Excerpt from Beyond the Melting Pot: The Negroes, Puerto Ricans, Jews, Italians, and Irish of New York City History, or perhaps historians, keep passing New York by. During the Civil War New York [state] pro vided the greatest number of soldiers, the greatest quantity of supplies, and the largest amount of money. In addition, New York's citizens paid the most taxes, bought the greatest number of war - bonds, and gave the most to relief organiza tions. 1 Yet it is recalled as a war between Yankees and Southerners. The Union preserved, the American mind roams westward with the cowboys, returning, if at all, to the Main Streets of the Midwest. The only New York image that has permanently impressed itself on the national mind is that of Wall Street - a street on which mobod lives. Paris may be France, London may be England, but New York, we continue to reassure ourselves, is not America.
