Foreign News: Jail Sale
So law-abiding are post-war Britons that the number of British prisons has been reduced by 27 since 1911. Last week Home Secretary Rt. Hon. John Robert Clynes proudly announced that still more British jails were for sale. Offered at bargain prices were Maidstone Prison, formerly used for first offenders, convicts under 21, and Pentonville Prison, where the Irish patriot Sir Roger Casement was shot in 1916.
