RETIREMENT OF MR. J. R. WILLOUGHBY
Comment by the Prime Minister, Mr. John Gorton
I am sure I can speak for all Members of the Parliamentary
Party in paying tribute to Bob Willoughby.
He has made an outstanding contribution to our side of
politics over a period of close to half a century. He has played no small
part in the development and progress of the Liberal Party, and for the
past 17 years has given distinguished service as Federal Director.
He enjoys the respect and friendship of us all, and we shall
be sorry to see him go.
