We in Grand Rapids have lost one of our greatest and
finest citizens. The nation has lost the outstanding statesman of
recent times. The people throughout the world who hope for peace,
freedom and security have lost a real leader and the one person who
to a large extent is responsible for the ray of hope which is now
visible in our struggle against world domination by the Communist
forces in the Kremlin.
Senator Vendenberg in his many years of service in
the Senate made an enviable record that will stand as an everlasting
inspiration for present and future generations. It is a tragedy that
this superb statesman and leader should leave us at this critical hour
in our Nation's history, but his record should forever be a guiding
light for our people.
America and her allies throughout the world mourn his untimely
passing, but it is most fortunate that the world had the benefit of his
leadership and guidance in recent years when the free people of the globe
so badly needed men of his unquestioned stature.
