ITEM 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
(a) On December 11, 1995, L. Luria & Son, Inc. (the "Registrant")
dismissed the accounting firm of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as
independent accountants for the Registrant for the current
fiscal year ending February 3, 1996. The accountant's reports
on the financial statements for the past two fiscal years
preceding the dismissal of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP did not
contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, audit
scope or accounting principles. The decision to change
accountants was recommended and approved by the Board of
Directors. During the most recent two fiscal years and the
subsequent interim periods preceding the dismissal of KPMG
Peat Marwick LLP there have been no disagreements with KPMG
Peat Marwick LLP on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or accounting scope
or procedure. In addition, no reportable events, as defined
in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the Securities and
Exchange Act, occurred during such periods.
The Registrant has requested that KPMG Peat Marwick LLP
furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether
it agrees with the above statements. A copy of the KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission
dated December 19, 1995 is filed as Exhibit 16 on this Form 8-
K/A.
(b) On December 11, 1995 the Registrant engaged the accounting
firm of Deloitte & Touche as independent accountants for the
Registrant for the current fiscal year ending February 3,
1996. This engagement was approved by the Board of Directors.
