  We study the generation of vector meson masses in the Hidden Local Symmetry
(HLS) model of low energy QCD. After demoting the HLS to a hidden global
symmetry (HGS), the rho is explicitly shown to be massless for any value of the
HS parameter "a" and the chiral partner of the pion appears as the Goldstone
boson associated with the spontaneous breaking of the HGS, closely resembling
the predictions of Georgi's vector limit.
