Board of Economic Enquiry Punjab. Monthly Survey of Economic Conditions in the Punjab. October 1945

GENERAL REVIEW As usual the month of October marked the opening of the University and colleges after the long summer vacation and also the return of the Punjab Government from the hills (Simla) to the plains (Lahore). [...] Among the conscious factors influencing the market mention may be made of the remarkable strength displayed by the bullion market resumption of upward trend of the notes in circulation and the repayment of the five per cent. [...] the consideration by the U. S. Senate of a bill to raise the price of the domestic mined silver to 129 cents per fine ounce and the appointment of the Tariff Board assuring the future of the War industries.
