DAYTON IS CLEARED
BY INVESTIGATORS
Impeachment Proceedings
Dropped by House Ju-
dietary Committee.

WASHINGTON, March 3-lmpeach-
ment proceedings against Aston O..
Dayton federal Judge in the northern
district Of West Virginia, were dropped
by the house judiciary committee to-
1 day by a vote of II to A.
A majority report drafted by the
sub committee which Investigated
charges against Judge Dayton held
| that while his conduct in some in
stances had been 'reprehenslOle,' '
there was little possibility Of main
taining them to conclusion Of his
guilt"
The minority report drawn by
Chairman McGillicuddy and recon-
mending impeachment was rejected
The house authorized the investiga-
ton early In February and a sub-cOm-
mittee went 10 West Virginia TO con-
duct the inquiry, which was concluded
in Washington.
The house directed that the sub
committee inquire among other things
whether Judge Dayton cOnspired with
certain corporations and individuals
TO obtain the removal OF Judge Jack
son, his predecessor; whether he had
showed marked favoritism to certain
corporations having extensive litiga-
tlon in his court; whether he had lent
his services as Judge TO coal operators
by improperly issuing injunctions
whether he had shown hatred and
bitterness towards miners on trial in
his court and whether he had openly
stated he would not permit the United
Mine Workers Of America TO exist
within the jurisdiction of his court.
The findings and specific charges
declared the judge had not conspired
to remove Jackson and had not shown
faVoritism TO corporations.
