Excerpt from American Jewish Year Book The statistical material is considerably amplified. A section is introduced on immigration to the United States and to Canada, in view of the large amount of attention this subject is receiving in public discussion. Acknowledgment is due to Miss Rose A. Herzog and Mr. Harry Schneiderman, upon whom devolved the labor of gath ering the details. Doctor Cyrus Adler contributed helpful suggestions while the volume was in press. As heretofore, the year book is under greatest obligation to Miss Henrietta Szold.
