Failures by Industrial Groups and Size of Liabilities in the United States from 1935 to Decennber 1938.

There is a definite corollary to be derived from these two charts. In the upper one industries labelled "retail trade" have the largest number of failures. In the lower one. those industries whose liabilities are under $25,000 have the largest number of failures. From these two facts, it may be deduced that the retail trade is in that category "under $25,000."
