SUPREME COURT CONSIDERS
IMMIGRATION OF HINDUS
iuodated Prtu Pupates]
Washington, Oct. 5.—Immigration
of Hindus to the United States is
question before the supreme court for
Its examination of a decree of the Cal
ifornia courts ordering deportation of
1913 of '35 Hindus from San Francisco.
Important questions involving Anglo-
American treaties, alleged race preju-
dice, authority of immigration offic-
ials and citizenship rights are raised
in the appeal. Also involved is the
question of whether immigrants allow-
ed to enter the Philippines by war de-
partment authority may lie re-examtn
ed and excluded from the United
States.
The Hindus are said to be working
In San Joaquin comity, California,
where they gave hall pending their
appeal. Exclusion of the Hindus was
ordered by the immigration bureau and
sustained by the allfornla district
court and ninth circuit court of ap-
peals. It was found they were suffer-
ing from hookworm and might liecome
public charges. The courts held also
that for immigration purposes the Phil-
ippines are not “a part of the United
States.”
A declaration by the immigration of-
ficials that the Hindus might not be
able to find employment becanse oi
race prejudice against them was es
peclally attacked in the appeal. The
Hindus counsel declared . that the
power to exclude immigrants because
of race preudlce was dangerous and
that exclusion of Hindus was a dis-
crimination in favor of other British
subjects.
