A REVIEW of the whole problem of LR.A. prisoners is likely to follow the recent week-end mutiny by the 19 terrorist Irishmen in Dartmoor.

The authorities, it is thought, will consider it is unwise to keep the men to- gether in large groups, where they are more likely to create trouble.

The men who fired the roof of the gaol and put two prison officors they had overpowered into cells have been placed in solitary confinement along with two other I.B.A. men who last week refused to do certain work given them. They will exercise individually and they will have to go without their luxurica-tobreco and sweets-which they can buy ut Princetown with pocket- money allowed prisoners.
