THE HINDUS NOT TO LAND
JUDGMENT OF THE COURT. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright VANCOUVER, July 6. (Received July 7, at 12.10 p.m.)
The Court of Appeal of British Columbia decided unanimously against the Hindus aboard the Komagata Mara being allowed to land.

The majority of them were, also unskilled laborers, and therefore temporarily barred under any circumstance?.
