GOVERNOR
H HARD|NG
TO I RIAL
Iowa Executives Impeachment
Urged by Committee Which
Investigated Rathbun
Pardon Case.

Des Moines, April 1l.-Impeach-
ment of Governor w. L. Harding
will be recommended to the Iowa
house of representatives by its ju-
dietary committee, as the result Of
the investigation of the Ernest Rath-
bun pardon case, the committee de-
cided late tonight.
Seventeen members of the COM
mittee voted Eyes" and fourteen mo"
on this question: Does the evidence
in this case warrant the recon-
mendation of this committee that
articles of impeachment be prepared
and preferred against the governor?"
The committees action came after
heated secret sessions last night,
this afternoon and tonight, with
friends of the governor fighting to
the last to defeat the impeachment
recommendation.
1t was decided to defer action un-
til tomorrow at ! p. m. in the case
of H. M. Havner, state attorney gen.
era1, whose methods in gaining re-
vocation of the Rathbun pardon
were attacked before the committee.
Official Misconduct Charged.
A subcommittee was named to
draw up the report to the house
which probably will be submitted
Monday, if the committee completes
its discussion of the Havner case to-
morrow as planned.
1T was not made known just what
wording the charges against the
governor would take, but in a brief
to the committee, H. w. Byers of
Des Moines, special counsel, de-
clared the evidence showed the chief
executive guilty of "gross abuse of
power and official misconduct and
malfeasance in office"
Evidence In Case.
When the governor pardoned
Rathbun, the son of an Ida county
farmer, before he had served day
of his life sentence for criminal as
sault, the evidence showed, accord
ing to Byers, that the chief lexecu-
tive had not attempted to inform
himself fully regarding the case,
failed to try to revoke the pardon
when he learned fraud had been
practiced upon him.
Members of the committee would
not predict what action the house
might take on their recommenda-l
ton. If it sustains the committee
report, thereby impeacling the gov
ernor, the lower chamber would
elect seven of its members to prose-
cute the charges in the senate,
which would sit as court.

Foresee Reputation of Debts.
They assert that they can see the
possibility that the ways and means
of holding Germany to payment will
grow weaker as the years pass and
that Germany may take advantage
of some convenient opportunity in
later years to repudiate her obliga-
tions to the present allied powers
under the peace treaty.
They recall the action of Russia
in repudiating the restrictive Black
sea clauses of the treaty imposed at
the conclusion of the Crimean war
at a moment when a new political
constellation in Europe gave the
emperor of Russia a fair amount of
certainty that Russia could do this
with impunity.
For this reason the American and
other delegates on the reparations
commission have opposed new
proposal which the French brought
in to specify labor and other requisi-
tions, for the restoration Of the de-
French provinces in the
first few years after peace, main
tanning that this revived the prin-
ciple of priority as between the var
ious creditors of Germany, which
had been rejected by the commits
sion and the council of four.
France Meets Objections.
They argued that France in this
way might receive disproportionate-
ly a large share of her claims in
the first years, while the ability of
the associated governments to en-
force payment was still good and
that other states dependent upon
later payments in money and ma
terials might be left holding the
bag" if Germany proved recalcitrant.
The difficulty probably will be
met by the French offer to account
