Read the details from "The Workers of Ellis Island" and think about the central idea they support. Because he was only allowed to admit persons who were "clearly and beyond a doubt entitled to enter the United States," he had to be absolutely certain the person he was examining was not a member of one of the classes of persons barred from entering the country . . . . Ellis Island doctors were particularly watching for signs of contagious diseases. Incurable diseases included trachoma and tuberculosis and guaranteed a return trip to where the immigrant came from. Which supporting detail also supports the same central idea?

The detail that supports the central idea of the text is: All foreigners who arrived at the port of New York underwent an investigation before being able to enter the city.

Explanation:

The text above shows how the entry into New York City was controlled and judicious. This is because there was a group of people who were not welcome in the city and for security reasons these people were not allowed to enter, since New York received a large number of foreigners who were looking for better living conditions. Sick people, or showing signs of contagious disease were not allowed. For this reason, before allowing foreigners to enter, it was necessary for everyone to go through an investigation process that proved that they had no diseases, nor that they would cause disorder, so that they could enter the city.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
