Grand Jury Attacks Bloodsucking Money Sharks in Chicago
The September Cook County grand jury denounces chattel mortgage sharks and confidential credit lenders who ruin the poor. It cites a widow left homeless after a 830 debt and a shirt maker, and calls for stronger state supervision and regulation of such lending practices amid calls to apply Tom Hood’s Song of the Shirt to Chicago.
