CRIME 29 with native Canadians. After age and sex differences were eliminated, the number of con- victions per 100,000 British born was about equal to that for the Canadian born, but the number for the foreign born was nearly twice as great. (2) Reformatory Data—The proportion of immigrant males and females in reforma- tories in 1921 was about twice greater than that for the Canadian born. Those of the North Western European peoples (other than British and French) had 36 per 100,000 children between 10 and 20 years of age in reformatories, while the South, Eastern and Central European peoples showed 184. The Scandinavians had 32 per 100,000; the Germanic group, 38; the British 185; the Slavs 166; and the Latins and Greeks 340. (See Chart 12.) The influence of nativity is included in the above figures. They depict the situation as it actu- ally existed in 1921. The influence of nativity may be eliminated by examining separ- ately the rates for the immigrants and the Canadian born of the various origins. When the rates are thus freed from the influence of nativity, it appears that the Italian, Greek, Polish, Russian and Austrian children show many times larger percentages in institutions of cor- rection than do those of the Germanic and Scandinavian origins. The data also show that, for the average foreign community, there is marked improve- ment in the behaviour of the children of the second and subsequent generations in Canada.

The crude penitentiary rates per 100,000 population of corresponding nativity groups, 15 years and over, were for the Canadian born 19, for the British born 27, and for the foreign born 75 per 100,000. Differences in sex distribution were elim- nated by examining the data for the males and females separately. The rate for the Cana- dian born males was found to be 38, for the British born males 49, and for the foreign born
