Thirty-four million immigrants bave entered the United States ia the past century. In the same time the population of the country has increased 97,000,000. The estimated increase for the ten years ended this year 1920) is 14,000,000, while the total number of immigrants during this period was 6,100,000. The per- centage ratio thus was only about 43 per cent, this being due to the falling off in immigration during the four years of the world war.

Immigration from the British Isles began to decrease in 1851, fluctuat ing between 32,000 and 160,000. In the twelve years preceding the world war the number of immigrants from those isles averaged about 80,000 annually.
The tide from Germany began to turn in 1887, and since that time the number of immigrants arriving has steadily decreased, reaching the low mark of 35,734 in the year before the world war.
