NEW YCRK—^teaming,
torious “'Devil’s Island” is fin-
ally to be evacuated. With the
repatriation of its 2,800 French
convicts and exiles, the western
hemisphere will lose an Old
World hell-hcle that became a
legend.
Passing through New York on
his way to Paris, Maj. Charles
Pean, of the French Salvation
Army, disclosed that under the
plan he had been authorized to
draw up, the first shipload will
leave Cayenne, French Guiana. :
inJuly. Two transports will carry
all of the 800 prisoners and 2,000 ‘
freed convicts new living in the I
colony, he said.
Not since 1939 has a convict
ship arrived at Guiana. Soon j
after that last consignment of
738 prisoners landed, the French
government declared that no
| more would be sent.
During the war, the iron dis-
. cipline relaxed. More and more
