Sir Victor Sassoon has been appointed Chairman of the Indian Currency League which has for its object the stabilization of the Rupee exchange at the pre-war figure of 1 shilling and four pence, instead of 1/6 which has been recommended by the Royal Commission.
Sir Victor presided at a mass meeting of Bombay citizens convened under the auspices of the League, at which resolutions were passed protesting against the proposed establishment of the ratio of 1/6, which would be to the detriment of the Indian agriculturist.
Sir Victor Sassoon has been nominated by the Bombay Mill-Owners’ Association to represent them in the Legislative Assembly.
