Diagram 6.—Ratio of (1) Native Whites of Native Parentage,(2) Native Whites of Foreign or Mixed Parentage, (3)Foreign-born Whites, and (4) Negroes Admitted to Hos-pitals for the Insane per 100,000 Population of the sameColor, Race, Nativity, and The ratio for the native white of native parentage isuniformly lower than that for either of the other twoclasses of whites in every age group except the young-est (under 15 years), and very much lower in every agegroup except the two youngest. There is in general,however, no wide difference between the native white offoreign or mixed parentage and the foreign-born white,the ratios for these two classes in most of the age groupsbeing either nearly identical or not very far apart; onlyin the two youngest age groups is there any such con-trast as appears in the ratios for the total for all agescombined. In some groups the ratio for the nativewhite of foreign or mixed parentage is slightly higherthan that for the foreign-born white, but usuallythe latter is the higher of the two. It is evident, then,that the difference between these two classes as regardsthe relative number of admissions to hospitals for theinsane is mainly accounted for
