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 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 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.  In
     connection with the audit for the most recent two fiscal years
     preceding the dismissal of KPMG Peat Marwick there have been
     no disagreements with KPMG Peat Marwick 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 period.

     The Registrant has requested that KPMG Peat Marwick furnish it
     with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees
     with the above statements.  A copy of the KPMG Peat Marwick
     letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission dated
     December 12, 1996 is filed as Exhibit 16 on this Form 8-K.

(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.

Gentlemen:

We were previously principal accountants for L. Luria & Son, Inc.
(the "Company") and, under the date of March 24, 1995, we reported
on the consolidated financial statements of L. Luria & Son, Inc. as
of and for the year ended January 28, 1995.  On December 11, 1995,
we were dismissed as the Company's independent public accountants. 
We have read the Company's statements included under Item 4 of its
Form 8-K dated December 12, 1995, and we agree with such statements
except that we have no basis for agreeing or disagreeing with the
Company's statement in paragraph (a) regarding approval by the
Board of Directors to change accountants.

Very truly yours,

KPMG Peat Marwick LLP
