Rinehart Fired Over Pork Barrel Trade In Washington
In Olympia on January 18 authorities charge C W Rinehart was discharged from the weights and measures department by Secretary J M Howell under pressure from Representative Jimmy Davie of Tacoma. Davie allegedly threatened to cut state appropriations to force the firing to protect the pork barrel. Rinehart reportedly angered Davie by dismissing the brother in law of a Tacoma scion who was a deputy in the department. Simmons of the Merchants' association and Governor Lister were said to be informed, with Simmons raising the issue to the governor. Rinehart had previously run the city of Beattle’s weight program and led the state’s weights and measures bureau after its creation.
