Prisoners leaving the jail in Phenix City, Alabama, probably on their way to work.

Frame from a newsreel film ("Prisoners Go Home Nights"): "Minor offenders report at the Jail every morning to work out their sentences but return to their families at the end of the day. Lunches are brought from home and the community saves the expense of feeding the men."
