Otto Lange of Camp Wolters explains: "Soldiers might stray apart, particularly at night The army has found out the best way to bring them together is to fry liberal quantities of on ions and hamburger meat and let the aroma ferret out the men." Daniel Welch Wilson, 30. and his brother, Clovls Leo Wilson. 31, wanted in Stockton, Cal., on felony warrants charging for gery, were in custody here today following their arrest last night by city police. The former was in city Jail and the latter In county lockup. The elder Wilson was quoted ; by city police as refusing to waive extradition, and Sheriff Martin Ansbro of San Joaquin county has been notified. The specific charge agr.inst the two brothers was not known, as both 1 have declined to talk, police said. ; Police said that machinery un doubtedly would be put in mo tion to have them extradited, 1 as a circular from Sheriff Ansbro indicated that both were badly wanted in Stockton. The cir cular, which led to their arrest, slated that "both were equally guilty" and that San Joaquin county would extradite.
