| Editorial comments: | Embargoed until 1930. A draft of the press release follows the main text. In last minute revisions by hand MT omitted the phrase "I am a 'conviction' politician" and seems to have come close to dropping the most famous passage of the speech about Old Testament Prophets, reprieving it as an afterthought. A transcript from tape of the speech as delivered may be read here. |
