Death of a Crusader Senator Kefauver Ends Tour of Life
Senator Estes Kefauver died at age 60, ending a 25 year career in Congress marked by relentless fights against crime and monopolies. Known for his tireless public service and homely persona, Kefauver built a lasting image as a crusader for the little man and a foe of big pharma and other powerful interests. His death is seen as a loss to a nation that often valued him posthumously more than in life.
