Testimony OF the usurious operations
OF the salary loan companies OF New
York City A firm Of lawyers retain
led by one of the daily newspapers u
assist victims OF the loan sharks
who applied for help have reported
on their work, which lasted nearly
three montas During that time the
lawyers settled 300 cases for people
who had been in the clutches OF loan
companies for from six months 70
five years. The total principal bor-
rowed by these 800 persons was SIS
290.60 and the inaerest which tney
had agreed to pay for this money for
three months was S3,7f471, or $50
per cent. The attorneys say that III
almost every case they were able TO
settle Immediately with the loan
company, by offering 10 pay back the
amount loaned with interes
at 6 per cent year.
THE report states thai in nearly
all Of the cases handled the original
loans had been obtained for burial
expenses or doctors fees. This dis
agrees with the popular view that the
borrower on salary is usually a
protligate or spendthrift Others
who have studied this matter believe
that worthy borrowers constitute
about half Of those who apply to sal
