Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Italians in Chicago: A Social and Economic Study
As we have seen by the table on page 15, the Italians covered by the present report show for those born in this country per cent of single persons and for those born abroad per cent single. A similar disproportion was found to exist in the figures shown in the Seventh Special Report, and was there accounted for by the fact that foreign-born persons coming to this country are usually married or of marriageable age, while the native born include a great number of children who have necessarily been classed as single. Reference to the table on page 15 shows this very clearly.
