Bulletin ; no. 1) Population movements and employment in `Changeville' `Hardly anything is being done to educate the native American [white] citizens of Changeville in an appreciation of the new-comers' background. "Most immigrants are Roman Catholics and Jews," s…aid an American resident. Then he added, "All Polish folk are Catholics," irrespective of the fact that a number of the Poles in Changeville are Jewish and Lutheran. On the other hand, all Russians were classified as Jewish, although many of them belong to the Greek Orthodox Church. Again, there was a general tendency among native Americans to classify all immigrants as foreigners whether they had become citizens or not. They were considered to be of one and the same class, in spite of the fact that some of them had much more in common with Americans than with other immigrants.' (p. 37) -- `In the face of this situation it is even more unlikely that any significant cooperation will develop among Protestants, Catholics, Jews, and Greek Orthodox. It would, therefore, appear that if Changeville is to become in the future a more integrated and united community, it will be because of the efforts of secular rather than of religious interests.' (p. 48) -- By way of identifying the community, a plant for making rubber shoes was founded in 1847 and closed about 1870, reopened and ran for another ten years or so until absorbed by U. S. Rubber (p. 18-19) Good, stapled, in sl. chipped and spotted wrapper. Cover-title.
