Fail defends Bluebonnet Savings deal amid S&L crisis
Arizona insurance executive James M. Fail says his acquisition of 15 failed thrifts, now Bluebonnet Savings Bank in Dallas, has saved taxpayers over 100 million dollars versus continuing insolvent operations. He testifies Monday to a Senate subcommittee while facing sharp criticism from Senator Metzenbaum over subsidies and funding. Sweaters from South Korea sold below fair value prompt Commerce action and a forthcoming ITC decision on duties, with Hong Kong already ruled dumped and Taiwan pending.
