RIGHTS OF INDIANS.
RESTRICTIONS OF DOMINIONS. BITTERLY RESENTED. By Telegraph.—Press Assn—Copyright. Received May 19, 8.50 p.m. London, May 18. Interviewed, Mr. Sastri (the Indian representative at the Imperial Conference), said he was not particularly optimistic over the Imperial Conference discussions, which hitherto had not led to much improvement in Indians’ status in the Empire. “Until we are placed on an equal footing with the Dominions we cannot seriously discuss the problems of defence and preferential trade,” he added. Mr. Sastri spoke bitterly of the prohibition against Indians entering Australia, Canada and South Africa. Under such a state of affairs India was definitely opposed to Imperial preference. —Aus.-N.Z.
