Daley Organization Case Dropped by Justice Dept
The Justice Department declined to force Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley's Cook County Democratic organization to file federal campaign finance reports. The case, tied to 1972 donations and nonpublic finances, was closed as a technical violation with no charges or compliance required. The probe followed pressure from Senator Roman Pucinski and involved several thousand dollars in small corporate donations.
