Charles, regarding 'stort O', I suggest we are at a disadvantage here, offering translations a sentence or two at a time. This can work only so long; then we have to sit back and appraise the overall context of the paragraph(s). We have not yet had that context presented to us. Is Roos asserting, in the surrounding paragraphs that something happens in America to immigrants that has them turning honest ,big time, or becoming dishonest, big time? Is he elsewhere praising an America that imparts honesty values or is he warning Swedes back across the Atlantic to expect quite the opposite?
In passing, thank you for the work you are doing. Translating is tough dogged work!
