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 U. S. in Fight for Cold Storage Books. CHICAGO, Dec. 9 A legal tight was started to-day by attorneys for the Government in an effort to get possession of the book* of cold stor age companies.
