The American Nazi party staged a demonstration today at the British Embassy in an attempt to protest to British Prime Minister Harold Wilson over restrictions on British Nazis.

Police arrested one Nazi, Leslie Hudson, who manacled himself to a rail fencing the Embassy ground and displayed an appeal for “free speech for British Nazis” printed on his sweater. He was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, the police listing his address as the headquarters of the George Rockwell movement in nearby Arlington, Va.
