It was a name faestc-.ved in dcr:s;cn on the best broadcaster that the Nazis had. His curious rasping drawl was known tc »ear!y every Brit'sh radio listener, and as he announced 'Gairmany calling! Gair- mar.y calling! Gairmany ca'lir.g! Here are the Reichsender H,itn- bourg. Station Bremen, and Station DXB on the thirty-one metre band. You are about to hear ciH- news in English", he was to some as a red rag to a bull, but to ntost he was a Joke. His nick-came, 'Lord Haw Haw ' was given tc him by a news- paper and used as the tit'.e cf a war- time London musical comedy, and imitarions of him becatiie part of the sicck-in-trade ot every mimic. 'lord Haw Haw's' real ran-.e was as the world now knows, \\ i'- liam ,'oyc«. He was "nanged for ueason on January 3, 1V46. Treason ia the greatest of all crimes, and the uial at Old Bailey in London of this notorious little mail, with his razor-ilashcd cheek and insinuating voice, attracted wide attention, r'ne whole thing devolved on a question of nationality and the privileges and duties attached to the holding c: a Britisii passport.

There's a machine-aj;e miracle for > oti- simple as ti may stem. Manutacnirers of reacetiine goods on both sides of the Atlantic have been trying to make it happen for 50 years. Thfv conldn't get to first base. But now it's "an objective made uri;ein by military plannii^g." So our United States State Dt-partiiiftu and National Bureau of Standards have been stirring their stunips, and so have British ofiicials involved in comparable worK. Long arid complicated negotiations seem about to be crowned with success. Why this tnternataional fuss about ituis and bc^Us: Don't we and the British botlt use feet and inches? This sounds like the son of thing a few smart lads could arrange by air mail and settle in an hour by transatlantic telephof.e. .\fter that, an Anterican who lost a nut off a trunk h,stid!e in London coitld go to the nearest ironmonger â€" that's a bloke who sells hard- wareâ€"and buy an Fnglish-niade nut to replace it. The satne would go for nuts and bolts on weapons, aircraft parts, and many other kinds of war goods which this country atid Britain have been trving to put or. a common basis since the start of World War 11. It's hard to read about such things vvithont gttiing red tatitis That's a dull feeling cf utter discouragement in the seat of our intelligeiicc. For half a century, the tnechaitical brains of two great nations have struggled vainly to make a British bolt fit an .\inerican pviinp handle.

The case finally hinged crt Joyce's possession of a British passport; which he applied for and was grant- ed when he left Britain for Oermanv immediaieiy before the cut'oreak of war, and the Judge ruled that be- yond the shadow of a doubt the prisoner at that time owed al- legiance to the Crown, ar.d that nc- tbing thereafter happened to alter tka: fact.
