The "Great American Problem" at the beginning of the 20th century was immigration. Robert Zeidel introduces the nine members of the Dillingham Commission, created by the immigrant act of 1907, as they meticulously gathered the facts for their 41-volume report. In general, the Dillingham Commission reached positive conclusions.
