Bring Big Profits

Moving in for fast share of the
profits are the finance companies
which were created during the used
car boom, saw their profits dwindle
when auto finance charges were reg
ulated and are now free to make it
back in the unregulated wig business.
Wigs have been sold in Washing
ton for years by long-established
firms. When wigs became fashion,
able, beauty salons as we'll as the
old-line firms responded to the de-
mand with expensive, usually hand
made wigs.
Then came the boom and the
rapid production of less expensive,
machine-made wigs. That's when
the wig shops blossomed.
Unlike the beauty salons, the wig
shops and their operators are not
supervised by the Board Of CoSme-
tology. Unlike the car firms, the
wig dealers and their statesmen are
not licensed, nor are their finance
charges regulated.
Profits for the newcomers to the
world of beauty are said to be enor-
nous. Mark-ups range as high as 800
per cent of the cost to them. One
executive in the wig business said
they can make as much out of selling
three wigs as they used to get out
of one used car.
With this pot Of gold in the offing,

Three Probes Under Way as Former
Used Car Dealers Change Line

Star Staff Writer

USed-car dealers and statesmen
whose practices brought a cleanup
law to Washington have now plunged
into the mushrooming wig business
here.
The ex-uSed-car men have been
joined in the wig business by former
stock brokers and statesmen. Included
among them are three one-time Of
ficers of the now defunct American
Diversified Securities, Inc, which
caught 800 victims in its collapse,
The activities of these and other
wig entrepreneurs have contributed
to making the Nations Capital what
is now regarded in the trade as the
hottest wig city" in the United
States.
The vast promotion to make Wash
ington women wig-conScious has now
triggered three Investigations.
The Federal Trade Commission
and the Better Business Bureau of
Metropolitan Washington are scan
ming the advertisements for possible
Misrepresentation.
The District Department Of Ii
cenSes and Inspections is collecting
complaints to determine whether the
wholly unregulated wig business
should be licensed.
More wigs are now being sold here
per capita, according to best avail
able estimates, than in any other
American city.

Used Car Veterans

Some veterans of used-car opera

Monroe Lenoff, former president
of Bob Wilson, Inc, which was
among five used-car firms cited by
the Federal Trade Commission for
false, misleading and deceptive"
used-car advertising. The used-car
firm went out of business after the
Districts Board of Appeals upheld
the refusal of the Districts license
superintendent to renew its license.
With several former American
Diversified Securities officials, Mr..
Lenoff opened Custom Wig StylistS
at 7O4 Thirteenth street NV. Last
month, he emerged as an officer Of
another new one-Fashion Wig
Stylists at 1913 Connecticut avenue

Gabriel BORROW, the Gabby of

the five used-car firms cited by the

two men who had launched Wig
World, now at 1917 Connecticut av-

corporated last April, he was listed
as one of the three directors.
Jack Berman, longtime used-car
manager and salesman. He is now
listed as president of Fashion Wig
Stylists, with Mr.. Lenoff as secre-
tary. The vice president is listed as
Norman Gordon, another former car

ToHuIt Plan
Is Predicted
BY the Associated Press

Supporters are counting on
a possible new statement of
Cuban policy by President Ken
nedy to help kill a reservation
proposed by Senator Goldwater,
Republican of Arizona, to the
limited nuclear test-ban treaty.
With the Senate opening
formal debate on the pact
tomorrow, administration STRAIT
egistS conceded that If Senator
Goldwater goes through with
his plan to offer a reservation
he might attract as many as
80 votes. They hope to cut into
this total Of nearly q third Of
the Senate.
Even if they can't, they said
they remain confident no more
than 20 members finally will
oppose ratification, which
would require the affirmative
votes Of 81 If all 100 Senators
participated.
AS one Of a bipartisan group
lined up against the treaty,
Senator Goldwater proposed
that the effectiveness of the
ban against all but under
ground nuclear testing be post
poned until Russia removes all
its military forces from Cuba.
Has No Illusions
Senator Goldwater, a leading
contender for the 1854 Re-
publican presidential nomina-
ton, said he has no illusions
that the Senate will accept his
reservation.
I'm not going to vote for
the treaty" he said. "They will
not take my reservation on
Cuba and I don't see how the
treaty could be revised so that
I could support it. / am wor-
ried about its military effect"
Cites Effect Of Move
Meanwhile, Senate Repub-
lican Leader Dirksen said last
night that former President
Eisenhower did not intend to
imply he wanted q formal
revision to the limited nuclear
test-ban treaty.
The Illinois Senator, In an
interview. said "the word res
ervation' is not quite what
