Appeal Made
New TrioI is

DETROIT, April 20 - (F -
A third appeal action in beha.-
of Max Stephen, convicted trait
or under sentence of death, was
set in motion yesterday.
Attorneys Nicholas Salowich
and James z. McCabe filed a
motion for lew trial i" Unit
ed States district court. Judge
Arthur j. futile, who sentenced
Stephan, set May 10 for a hear
ing.
The motion was based on
Stephans own allegations that
he had aided Lieut.. Hans Pc :.
Krug, escaped f isoner, on the
advice of William Nagel that in
doing so he would not be HARM
ing the United States.
Stephan's counsel claimed this
constituted newly discovered
evidence. This evidence, they
said, indicated that Stephan was
not guilty Of treason, as charg-
ed, since there was no intent.
Nagel has denied Stephan S
statements and Federal Bureau
of Investigation men said they
could find 10 substantiation for
them.
The United States supreme
court, which stayed Stephan s
execution, is awaiting his coun-
sells arguments for rehearing
o. the case. In addition. a plea
for executive clemency has been

Reading a British humOr maya

of John Bulls funny bone.
a Joke, the Briton starts to
smile.
Because of different joke
telling techniques, the Briton
and the American laugh at diff
ferent kinds Of gags" said Block.
The British are strong for old
jokes. They love them, like old
songs, partly for their age. But
the doughboys over here are not
amused"
American humor is much fast
or than the British. says Block
We suggest a gag and expect the
audience to supply the answer.
Here in Britain, the comedian
supplies both gag and answer.
AS an example Block supposed
that Benny asks Rochester what
he has been drinking. II can't
say boss, replies Rochester,
but my stomach amt never
gonta have dandruff"
AS played by the British, the
tag line would read: Il can't say.
guv nor, but | hope you weren't
intending to use your hair tonic
tonight"
Secondly, says Block, a great
deal of America 5 humor is built
around insults. Pat says: who's
that pceking over your shout
der" Mike: mo one" Pat:
Don't tell me those arc ears"
The British don't go for in
sultsas humor.
IMPORTANT FUN
But there are certain similari-
ties between British and Ameri-
can humor Both love to gag top
ical subjects. In an English joke,
the boss tells his secretary
you've been such help TO me
you can have any two things you
like" The secretary chooses a
mink coat and an egg. The boss
says isn't that asking an awful
lot? Where in the world can | get
an egg?'
You get the same joke, with
American variations, on every
U. S. comedy program on the air
today
What we hope to do" says
Block, through tWo-Way pro-
grams such as the projected An
glo- American Hour, is to teach
Americans about British humor
and the British about ours.
They'll have to learn about
Jerks and 'drips' and wolves
and we'll have to learn lots from
them
There's an important basis for
common understanding through
humor. Block believes, because
1T is more than merely entertain
ing.
A joke can be verbal cartoon
which packs volume of criti-
cism into a few terse lines. For
instance, Nazi was telling an
Englishman about how good
things are in Germany. Yes"
says the Englishman. but when
some one knocks on my door
early in the morning, l know it's
the milkman."
