“LORD HAW HAW” ON THE AIR
REPORTED BAN MAY BE HOAX ' Melbourne, Oct. 7. ! Although Berlin Radio said on Friday | that “Lord Haw Haw’ (William Joyce); had been banned from the air, Depart- I ment of Information monitors heard | him broadcast from Berlin to-day a ; commentary on Hitler's recent speech, j If “Lord Haw Haw” ‘lias been ban- | ned, a recorded commentary may have ( been used to-day in mistake, but the ! Department of Information suspects! that the announcement on Sunday! was a publicity stunt. The German announcer said then: j “We wish to announce that ‘Lord Haw i Haw’ has been banned from tlie air. , He is not speaking to-day either. In view of the world % popularity of "Lord j Haw Haw,’ we have agreed to allow ! his to state his case in his own words.” j He added that “Lord Haw Haw” would i make his statement from Berlin at ; 8.30 p.m. on Tuesday. Thirty trades unions have decided to ; approach the Australian Industrial Ar- j filtration Court with u request for equal i nav for male and female workers.
