Chest Singer BARITONE TO ENTERTAIN ON RADIO, OKLAHOMA CITY, January 23— | 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 15 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 of 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 be 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 poiiceman. He also is wanted in Kansas City for two gang slayings and the killing of a Federal prohibition agen. CIVIC GROUP TO HAVE MRS.
