ITEM 4. Changes In Registrant's Certifying Accountant

On May 1, 2001, by recommendation from the Audit Committee and written consent
of the Board of Directors, KPMG LLP was dismissed as the Registrant's certifying
accountant. Also on this date, Ernst & Young LLP was engaged as the Registrant's
new certifying accountant.

During the two most recent fiscal years, there have been no disagreements with
KPMG LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure or any reportable events.

KPMG LLP's report on the financial statements for the past two years contained
no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

The Registrant has requested that KPMG LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to
the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it agrees with the above
statements. A copy of KPMG LLP's letter to the SEC, dated May 9, 2001, is filed
as Exhibit 16 to the Form 8-K/A.




                                   SIGNATURES

         Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereto duly authorized.

                                    REINHOLD INDUSTRIES, INC.
