is solved. We need a sane, simple, and practical plan to meet the foreigner's needs we need sympathetic, intelligent, and patriotic men to take the foreigner by the hand and teach him what we mean in a Democracy by the tie that binds.
This manual, by Dr. George W. Tupper, is an exposition of sane, simple and practical methods to help in the process of assimilating foreign-speaking men. They are now in practise, and back of them are five years' experience. Thou sands of foreigners have been helped by these plans. They can be used by any group of men, moved by enthusiasm for humanity. The author in giving this concise, illuminating, and pictorial presentation of the Problem of Immigration in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, together with tested and tried plans for its solution, is contributing a treatise of in estimable worth to every patriot in these states.
