...Kennedy's darkest facts dealt with the 1936-37 feature schedule. This schedule was first considered last November and by May included 50 pictures. Many were so vaguely conceived that as soon as some attempt was made to flesh out the title with narrative detail they had to be dropped because suitable casts were unavailable, costs were too high or the sales department did not like them. Three weeks later the original list of 50 was down to 29, only three of which were in production. Not one had a completed script. Meantime other cinema companies were nearly ready...

Having won the election Mr. Baldwin, who had created for "Tony" Eden the hitherto unheard of office of "Minister for League of Nations Affairs," sat back contentedly to let Ethiopia and Italy be dealt with in practical fashion by Sir Samuel Hoare, then Foreign Secretary, and by the bril liant professionals of the Foreign Office whose permanent head is Sir Robert Gilbert Vansittart.
