LONiDON. Dec. 2 -—(CP Cable)- Thc privy council today upheld the Canadian Government's right to deport undesirable Japanese. in- eluding naturalized British subjects of the Japanese race.

In a judgment handed down by Lord Wright, the privy council dis- missed an appeal against deportat-

- ion lrlade by the Co-operatlve Conl- mittec on Japanese Camdialu and

supported by the C.C.F. Govern- ment of Saskatchewan. The appellant contested the

legality of orders-in-councll passed under the War Measures Act Dec. i5, 1945, providing for the depor- tationa. Dominion Government represent- latives. supported by the ment of British Columbia. argued that 10.000 of the 24000 Japanese 1n Canada had signified their desire to go back to Japan. These. the dominion government claimed. ﬂIOilg with about 500 "ll-IYIESITZIJIG"
