F. C. WINTERS, NOTED
 JAIL BREAKER, IS HELD AT FL RENO, 'OKLA.
Made Escape With 0verton and Others Here in
 1917

F. c. Winters, member of the band of seven men, including David Over ton, who escaped from the Jefferson county jail on the morning of March Okla, according to a report re- ceived Thursday night by M. E, Me Duff, finger print expert of the bureau of Identification of the police department.
 A telegram recieved Thursday night from J. H. Burnett, Chief Spe- cial Officer of the Rock Island line at Fl Reno, stated that F. c. Winters was being held and gave identifica- tion data which. in the opinion of McDuff established his identity with the Winters, who with David Overton and five other prisoners, escaped from the county Jail at o'clock Tuesday morning on March 20. 1917.
 Escape of the seven men occasioned the widest excitement in Birming- ham. Posses of county and city of ficers secured the district in every direction for the escaped prisoners.
 All of the six men except Winters were discovered in the woods back of Birmingham Southern college at Owenton by. deputy sheriffs and in the battle that resulted David Over ton and Tony Malino were killed and J. L. Latham received wounds that resulted in his death next day. Sam Messina, another member of the gang was believed to have been wounded. but made his escape with the other two.
 The posse, who discovered the escaped prisoners and engaged in the battle with them, consisted of Fred H. McDuff, then a deputy, Lucien Brown and Deputies Lee White, Smith and Alexander. About 40 or 90 shots were fired during the battle, which was fought near the home of J. R. Tate, who as solicitor. had urged that Overton be hung in the trial at Huntsville. No attempt to harm Tate was made. however, al though the escaped men had been in hiding near his house for some time. Winters was believed to have left the party immediately after they escaped from the jail. It was thought that he remained in hiding up town for some time.
 The three inside wardens on duty at the time of the escape were sum marily discharged by Sheriff Batson two days later.
 Winters was being held on three charges of forgery. David Overton had been convicted of murder at Huntsville. Malino and Messina were charged with having killed a peddler. J. L. Latham had confessed to forgery and J. Anderson and Frank Smith. the other two escapes, were being held on charges of bur glary and grand larceny.

STATE CAPITAL BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALD

The state highway bond cbmmis sion tonight voted to purchase for the sinking fund of the state. $293,- 900 of the highway improvement bonds which were sold last year to Ward, Sterne and company of Bir- mingham. The decision swas made by the unanimous vote of the bond commission. composed of Governor Brandon. Harwell G. Davis. attorney general, and John A. Rogers. chair man of the bond commission.
 Funds which have accumulated from the sale of automobile licenses and which have been set apart ex clusively for the payment of inter est and retirement of the bonds will be used in purchasing the bonds. which were intended to run for 30 years.
 By the purchase of the bonds for the sinking fund the state will save about S14,000 in interest annually and will have the bonds which may be resold at any time.
 Under the constitutional amend ment, the automobile licenses could not be used for any purpose other than the payment of interest and the retirement of the highway bonds and by this method of financing the sinking fund will contain highway bonds instead of actual cash.
 The decision to purchase the high way bonds was made by the bond commission after a conference with Mir Sterne of Ward. Sterne and com pany.

MUM on venality, dishonesty, and the
livid presentation of scandals, breaks
his contract and is punishable by so
ciety. And the most efficacious form
of punishment to extend to a venal
press is to shut down on patronage.
Here it may be said that the public
who support vile press, or read its
contents become guilty, through CO.
operation, of the same sins as the
press itself unless there be a proper
tionate cause in individual cases, ac-
cording to the the theory of moral
compensation. (Priimmer o. P, Nor
Theol)
If those evils are to be remedied,
journalists and publishers must form
ulate an ethical code for themselves
like other professions, or public au-
thority and public opinion must do so
for them.
Fundamental ethics and moral prin-
ciples would demand that members
of this profession be first of all con-
scious of their tremendous obligations
to public moral welfare. They must
be governed by the dictates of a right
conscience, be sincere and honest in
purpose, Independent and courageous
in the defense of righteousness, timid
and judicious in the reports of wrong
doing, avoiding unnecessary details.
1t should be the endeavor of the
Press to cultivate a refined moral
taste among it's readers, and to re-
strain morbid curiosity. The Press
should direct human minds and hearts
to truth and goodness, if it seeks the
welfare of society, On the other
hand, it sins against public morals by
creating a taste for the low and vile
in lurid exhibitions of the salacious
and sensational.
In fine, we might suggest two other
remedies to counteract the evils of
the Press, if the profession itself as
body will not formulate moral
code to govern its members and debar
