Harry Howard made his first broadcast several years before he told his life story in Born to Trouble. Ronald Lloyd and I met him by chance in the house of a man who had been recommended to us as a likely speaker for a programme we were planning on the theme of life in prison, as seen from behind the bars by regular attenders. Our quarry, when we located him, had all the right qualifications except the most important of all, the ability to talk about his experiences. However, his friend Harry, a thickset, querulous man in his early thirties, turned out to have an equally impressive prison record and a powerful urge to talk about it, and about himself, his grievances, his future plans and his switched on the tape recorder and took a generous sample, including a startling account of his early life, which we later used in a programme about childhood.

We expected to lose touch with him, as one so often does with the chance actuality. But Harry had been paid for his performance, and took care to add the BBC to the long list of sources which shortage of money was more than usually severe. We had the occasional letter from him over the next four or five years: he'd been ill; he'd been on another voyage (he was intermittently a merchant seaman); he'd been in a mental home somewhere abroad; he'd been in trouble over a woman; and always, of course, he was broke. Then came a long silence, ended by a letter which explained it: he was in prison again; he was due out in a few months' time; he was getting on for forty, and thought it was time he settled down. He'd once been trained as a pig farmer, and liked the life. Did we know anyone who would give him a job?

We made enquiries, not very hopefully, and soon came to the conclusion that the only way to provide him with a bit of ready money when he finished his sentence was to employ hom ourselves at the one thing we knew he was good at. So when the day came, Ronald Lloyd met him at the prison gate as he emerged, and the first tapes of what was to become Born to Trouble were recorded the sam afternoon.

Our great regret was that Harry neither heard his radio programme nor read his book; before they were filmed he dies, cussed and muddle-headed to the last. An ever greater blow, for me, has been the subsequent death of my friend and collaborator of long standing, Ronald Lloyd, who brought so much patience, insight and sympathy to the task of winning Harry's confidence and recording his story. the creator of many outstnading radio programmes, he was especially proud of Born to GTrouble, and there could be no more fitting memorial to his talents.

Whether we choose to believe that all are born equal, and that lack of nurture determines our personal difficulties, or whether we believe more in the inevitable inequality of our chromosome heritage, such considerations are of academic importance to those whose emotional life is interwined with the individual of psychopathic personality. Legal definitions are abstract description of this type of character disorder can never approcah the impression given by a story of this kind, problems of those around the psychopath, as well as the plight in which the person of extreme immaturity finds himself for much of his life.

The psychopath's lack of deep feelings, impulsoveness and attention seeking behaviour, so characteristic of the child, frustrate and perplex both the individual and those close to him. Whereas these qualities, in moderation, may even be an endearing feature, the psychopath's lack of conscience engenders none of the sympathies for childhood innocence, and it takes on a sinister form in the grown man expected to assume the simpliest responsibilities of citizenship.

The story ends tragically, but the perspective is restored by the comment of the eventual growing up of a large proportion of these individuals. Unfortunately, medical progress in relation to psychopathy is as slow as the maturation of many of those affected, and this may be because in no other psychological disorder is the psychiatrist so much involved in the purely social problems which are here so important. Whatever the reason, once cannot but contrast the rpaid, recent advances in treatment of mental disorders with the unchanging problems which extreme psychopathy always bring.

This record is a significant contribution, not only in presenting the unshielded realities of how a small proportion of mankind feel and behave, but also in portraying the many apects of familial, social, remantic and professional interplay in which the eventual therapeutic solution is still concealed. If it creates tension in the listener, it may be just this which motivates doctors and sociologists to tackle the problem. Why not join them?
