MURRAY REJECTS
BAIT IMMUNITY
Oklahoma Governor Declines
to Protect Outlaw From
Extradition.
By the Associated Press.
OKLAHOMA CITY. January 33
Gov. W. H. Murray said this afternoon
he could not accept a reported offer for
the surrender of Charles (Pretty Boy)
Floyd, alleged bank robber and killer,
with the condition that he be immune
from extradition to Ohio or other
States.
“I would not have the right to hold
Floyd in Oklahoma If he was charged
with murder elsewhere,” said Murray
on his return to Oklahoma City from
an Eastern and Southern speaking
tour. “It is the law that when a man
Is charged with a heinous crime in an
other State, he shall be extradited for
trial in that State."
The offer came from a man who
represented himself to C. C. Reber.
operative cd the State Bureau of Crimi
nal Identification, as a cousin of Floyd.
Acting Gov. Burns, who became
Lieutenant Governor again at about
the time the offer was made, due to
Gov. Murray's crossing the State bor
der on his way home, said he would
have accepted the offer if he had had
more time.
Floyd, who is accused of numerous
bank robberies in Oklahoma, is wanted
at Bowling Green. Ohio, for the slaying
of Ralph Castner, a policeman. He
also is wanted in Kansas City for two
gang slayings and the killing of a
Federal prohibition agent.

“SKATELESS” WINTER
MARKED BY PICNICS
Ten Permits for Outings in Park
Requested Each Week as Ice
Fails to Form on Pool.
Washington will have its first skate
less Winter for a great many years,
unless Jack Frost hurries up and en
crusts the reflecting pool of the Lin
coln Memorial and Rock Creek. But,
in the absence of skating in January,
Washington is going picnicking in
Rock Creek Park, now.
Officials cf the Office of Public Build
ings and Public Parks said yesterday
that so far this month they have re
ceived requests for 10 picnics a week.
Last year skating was in vogue here
during the four days at the end of
December and 10 days the first part
of January. In 1930 there were 13
skating days in December and Janu
ary. In 1929 there were only three
days in January for skating. In 1928
there were 11 skating days in January
and February. In 1927 there were
eight of these days in December and
January. In 1926 and 1925 Jack Frost
was liberal, for then there were 15
days each season in December, Janu
ary and February. In 1924 there were
11 days in January; in 1923, 10 days in
February, and in 1922 there were five
days for skating in February.
