Port Steal Bill Killed at Olympia
At Olympia Senate Hill 78 failed to reach a majority, leaving port rate control with the public service commission. Senator Howard Taylor backed the measure, but a late amendment by Nichols and Landon shifted support away, and the bill died 21 to 20. A rival bill to place port duties under five men also failed, while another proposal to shift duties to city and county officials remains pending.
