Sir Dorab Tata, an Indian magnate and the owner of the famous jubilee diamond, valued at £500,000; says that the Bombay municipality has decided to boycott everything Australian, and the bankp and insurance companies connected with Australia, in consequence of the "White Australia" policy. A cablegram from Delhi about the middle of November stated that the , Bombay Corporation resolved, "in view of the humiliating and unjust treatment of Indians by the Dominion Governments and. Crown Colonies," that no non-Indian born in the Dominions or the colonies should be employed by the municipality., and no municipal funds should be invested in banks registered in such colonies. Funds already invested ' are to be withdrawn immediately ; and no insurance of municipal properties is to be placed with colonial companies.
