Abstract
The New Survey, like the first one, seeks to ascertain the ethnic derivation of a given population and is a study in method. It corroborates trends noted in 1921 and contains changes in method which reveal more effectively ethnic diversity and change. A technique is presented by which any population, however large, may be described in terms of origin, admixture, and generation in the United States. The Survey notes that all groups in the community are minorities, the mixed ethnic group which is constantly increasing ranks first, and the Italian element second, in numerical importance. "The Ethnic Survey may be an end in itself,.... it may be basic to researches in related fields."
