...member of the cast of Pygmalion whose work pleased everyone was 26-year-old Wendy Hiller. Famed as the star of Love on the Dole, whose coauthor, Ronald Gow, she married in 1937, Wendy Hiller plays Eliza with a minimum of frills, and complete sincerity. To her, as much as to Playwright Shaw and Producer Pascal, goes the credit for making Pygmalion come to life on the screen more completely than it ever did upon the stage...

Nor would friends of Secretary of State Hull's reciprocal trade treaties add peace to the scene at the bland suggestion of the Act's coauthor, Representative William Patrick ("Billy") Connery Jr. of Massachusetts. He suggested that the Labor Standards Board would be given permissive authority to increase import duties if increased U. S. labor costs led to threat of destructive foreign competition...
...Dealer but a scholar-journalist who for 42 years has been a keen observer of the U. S. scene. Burton Jesse Hendrick has thrice won the Pulitzer Prize, twice for biographies (Life and Letters of Walter H. Page, 1922; The Training of an American, 1928), once for history (coauthor with Admiral William Sowden Sims: The Victory at Sea, 1920).
