(Spectal to The Bulletin.) Washington, D. C, May 15—The National Geograhic Soclety, from its Washington headquarters, issued to- day a etriking bulletin on the number of German-born people in the United States. The bulletin also includes oth- er striking statistics of vital interest in_the present situation. “During the last quarter of a cen- tury there has been a startling falling- off in the percentage of Germans in the total number of immigrants who have come to our shores” says the bulletin. “With more than 17,000,000 immigrant arrivals since 1880 only 1,- 023,000 have been Germans, whereas in the 114 years between the estab- lishment of the American repubiic and 1830 out of a total of 15,689,000 immi- grants there were 5,125,000 Germans —every third arrival a Teuton. “If from the 1,023,000 who have come to America since 1890, the period of greatest influx of foreigners, a proper deduction is made for those who re- turned to their homeland and those who have dled since their arrival it will be seen that there are fewer than a milion former subjects of the Kalser in this country who have not been here more than 26 years. Of more than 8,000,000 people of German birth and immediate ancestry among us less than 1,000,000 fail to have the background of birth or long residence in_America behind them. “An examination of the statistics of American immigration shows that Since the foundation of our govern- ment the United Kingdom of Great Britain and freland has contributed 8,400,000 of her people and Germany more than 6,000,000. Ireland with more than 4,000,000; Great Britain, with a little less than 4,000,000 and Scandi- navia, with something less than 2,- 000,000, have together with Germany contributed more than half of the total immigration to our shores since the beginning of the Revolutionary war. “Auetria-Hungary stands next on the list of contributors to the immi- grant stream that has flowed from Europe to America. Although Austro- Hungarians began to immigrate in considerable numbers only when the arrivals from western Europe had be- gun to fall off, sufficient have come from the dual monarchy to populate the State of Texas to its present den- sity. Italy has sent us enough of her people to duplicate Montana, Wyom- ing, Idaho, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. “The Russians who have come to our shores number, 3,419,000. They could replace one-haif of the popula- tion of New England. “Although the people of foreign birth constitute only one-seventh of the country’s population, they contri- of the arm-bearing strepgth of the pation. At the last census many of the States had a greater number of foreign-born men of arm-bearing age, than they had of native-ancestry cit- izens, among them Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Minnesota. and North Dakota. Taking the states where those of foregn birth and their sons together constitute a major por- tion of the men between the ages of 18 and 44, it will be found that the list includes the above named states and the following: New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Michigan, South Dakota, Nebraska, Montana, Idaho, Arizona. Utah, Nevada, Washington and Call- fornia—in ali 20 states. e have considerably more than 20,000,000 men of military age in the United States. “Another striking fact of our immi- gration situation is the unusual pre- ference of the forelgn born and thelr children for the cities. Of the 35,- 000,000 foreign-stock whites living in the United States, approximately 23,- 000,000 live in the cities. In only 14 of the 50 leading cities of the country do the whites of full native parentage constitute as much as half of the total population. Only one-fifth of the total population of New York and Chicago is of native white ancestry. Less MEN!
