 Lord Home is clearly a man who represents the old governing class at its best ... He is not ambitious in the sense of wanting to scheme for power , although not foolish enough to resist honour when it comes to him ... He gives that impression by a curious mixture of great courtesy , and even if yielding to pressure , with underlying rigidity on matters of principle . It is interesting that he has proved himself so much liked by men like President Kennedy and Mr Rusk and Mr Gromyko . This is exactly the quality that the class to which he belongs have at their best because they think about the question under discussion and not about themselves .
