Senator John J. Williams Papers: Audio-Visual
The audio recordings in the collection include speeches made by Senator Williams before political or civic groups, and on radio programs. Several of the speeches repeat themes (and jokes) that are outlined in the note cards in the Speeches series. One of the recordings is from the memorial ceremonies in the Rotunda of the Capitol for President Kennedy in 1963. The tape of tributes delivered at a dinner on the occasion of Senator Williams's retirement in 1971 reflects the high regard which was held by many for him. The statement by Governor Peterson expresses Delaware's pride in their Senator, and Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield's comments reflect the great respect of Williams's colleagues for his skill, dedication, and integrity.
