THE WHITE HOUSE

Office of the Press Secretary

For Immediate Release June 14, 1997

STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT

I have known and admired Dale Bumpers for over 25 years. He was a great governor and he has been a great senator for the people of our native state and the entire nation. We will miss his courage to stand against the tide, his vision and his eloquence. Hillary and I wish him and Betty all the best. We will miss him. So will the Senate. So will America.
