Harding's defense when he appears
before the house judiciary committee
tomorrow was an Interesting develop
ment in the Rathbun investigation to-
day.
This letter, written by Rathbun in

made to Rathbun by Attorney General
Havners agents in the Martin Hotel
at Sioux City to induce him to sign the
confession which he made at the trial

London, March 25.-Morning, news
papers unanimously charge the Paris
peace conference with responsibility
for Hungary embracing tolshevism and
the general dissatisfaction over the de-
lay of peace, but the manner in which
it has incurred responsibility is var
iously explained.
While treating the Hungarian cpl
sode more lightly than others, because
it does not believe the whole country
shevik, the Post accuses the confer
ence of delaying peace while its ideal
lists are following the will-o'- the wisp
called the league of nations"
The newspapers panacea is to treat
the diplomatic situation as it was
treated militarily when everything was
entrusted to Marshal Focjl, and it sug-
gests that supreme direction be given
Premier Clemenceau, SO that prob
able failure arising from divided coun-
ellis may be avoided"
Dangerous MiscaIculations.
The Telegraph ascribed the gravity
of the situation to a dangerous mis-
calculation which assumed a much
longer war and left the allies unpre-
pared as to q policy Of peace 1t
trusts the lesson of urgency and sus-
pense which is being taught daily will
not be lost on "those elements which
are consuming time with efforts to Sc
cure in the peace treaty results to
which facts oppose an insurmountable
barrier"
The Chronicle thinks Hungary has
given healthy shock to public opinion.
and. that il the council OF ten responds
st may prove blessing in disguise.
The newspaper maintains the tfemedy
now is prompt and combined military
action against the Magyar govern
ment.
Russian Policy Blamed. Z.
Conferences delays and a refusal to
face the Russian probleus are direct
ly responsible tor the present disquiet-
ing situation" says the Mail while
the conference talks, the bolsheviki
act. The fruits Of immense sacrifices
on the battlefields are being imperiled
because the conference can not attend
to business for the dispatch of which 1t
exists
The Daily News deduces that the
league of nations has been an obstacle
to the conclusion Of peace. The news
paper also condemns the refusal OF
the peace conference to recognize and
make terms with the Russian bolshevik
government.
