Declining availability of unskilled workers   was not an effect of increased migration to cities during the early 20th century

Explanation:

Contrary to the statement given, the coming of the various waves of people from other countries into USA provided a great and cheap source of unskilled labor which they were wont to do as they were desperate for work.
