Answer: d.

Explanation: While economic hardship in Poland did push many to emigrate, Polish immigrants settled mainly in northern industrial cities (Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit, New York, etc.). Only a small number went to Texas (e.g., early Panna Maria settlement), so the claim that deteriorating conditions forced many specifically to immigrate to Texas is false.
