Iowa Liquor Commission Fires Longtime Comptroller
The Des Moines based Iowa liquor control commission abolishes the comptroller post after 15 years of service by Elmer Drees of Des Moines. Chairman Arthur A. Coburn says the move aims at economy and notes the firing is not about Drees’s ability but about keeping a good politician on the payroll. Drees, a former Dyersville resident and Republican, says he had no warning of the ouster until the announcement.
