clothing or around the prison. It is
only work for the government.
"We try to build a habit and an
atmosphere of behavior, into which
they step as they arrive. That is
why we bring them in small groups
so we can handle them easily.
“They have behaved although in
a prison one never knows what may
happen.”
Routine Kept Secret
Johnston smilingly declines to give
a sample day's routine at the prison,
located on a rocky little island in
San Francisco Bay. It has been term
ctl America’s ‘Devil Island.'
“We don’t give out the definite
routine,” he points out, “betfuise
we want to build up a psychology
in men in other prisons of not know
ing what they are up against at
Alcatraz.”
The success of the Alcatraz policy
reently was announced by Sanford
Bates, director of the federal bureau
of prisons, who said the island pri
son had had “a wholesome and al
most sporific effect” on inmates of
other penitentiaries. He commented
upon the astonishing quiet at both
Atlanta and Leavenworth.
Outside World Really Outside
Regulations at Alcatraz are part of
the definite federal campaign to de
flate the inmates and break their
connections with the criminal wor
ld.
That campaign includes sharp lim
Rations on all contacts with the out
side. Only one visit a month, and
that from a blood relative, who has
been checked by federal authorities
and is then permitted to visit the
prisoner, Johnston pointed out. The
number of letters a prisoner may
write is curtailed, and they may go
only to a carefully culled list of
relatives.

The prisoners are not permitted
to have newspapers because, as the
warden puts it, “There is too much
spot news of them and their kind and
crime. It might be too stimulating,
or I'd better put it, too exciting
in the wrong way.”
Books and magazines from a sel
ected list are allowed, but the latter
must be sent direct from the pub
lisher and must contain nothing de
risive of government and authority.
Arrivals Announced
The policy of breaking all outside
contacts goes further. No news of
a particular prisoner or his activi
ties passes from behind the walls.
The hope is he will be forgotten.
Trips of prisoners to the prison
are kept secret, as in the case of
Waley, because there might be dan
gers.
"We do not mind admitting when
they have arrived”, says Johnston.
"That is all.”
The first inmates arrived from At
lanta in a ghost train in August,
1934. It now houses some 250 men.
