Show FOREIGNERS IN UTAH More than one-third of the total population of Utah consists of foreign white stock, according to a recent release re-lease of the Department of commerce covering the 1930 population census. Of the 117,485 inhabitants of the State classified as foreign white stock, 43,772 are foreign born whites, while the others are natives of foreign or mixed parentage. One of the significant disclosures in the 1930 census is the decrease of 12,683 in the number of foreign born whites residing in the State, as compared com-pared with 1920. A reduction in the number' of Utah immigrants from England, Demark, and Sweden, accounted ac-counted for more than 50 per cent of this decrease. Germany, the Netherlands, Nether-lands, and Yugoslavia, on the other hand, had sent more immigrants to the State than in 1920. England with 59,177, Denmark, 24, 895, Sweden, 15,838, and Germany, 12,338 are the leading countries of origin of the total white stock residing resid-ing in the State. |
