Nebraskan May Not Accept Federal Job ._ Sen Francisco, _ Nov. 16—a—A ‘mild-mannered midwesterner Thurs- @ay frankly admitted doubts about taking the wardenship of Uncle Sam's new island prison for desperate crim- nals. “I just don’t know yet,” drawled We man to whom federal authorities have offered the job—William T. Fen- ton, for many years warden of the Nebraska state penitentiary. “There are many things to be considered.” Just beyond the San Francisco sky line is a solid block of rock rising from the waters of San Francisco Bay, Al- catraz Island, the new prison. It is there that the government proposes to segregate George “Ma- chine” Gun Kelly, notorious kidnaper, and other criminals of the more des- Perate type. Fenton, who inspected the island, in use since before the Civil War as an army disciplinary barracks, admit- ted he liked the physical setup. He said that certain improvements would be necessary, however. ‘The veteran Nebraska warden said one important factor in his indecision | was reluctance to break away from old surroundings and acquaintances.
