   Doctor Martin Luther King, Junior, was assassinated in Memphis on April fourth. President Johnson has expressed sympathy to Mrs. King and called on Americans to reject violence.

    Milo Taggart with you. This evening we are taking records from several sleeves rather than one complete album. An hour can hold more than one kind of mood; we will give each of these its room.

    Service spotSavings

    Let your tour in Vietnam count for something. The Uniformed Services Savings Deposit Program pays ten percent interest on authorized deposits. You may arrange a regular amount from your pay and go home with money in the bank. For eligibility, limits, and deposit instructions, see your unit finance office.

    Service spotDriving

    A vehicle does not care whether you are tired, angry, late, or thinking about tomorrow. It goes exactly where you point it. Keep your eyes on the road, keep both hands ready, and leave the radio controls alone until you stop. In rain, dust, convoy traffic, or blackout conditions, slow down before the road makes the decision for you. Drive as if the other fellow has not seen you. He may not have.

    Service spotBlack Market

    There are markets for practically everything in Vietnam, and one market will buy or sell almost anything: the black market. It deals in stolen and illegal goods. Military equipment, supplies, and military payment certificates do not belong there. Do not buy from the black market, and do not feed it by selling government property.
