;This Man Favors Restricted Immigration 
How much of the antagonism of the 
city to the farmer is due to unrestricted 
immigration? The cities of the East are 
not populated by farmers’ sons and daugh¬ 
ters. Consider the case of New York 
City. The census figures printed in the 
World Almanac for 1922 show that on 
Jan. 1, 1920, New York City had a popu¬ 
lation of 5,663,980 souls. Of this popu¬ 
lation a total of 1,991,547, or 35 per 
cent, were white foreign born. The white 
population born in New l'ork City, but 
which had one or both parents of foreign 
birth, totaled 2,303,000. These two 
classes combined totaled 4.294,547 souls, 
or 76.4 per cent of the population of the 
city. 
The white inhabitants of New York 
City of voting age totaled 3,476.000. Of 
these 1,797,000, or 52,.5 per cent, were 
immigrants. 
New York City's foreign stock is not 
made up of immigrants from Northern 
Europe. New York City has a Jewish 
population of 1,600,000, being 28 per cent 
of the city’s population. These Hebrews 
immigrated recently from Eastern Eu¬ 
rope. The foreign born from Greece 
number 21,000; from Poland, 145,000; 
from Italy, 400.000; from Russia, 479,- 
000. The small percentage of foreign 
born of Nordic stock is shown by the fact 
that the foreign born from Holland num¬ 
bered only 4,750. and the English born 
numbered only 71.500. It thus appears 
that 35 per cent of the population is for¬ 
eign born, that 53.5 per cent of the popu¬ 
lation of voting age is foreign horn, and 
that the inhabitants of the city are chiefly 
of Eastern and Southern European ex¬ 
traction. A similar situation exists in 
many other Eastern cities. The census 
statistics show that SO per cent of the 
Russians and 85 per cent of the Italians 
in the United States live in the East, 
principally in the cities. 
The farm population of New York, 
New Jersey and the New England States 
is of Nordic stock. This farm popula¬ 
tion is composed of the descendants of 
the early Nordics who emigrated from 
the British Isles. Holland. Germany, 
France and Scandinavia during Colonial 
days, and the later Nordics who emigrat¬ 
ed from the same countries after the Rev¬ 
olution. In Eastern and Southern Euro¬ 
pean countries the farmer is a peasant 
and he is considered qualified only to pro¬ 
duce cheap food for the cities. In the 
Nordic countries, as in the United States, 
the farmer is correctly rated as the back¬ 
bone of the nation. 
The antagonism of the city to the coun¬ 
try is due largely to the age-old prejudice 
of the Eastern and Southern European 
stock in the Eastern cities against the 
Nordic American farmer. 
The prejudices of this class of emigrants 
are not changed by residence in the 
United States. A large proportion oi. 
these aliens have only a transient interest 
in the United States. Thus, in 1922,, for 
every 100 Poles admitted 39 returned to 
their native land ; for every 100 Italians 
admitted 53 returned; for every 100 
Greeks admitted 73 returned. The East¬ 
ern and Southern European emigrant dif¬ 
fers so greatly from the native Nordic 
American in language, customs, ideals 
and political principles, and their racial 
traits and prejudices are so deep rooted 
that it is impossible to assimilate and 
Americanize them on any considerable 
scale. These emigrants and their Amer¬ 
ican born children are forming colonies 
and nationalities of their own in the 
United States. The number and popula¬ 
tion of these colonies is increasing by 
leaps and bounds. Since 1908 over 970,- 
000 Jews have been admitted. The Ital¬ 
ian population has jumped from 250.000 
in 1890 to over 1.700.000 today. These 
emigrants do not practice race suicide. 
To stop the colonization of the North 
Atlantic coast States by the Eastern and 
Southern Europeans, patriotic Americans 
have introduced in Congress a bill to cur¬ 
tail this class of immigration. This meas¬ 
ure is known as the Johnson immigration 
hill. The bill would admit to the United 
States each year a quota not more than 2 
per cent of the foreign born of any coun¬ 
try in the United Srates in 1899. In 
1890 the Italian born population in the 
United States was 250,000. Italy’s year¬ 
ly quota of immigrants under the John¬ 
son bill would be 2 per cent of that fig¬ 
ure, or 5,000. If unrestricted, the Ital¬ 
ian immigration alone would be several 
hundred thousand a year. The Johnson 
bill makes similar restrictions on the im¬ 
migration from the other Eastern and 
Southern European nations. 
The Johnson hill would admit sufficient 
immigrants from the United Kingdom. 
Germany, France. Holland and Scandin¬ 
avia for all legitimate demands for farm 
and industrial labor. The bill would pre¬ 
vent future colonization of the Eastern 
States by Eastern and Southern European 
immigrants. With the non-Nordic immi¬ 
gration shut off. natural increase of the 
native American stock, together with im¬ 
migration from Nordic countries, would 
keep America the Nordic country that we 
inherited from our forefathers.

miles and in actual performance give up to 18,000 miles.

So why not save one-third and use Riverside Cords? 
What more will any other tire do? Then why pay more? 
And this 10,000 miles service is backed by a guarantee 
that has stood for fifty-one years. Doe3 any other tire 
carry a better guarantee? 
Quality is built into Riverside Cords 
This guaranteed mileage is built into 
Ward’s Riverside Cords. High treads, 
thicker and stronger, of tough, live rubber. 
This exceptional quality of Ward's 
tires alone has made us the largest re¬ 
tailers of tires in the country. The 
tires themselves have convinced thou¬ 
sands that Riverside Cords are best. 
You Don’t Risk One Cent 
Before you buy any tires send for River¬ 
sides. Inspect them. Compare them with tires selling for ,$5.00 
or $15.00 more. 
Send them back if you do not find them the equal of any 
first-quality oversize cord made. We will refund your money. 
These prices buy 10,000 miles of service—and more.
