Immigration. . . without a doubt a hot button topic… and not just in our lifetime. THE MEMPHIS MORNING NEWS, October 24, 1903 has a front-page article announcing that (nearly) 1,000,000 had immigrated to the U.S. in 1903. Tension? No question! Take a look at the requirements Congress had established for legal immigrants and more requirements being considered. A fascinating read in light of our current headlines.
