| The Making of Modern Immigration: An Introduction xxiv 6. See Edith Abbott, Immigration: Select Documents and Case Records (Chi- cago: University of Chicago Press, 1924) and Historical Aspects of the Immi- gration Problem (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1926). The sum of the pages came to nearly 1,700. The first source book related to the historical, legal, and social aspects of immigration, though it related to European immi- gration only and came without comment. The second volume discussed the causes of immigration, its economic aspects, problems of assimilation, pau- perism and crime, and other matters relative to immigration domestically. 7.

Cohalan advocated that Americans ought to steer clear of the political imbroglios being fomented in certain parts of Europe (notably Ireland). See, for instance, Cohalan, “The Menace of For- eign Entanglements: Let Us Awaken before It Is Too Late! Speech of Justice Daniel F. Cohalan at the Hotel Astor, New York, May 25th, 1923” (New York: Friends of Irish Freedom, 1923) and “Democracy or Imperialism, Which? Speech of Hon. Daniel F. Cohalan before the Brooklyn Local Council, Friends of Irish Freedom” (New York: Friends of Irish Freedom, 1925). 10.
