Struggling Enterprises.
Mr.. Walsh, says the brief, was en-
gagged in the promotion of large
number of struggling enterprises
which were in desperate need of
unds. Generally speaking, his mode
of procedure was that he woul |
learn of some enterprise was bank,
rupt and he would purchase it at a
very low price. He would then or
ganize a corporation, taking in pay.
ment the capital stock of the new
corporation and sufficient number
of bonds which at their face value
would more than reimburse him fcr
the price originally paid for the prop
erty.
'If the enterprise was successful
Mr.. Walsh made the profit and the
bank got its interest on the bonds. II
the enterprise should fail Mr.. Walsh
lost nothing and the bank lost the
amount of the investment.
when the banks closed Mr.. Walsh
had taken about s16,000,000 of their
funds for his personal speculation YET
his name appeared nowhere on the
books as debtor or borrower, and the
true state of affairs was not discover

was made by experts who were put
