Harrington Removed as Weather Bureau Chief in Boardroom Shakeup
Washington reports Professor Mark Harrington chief of the weather bureau has been removed by the president amid friction with Secretary Morton. Major Dunwoody is floated as possible successor, though army status complicates appointment. Harrington, from Ann Arbor, served since 1891 after weather services separated from the army signal corps. The White House and Agriculture Dept dispute who speaks for the action as crop bulletins note acting chief James Cook. Meanwhile Bryan draws crowds in Birmingham urging silver at 16 to 1.
