DEATH OF SIR WALTER NASH
Tribute by the Prime Minister, Mr. John Gorton
The Prime Minister today paid the following tribute to the
former New Zealand Prime Minister, Sir Walter Nash, who died yesterday
( Tuesday):-" On behalf of the Government and the people of Australia
I convey deep regret at the passing of so prominent a
figure as Sir Walter Nash. Sir Walter was a notable New
Zealand Statesman, well known and greatly respected in
many countries. Successive Australian Prime Ministers
and Ministers found Sir Walter a friendly man in discussion
and a man of high principle and dedication to his country and
the cause which he sponsored. I and my colleagues send
deepest sympathy to the family."
