The piece compares business failures since May 1920 to funeral processions, noting about 2,000,000 active firms and a two year failure rate of about one in 53. It cites May 1960 failures, January 2723, and May 954 new incorporations with capital of 100000 each. Total debts around 600 million annually, net loss near 300 million, implying 3 dollars per American yearly.
