Senate removes Claiborne from office
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Senate yesterday convicted U.S. District Judge Harry E. Claiborne of "high crimes and misdemeanors," making him the fifth federal official in history to be removed from office through impeachment.
The chief U.S. district judge for Nevada was found guilty on three of four impeachment articles by a two-thirds majority. He was acquitted on a fourth article, although a majority of senators voted "guilty."
The votes were: Article I, 87-10; Article II,
90-7; Article III 46-17; and Article IV, 89-8.
Claiborne, 69, was found guilty on Articles I and II, accusing him of the same willful tax violations that caused a federal court jury to find him guilty in 1984.
Article III, of which he was acquitted, said the judge's criminal conviction alone warranted his removal. Article IV contended the conduct betrayey the judiciary and the nation.
Sen. Alan Dixon, D-III, said many senators voted on the third article because they thought a "guilty" vote would establish the precedent that a criminal conviction "was equivalent to being guilty on impeachment."
A conviction on any article would have been sufficient to oust Claiborne from his job.
Each senator stood in on the historic proceeding to cast his vote of "guilty" or "not guilty." Claiborne sat at a table in the Senate well.
Most senators were somber as they responded to President Pro Tempore Strom Thurmond's question, "How say you? Is the respondent Harry E. Claiborne guilty or not guilty?"
Former Sen. Howard Cannon, D-Nev., a member of the judge's defense team, said after the vote, "I feel the Senate did not give Judge Claiborne the trial he was entitled to. It did not
hear one solitary witness before the full Senate."
Cannon referred to the Senate's decision to have a 12-member impeachment committee hear all evidence. The defense went to three courts in an attempt to postpone the vote until witnesses could be summoned, but the effort ended when Chief Justice William H. Rehquist and Justice Thurgood Marshall denied the motion without comment.
Cannon said the Senate's judgment was based largely on "hearsay" and unfavorable newspaper articles, but "it was not really based on the facts."
Oscar Goodman, Clairborne's attorney, said the Constitution was "brushed if not broken" by the conviction and vowed to continue the legal fight. Ms. Goodman said she will quit, and my client doesn't know how to quit.
A Senate aide, speaking only on condition
that he not be identified, said the Senate leadership did not introduce a resolution to bar Claiborne from holding federal office in the future because. "Their feeling was 'enough is enough.'" Such a resolution, introduced at past impeachment trials, would have required only a majority vote.
Three district judges and an appellate judge have been the only officials in the past to face the ignominy of a Senate conviction. Of all 13 officials who faced impeachment proceedings, only Claiborne entered the Senate chamber as a convicted felon.
Claiborne said federal agents and prosecutors he had criticized as "a bunch of crooks" were responsible for his court conviction.
He acknowledged that more than $106,000 in income was not reported on his 1979 and 1980 tax returns.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland — President Reagan, promising frank talk and no guarantees of success, arrived yesterday to pursue a thaw in superpower relations and reductions in nuclear arms at a weekend summit with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev.
United Press International
President in Iceland for talks
Cautioning against raised expectations, Reagan flew to Iceland in a bid to bridge differences through personal, one-on-one diplomacy.
As he flew from Washington, administration officials emphasized Reagan's desire to use the meeting with Gorbachev to set a full-scale summit by the end of the year and to break a 19-month deadlock in arms control.
One official said the meeting could produce "a handshake on an agreement to agree" on the broad outlines of a plan to reduce medium-range nuclear missiles, with details left to negotiators in Geneva.
White House spokesman Larry Speakes described Reagan as well prepared and confident of his position for his six hours of weekend talks with Gorbachev.
The pre-summit summit, described by Reagan as essentially a private meeting between the two, was hastily arranged during the last nine days after accepting a Sept. 19 invitation from Gorbachev.
"We go to Reykjavik for peace." Reagan said as he left the White House. "Today, we are making history," he said. "We are turning the tide of history to peace and freedom and hope."
Reagan said he and Gorbachev would not have large staffs with them and did not expect to sign substantive agreements. Rather, he said, the objective would be to review the full scope of U.S.-Soviet relations and face the tough issues directly and honestly with an eye on redoubled efforts afterwards to set a date for a full-scale summit later this year.
"We cannot pretend that differences aren't there, seek to dash off a few quick agreements and then give speeches about the spirit of Reykjavik," Reagan said. "In fact, we have serious problems with the Soviet positions on a great many issues and success is not guaranteed. But if Mr. Gorbachev comes to Iceland in a truly cooperative spirit, I think we can make some progress."

In addition to the formidable test he faced in his talks with Gorbachev, Reagan left for Iceland dogged by political troubles at home, which he
