M.P.s SECRETS

WILL BE TOLD

IN 100 YEARS

By GUY EDEN

MOST of the 31,000,000 electors in Britain know what they think of their MP. Colonel Josiah Wedgwood, himself an MP, wants to know what his fellow-legislators, and ex-members, think of themselves.

So he has sent them a series of 24 questions on “What I Think About Myself.” But he has promised that the answers shall not be published for 100 years!

No one, says the colonel, can give "inside" biographical de- tails so well as the people concerned. He has framed the question to get potted life-histories and psycho-analyses in one go. The answers will be for the 40-volume History of Parliament, the first of which is to be published on November 26, at £2.

This is the masterpiece of cross- examination designed to lay bare the souls of politicians:
