WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER -31. 1917. — — _ITALIAN A FAITHFUL TOILER Does Not Drop His Shovel as Other iLaborers Do When the Whistle Blows. There is & much lower percentage of criminnlity, immorality and insanity among the Itallans than among many other immigrant races, Willard Price writes in the World Outlook. As for dependency, statistics for a represent- ative year showed that out of every 28,000 Italians in the city of New York there was only one in the almshouse on Blackwell’s island. James Forbes, chief of the mendicant department of the C. O. S, says he has never seen or heard of an Italian tramp. ' There are “practically no drunkards among the Italians. The immigrant from Italy proves to be a faithful and cheerful worker. ‘When a contractor engaged in building a city sewer was asked why he had only Italians in his employ he replied: “Because they are the best workmen, and there are enough of them, If an Ttalian down in that ditch has a shov- elful of earth halfway up when the whistle blows for dinpner, he will not drop it; be will throw it up; others will drop it. And when the lunch hour is over, when the clock strikes the Italian will be leaning on his shovel ready to go to work, but the other fel- lows will be out under that tree and will be three minutes getting to the Job, and three minutes each for 150 men is not a small item.” The Italians are industridus, good- natured, very affectionate: toward chil- dren, courteous and polite often to the point of dishonesty, generous and self- sacrificing. But the impulse of these excellent qualities is offset by the Italian’s dense ignorance, whieh sens _tences him to spend the rest of his. life after he reaches America in the drudg- ery of unskilled Jabor. ~ T oo ekTona on &1 ast due accounts after Nov. 1.
