One of their worst influences is to retard the assimilation of their people by the great American body politic, by refusing themselves to be assimilated, even go- ing so far as to send their children to private schools in ord...er that they may not learn English, and insisting on wearing clothes of imported pat- tern and make. They are by birth, tradition and intent the leaders of Italian communities in this country, and their prejudices and examples confuse, if they do not entirely divert the natural social de- 62 THE ITALIANS velopment of their humbler countrymen all about them. " Those who cannot read or write are more easily moulded by American standards and are less apt to be affected by the newspapers — printed in Italian and reflecting anything but the true American spirit — which flourish in the Italian quarters of all our large cities.
