The percentage of births when one parent is returned as foreign born was 12.3 in 1908, while in 1.2 per the y of the pon.fll of race suicide, population of the county during the year are credited to foreign born fa— thers mothers. In Hartford coun- ty, which bristles with manufacturing communities, 54.9 per cent. of the par- ents were born under allen flags. Mid- dlesex in which 51.7 per cent. of the parents were foreign born, stood third, while in Fairfield ' county, in which the great ry town of Bndgeport and such hatting centers as Danbury, Bethel and the two Nor- walks are located, the percentage of foreign births ran up to 50.8 per cent. In Windham county, where plough and fiail are important instruments of live- lihood, the ratio .of foreign born par- ents dropped to the lowest point, the percentage being 34.4. Distribution by Races. Impressive is the supremacy which immigrant I have established in the birth statistics. Of the 14,130 Con- mnecticut born chiMren of foreign born parents in 1908, 4,421 were of Italian orfj During the decade between 1899 and 1908 the number of Italian births nearly quadrupled Russian born parents, the bulk of them being Jews. contriouted 364 units to the census of Connecticut during 1908, while the rec- ord for the year 1399 was only 926. ‘The dwindling part which Irllh im- migrants are playing in the birth sta- tistics of the commonwealth is notable, In 1899 the births with Irish parentage numbered 1,818 and exeesdsd those of any other foreign nationality, 1!0‘ the number had shrunk to 1,267 and Irish births were third on the list. For many years the immigrants from Ireland poured imto Conmnecticut in large numbers and exercised a great influence on the character of the pop— ulation of the state, but in the last ugtade thene Tins been a marked falling off. The Latin contribution to the birth tables of the state Quring 1908 was sTeater than the total l\lmbsr of births in the four counties of Windham, eld, Middlesex and Tollana com- bined. Slightly over 50 per cent. of the births of Italian born parents took place n New Haven county, while 2.202 {talien births during 1908 ire credited oo e mven county. Harntford a poor second with a total county i of 834, end Fairfield county next with cent. of the contributions to the infant | dipped co 0( the 2,364 chfld!- ‘born of Russian parents in Connecticut during 1908, nearly 1,000 uttered their first cries in New Haven county, and 697 of them are credited to Hartford county. Rus- sian immigrants turn up their noses at Windham county, and only 16 Russian births occurred in that northeastern county in 1908. Some Waning Figures. Germany joins Ireland in showing a waning emigration to Connecticut.. In 1899 the births from German parents amounted to 961 and was exceeded by no oversea races except the Irish and the Italians, but in 1908 the figure had to 611, most of those being con- fed 2o Hartford and Litchfield coun- ithe Om.mu.n which con- stitutes a large portion of the op- eratives In the toxtile industries in the eastern part of Connecticut, is dis- closing tendencies toward contraction. The number of birth certificates re- turneq by Camadian born parents sag- ged from 830 in 1899 to 611 in 1908. More than a third of the 611 are cred- ited to Windham county, where cotton mill villages are numerous. Naturally the infusion of fresh for- eign blood into Connecticut is most pronounced in the centers. In the case of only 21 per cent. of the births in the city of Amsonta during 1908 ‘were both parents American born; in Bridgeport only 25 per cent, in Der- by only 16 per cent., in Hartford only 34 per cent., in Manchester only 31 per cent., in Meriden only 27 per cent_ Middletown only 31 per cent, in New Britain only 22 per cent., in New Ha- ven only 25 per cent., in Norwich only 31 cent., in Stamford only 24 per cent. and in Waterbury only 27 per cent. Obviously in the fundamental ents of their population thiese cit- fes are becoming foreign communities, North Stonington Among the Declining Towns. In 26 towns the deaths exceeded the births in 1308, These are towns in which the native stock is still domi- nant and in which the infusion of alien blood is the smallest. In the rural town of Andover, for example, three birth certificates were filed during the year. All the births were of American parentag2 and all the decedents were American born. Of the 16 births which occurred in the farming town of North Stonington, in New Loadon county, all were from Yankee born fathers and mothers, while 22 of the 25 decedents were na- tive Americans. In North Branford, to cite one more {ilustration, eight of the 11 bables born during the year were of purely American parentage ana 17 of the 19 persons who died ‘were of native stock. The extent of the Injection of im-— ported blood and the shifting propor- tions of new racial elements are creat- ing marked changes in the population and citizenship of Connecticut. PLAINFIELD SCHOOL COMMITTEE H HAS BEEN ENJOINED Cannot Proceed with the Building of New Schoolhouse on Land of Law- ton Company—Building Was to Have Cost $10,000. ‘Temporary injunction papers have been served on members of the Plain- field town school committee forbidding them to take further action looking to the erection of a new school build- ing on the Lawton lot at Plainfield, until orders are received from the su- perior court which sits the first Tues- day of June mext in Windham county. It is claimed that the school com- mittee threatens and Is now about to fix and determine as a ‘site for a school house in the village of Plainfield a plece of land other than that fixed as the site and purchased and paid for by the town of Plainfleld. ‘The Jand which the school committee is about to fix and determine as such site is not the property of the town of Plainfleld school district, but is the land and property of the Lawton Mills company, and the committee threatens and is about to proceed to erect a -ehool house for the school district, expense, upon that land, not- wiuuundmg the land is not the land of the school district, but is the land of the Lawton Mills company and to pay for the erection and equipping of the building from the money and prop- erty of the town of Plainfield school aistrict. Henry Dorrance, Andrew J. Bitzood, Arthur C. Tillinghast and William P. Babcock secured the injunction. The building was to cost $10,000. SUIT FOR $5000 Monument Which - Is What Was: Ordered.
