DIES MONIES, Iowa, April 1.-James W. Kindig folmer assistant state at torney general testifying late today in the Iowa house judiciary committees investigation of the Rathbun pardon case, emphatically denied that the law had been violated in connection with the revocation of the pardon.
 Previous witnesses have testified that the Ida county grand jury which ill., veStigated the pardon, had voted in dictments against Rathbun's father and brother. and his attorney, George Clark but that these were not returned when Rathbun agreed to set aside the par don and go to prison for life for crim- inal assault.
 Kindig maintained the indictments were of no value until they were actu- ally returned in court and further de- clared he did not believe the evidence sufficient to convict persons named, and asserted it was common practice to grant immunity 10 some person in order to insure the conviction of an other
 When Representative Clark, of Linn county asked Kindig whether he be- 1 lieved d wrong had been done when young Rathbun was permitted to go to the penitentiaIy for life while his st- torney was allowed to so free, the wit ness replied

CONFIDENCE OF
 SECRETARY GLASS
(Continued from page one)

NConllnued from page Oic) war bills have been paid, shring quick ly back to say S2 900 COG, 900 a year in addition to the interest and sinking fund charges on the public debt. This debt is widely distributed among per haps 20000000 of our people and in- wolves merely payment by the tax payers to the taNpayers-for we are fortunate above all the great countries of the world in having practically no foreign debt.
 Why Bonds Are Sold
 The liquidation which has taken place in Liberty bonds since the armis tice, is traceable to other causes than the interest rate and terms of the bonds. Foremost of these causes is the fact that many patriotic Americans individuals and companies, subscribe for bonds in a spirit of patriotic fervor induced by the war, in excess of their ability to hold. The 'over-sold condi- tion of the market for Liberty bonds thus created was accentuated by the reaction following the armistice. which made many feel they were released from the duty of holding their bonds in aid of the governments credit: by the desire to realize losses before the end of the year and thus reduce taxes, by the changed financial position of many bond holders growing out of the termination of hostilities: and, worst of all. by the wicked devices of bond sharps and swindlers.
 T believe that all these adverse in fluences have spent their force. l am sanguine to believe that the market for Liberty bonds has seen it's worst and that the market position of the bond will improve as true understand ing of the immense strength of the if nancial position of the United States becomes disseminated and as the Vic tory loan proceeded
