Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Tide of Immigration
Immigration has not only its Spring tide and its annual ebb but also its neap tides, its ?ood tides, its tidal waves, and its over?ows and inundations. It has its tide channels by means of which it gains entrance to this country. It has its tide gates, its tide-rip, its tide mills, its tide basin. There have developed tide tables and tide dials, and also tide gauges by means of which we are able to measure its volume at any particular time or over a period of years or decades; to learn of its racial, occu pational, age, and sex composition; to know its geographical distribution within the country, and to become familiar with its other characteristics. First, as to the volume of this inpouring of pe0p1es.
