May t. 19$ J year-old Kansas bank robbery by a young gunman who con fessed his part in the crime from a pulpit Sunday was to be charged in connection with the holdup Tuesday. David Williams, a 52-year-old itinerant farm laborer, admitted after 36 hours of questioning to being the "brains behind the robbery which 23-year-old Al Johnson confessed from a To peka church pulpit. Jail Time Doubted But it appeared that neither Williams nor Johnson would serve time for the May 19, 1948, robbery of the Hoyt, Kan., State Bank, an offense which carries a 10 to 50-year sentence on con viction. The Kansas statute of limita tions provides that no person shall be sentenced for a crime other than murder or. treason after two years, unless the ac cused man has fled the state. rne four-year-old banit rob bery case first broke last week when the Rev. Howard Brumme, pastor of the Seward Avenue Baptist church in Topeke, an nounced that an unidentified member of his congregation wanted "to get right with God and man" and would confess his part in the $1,000 robbery from the pulpit. Kept Schedule A few hours before his public confession was planned, how ever, Johnson was identified to officers. He implicated Williams.
