Would not industrial progress itself respond to such a social policy toward invention? Closely related to machine production is another element which affects the foothold of American workmen in the corporate industries, viz. , the vast influx of immigrant wage- earners. More important than the fact that upon their arrival a third of these immigrants are illiterate, is the fact that before coming to this country nearly a fifth have never worked for wages. The immigration restrictionists are righ...t in saying that the mass and insecurity of the immigrants act as a powerful undertow on the lower bargaining levels of all industries. The Federal Immigration Commission indicated that the average pay of day labor the country over is less than the sum required for family subsistence, and that the influx of newcomers tends to keep it there for immigrant and native workman alike.
