FOR PRESS P. M. No, 75/ 1964
DEATH OF SENATOR WADE
Statement by the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. Sir Robert
Menzies
Senator Wade's death is a sad blow; he seemed
to be recovering. He was a man of quiet strength of
character, a really first-class Minister and, as a
colleague, uniformly friendly and helpful.
In sending our sympathy to his widow and son,
we would wish them to know that we share their own sense
of loss.
CANiBERIA, 19th November, 1964.
