irm failed a few months ago. with liabili-
ies of more than $4,000, 900 which investors

y Here was n firm Of brokers with eiabo-
fately fitted offices in the financial district

not the business. The accountant who has
75ecn examining their books reports that
sheir gross income from January !. 1921.
% January 16, 1922. when they failed, was
,492 900. and that their net income was
about $4,000. Yet with only this net in
.ome the expenses Of the firm amounted to
lbout $500, 600.
n The lavish manner In which the firm was
spending money gave the customers the i'm
preston that profitable business was in
progress. when, If may accept the evi-
dence Of the accountant, the money that
was spent for expenses was not profits, but
The money left to be invested.
This sort of thing could not have gone
along If brokers usually We're nor in the

sheer business Incompetence. and perhaps
for other reasons, was able to continue in
business simply because their customers
