Gates today signed extradition papers and Indiana officers left for Fo t Worth, Tex., to return two hitch hikers, one of whom confessed the slaying of James J. Williams, 34. of Louisville, Ky.. near Paoli, Ind., March 18. Meanwhile, Capt. Robert A. O’Neal, chief of Indiana state detectives, is studying a confession signed by Paul Edward Gibson, 21. of Jeffersonville. Gibson and a companion. Ernest William Ford. 24. also of Jeflertionville, were apprehended at Fort Worth Sunday. Ford was v/ounded when he drew a gun on a Fort Woith patrolman and was fired upon by a second police-
man.
Second degree murder charges were filed in Orange county circuit court yesterday against the pair. Texas authorities say Ford | will be able to travel back to Indiana as his wounds are not ser-
ious.
The confession received by Indiana state police yesterday states that Gibson fired the shots, which killed Williams.

• Too often, those guilty of misdemeanor take the easy way out. It’s easier to give a weak, spur-of-the-moment alihi than /ace the facts. Perjured testimony hurts the good name of beer. Because it is a beverage of moderation, it bears the brunt of unfair blame when consciences falter before justice. The brewers of Indiana advocate true temperance—not just lip service-in drinking, in driving, in eating, in working and in playing. BEER IS A BEVERAGE OF MODERATION
