DRAFT OF PRESIDENTIAL SPEECH
BEFORE THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
OF THE UNITED NATIONS
"
When Secretary Hammarskjold's invitation to address this General
Assembly on its closing day reached me in Bermuda, I was just beginning
my conferences with the Prime Ministers and Foreign Ministers of Great
Britain and France on some of the problems that beset our world.
During the remainder of the Bermuda conferences, I had constantly
in mind that ahead of me lay a great honor. That honor is mine tonight
as I stand here, privileged to address the General Assembly of the
United Nations.
At the same time that I appreciate the honor and privilege of
addressing you, I also have a sense of excitement as I look upon this
assembly.
Never before in history has so much hope for so many people been
gathered together in a single organization. Your deliberations and decisions
during these somber years have already realized some of this hope.
