Commercial embarrassment defalcation eyed as new disease
The Washington Globe finds Denby Polk’s Naval Agent at Lyons caused a $155,000 loss not by robbery but by commercial embarrassment. The piece mocks Sub Treasury vaults’ relevance and suggests a single strong box to lock public funds and another for the Sub-Treasurer as a remedy. It echoes O. S. Journal commentary on a novel financial flaw.
