EQUALIZERS NOT NAMED.

miaaioner* of Musvogee < ’ounty at

* m. »
L. J. Daley, special Investigator for
the Department of Juntlce, haa com
pleted hip preliminary investigation
of the "egg situation" in Atlanta and
has forwarded his report to Attorney
General MrReynoldx. The investiga
tion ha-a so far covered the situation
only in Atlanta, but it is probable
that Mr. Daley will be ordered to
TennesHe**, which is In his district,
for an investigation of cold storage
houses and egg dealers of that State.
While Mr. Baley refused to make
Public tf»e contents of his report, it
is generally understood that it will
not be followed by any prosecutions
in Atlanta, unless it is extended later
to the charges that local dealers sell
cold storage eggs under the guise of
fresh eggs.
"I found no corner in eggs in At
lanta." Mr. Haley said Tuesday
morning, "and did not expect to when
I stalled the investigation. There
are not enough cold storage eggs
in Atlanta to make a corner possible.
All the cold storage eggs here could
be cornered and the consumer would
never be aware of it, because enough
eggs can be obtained from the sur
rounding country to supply the de
mand.”
It is understood that Mr. Daley’s
investigation dealt mainly with the
possibility that there is some connec
tion between Atlanta dealers and the
dealers who manipulate the alleged

Cold Storage Books.
