By the Amsociated Press. BOSTON, June 2—Impeachment of | Attorney General Arthur K. Reading “for misconduct and maladministra- tion” was recommended unanimously by & spectal legislative committee, which made 1ts report yesterday after an in- vestigation into the attorney general’s conduct in office. 1n its report the committee denounced IAttorney General Reading's acts in vig- orous language and after finding that he had “wiltully, wmnfly and corruptly prostituted his official power and in- fluence for the purpose of securing benefits to himself,” urged the House of Representatives to adopt resolutions for his impeachment by the Benate. The greater part of the report dealt with the attorney general’s connection with the Decimo Club, Inc., of New York, whose payment-to him of & $25,000 retainer led to the appointment of the investigating committee. This body of nine members of the House also found Reading guilty of mis- conduct in bringing about a settlement between the United L. A. W. Corpora- tion of Worcester and its subsidiary organizations, The committee found no culpsbility within the scope of its inquiry relating Reading's participa- tion in various Florida land enter- prises, but reported that “there was | reprehensible negligence in the custody of important papers entrusted to his charge or to that of his assistants,” as a result of the disuppearance of papers in_connection with sales of tubercular cattle to the Btate, The committee sald that the attor- ney general intended to conceal the fact | of his employment by the Decimo Club {#nd that in the receipt of the $25,000 | check and other sums of money “did | mislead and decelve both his own offi- clal msseciates and the people of the commonwealth of Massachusetts with respect 1o his employment by the Decimo Club, Ohio State Cosch Resigns.

Additional documentary evidence on committee on public utilitles informa- tion awaited formal indentification and introduction today as the Pederal Trade Commission sought to dispose of the Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico phases of its investigation into the publicity methods of power utilities. For the third successive day the com- mission turned to George E. Lewis, executive manager of the committee, for information and questioning. One of the scores of letters included in the documentary evidence was ad- dressed by Lewis to M. H. Aylesworth of the National Electric Light Association, New York, and related to utilities pamphlets prepared by the committee, which Lewis had said were widely dis- tributed through schools in his territory. “Frankly these booklets do not meet our desires from a literary standpoint,” wrote Lewis, “or for the exposition of the utility industry. Rather they con- stitute a ‘bread pill’ being designed for the perusal of educators who are somewhat chary of our intentions in going before students. Necessarily, our initial efforts had to provide something that would demonstrate that we are not trying to peddle a lot of pure propaganda.” Gives School List. A March, 1926, report by Lewis to W. 8. Vivian of the National Elec- tric Light Association, covering ‘“our public speaking activities in this region,” sald these had principally been con- ducted in the universities, colleges and high schools. “These talks have been made in con- nection with the course of lectures fostered by this committee,” Lewis re- ported. “During 1925 our speakers ap- peared in the following universities and culleges: University of Colorado, Boul- der; Colorado State Agricultural Col- lege, Fort Collins; State Teachers’ College, Greely; Colorado School of Mines, Golden; Colorado College, Colo- rado Bprings; University of Denver and the School of Commerce, Denver. Dur- ing 1925 our speakers delivered 45 talks in these institutions. The total at- tendance was 1480. During the same period our speakers appeared in 10 Denver high schools, They gave 20 lectures for 22,000 students. During 1925 various utility men gave 50 talks before various civic and service organ- izations and similar bodles. Results of a 1923 survey of Iowa text books were included in a letter to Lewls from Joe Carmichael, director of the Towa committee on publie information, which was offered in evidence. Car- michael wrote: “We have watched the situation here carefully, but have never made a report to our member companies or any one clse on it. We found, when we made this survey, that high schools in about 16 Towa citles and towns were particu- larly obnoxious. We have kept these towns in mind constantly since then, and find that after the attention of i propef® officlals was ealled to the in- | justice of attacks made by the authors, # number of schools eliminated them. Such text books are now used in only fabout 7 or 8 schools, most of them in |towns which have municipal lighting | plants.” Boulder Dam Study.
