Antialien Land Law Of California Upheld

RIVERSIDE, Cal., Thursday, April 5. -- The California antialien land law adopted in 1913, "does not conflict with the provisions of the treaty between the United States and Japan," according to a decision handed down here yesterday by Judge Hugh H. Craig of the superior court in the suit of the state to escheat the property here of Jukishi Harada, a Japanese.

The court rules the state had a right to "forbid ownership of land to aliens not eligible to citizenship," and that "Japanese had a right to lease but not to own real estate in California."
