Last week's fur story involved three of the most potent fur firms in the country: Eitingon Schild Fur Corp., whose $9,789,000 sales last year entitle it to the position of world's largest fur dealer; Balkan Importing Corp., New York office of the big Rumanian firm Pellimpex; and Alexander Bernstein Co., privately owned so that its figures are kept secret, but generally believed to be among New York's ten biggest.
