HINDUS IN CANADA
SIR RICHARD McBRIDE'S VIEWS. (Press Association. —Copyright.) OTTAWA, May 27. The Premier of British C-olumbia, Sir Richard Mcßride, commenting on the arrival of the Hindus, pointed out the .singular coincidence of Hindus attempting to enter Canada when the Imperial Government was engaged in the solution of a vexed domestic problem. 'Sir Richard said it was impossible to agree for a moment to the Hindus' claim •that as British subjects they were entitled to enter British Dominions. Canada excluded even Englishmen if they were undesirable. Canada freely admitted India's right to exclude Canadians. and. asked in turn that India should admit that Canada had a similar right.
