ONE-MINUTE RADIO SPOT #1
ANNOUNCER
The most obvious symbols of today's affluent society are the
outdoor barbecue and the sports car. The most incongruous
is the rat. According to the 1960 census, more than 4 million
urban dwellings were completely dilapidated, 3 million more
were badly deteriorated, and another 2 million had serious code
violations or were overcrowded. If building codes were enforced,
most ghetto buildings would be boarded up. During the nineteen-
thirties, we saved the farms from starvation. Now the cities
need help. Before they die of neglect. If you think there's
nothing you can do to help, think harder. For more information,
write Urban America, Box 6087, Washington, D.C. 20005.

Urban America - Crisis In Our Cities Campaign
ONE-MINUTE RADIO SPOT #2
ANNOUNCER
The year 2000 is little more than a generation away. For our cities,
the question is precisely this: Will the New Millenium mark a
celebration or a wake? If you think you can sit snug ina suburban
split-level while the cities slide downhill, you're only kidding
yourself. Slums won't stop at the city line any more than commuters
do. What happens to our cities happens to our suburbs. Together
we can remake our cities. We will. We must. If you think there's
nothing you can do to help, think harder. For more information
write Urban America, Box 6087, Washington, D.C. 20005.
