Adlai Ewing Stevenson (Universal Newsreel, Jul 1965)

Description

The original release sheet reads: ADLAI EWING STEVENSON 1900-1965 He died as he had lived...in the pursuit of peace. Ambassador Stevenson belonged with those men who became great figures without holding high office. Governor of the state of Illinois, Presidential hopeful, United States Ambassador to the United Nations - he leaves a void on today's international scene, which will be difficult to fill. Here are highlights of a distinguished career as Governor of Illinois...as two-time Presidential candidate - 1952 and 1956. As Ambassador to the U.N. It was in his last post that Mr. Stevenson won wide fame and respect. May his epitaph be: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant."
