ald from the sixth story of a nearby building. A tremendous amount of controversy surrounds Kennedy's assassination.
On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King was assassinated while speaking on a balcony at a motel in Memphis. He was killed by James Earl Ray, a white racist. In more than one hundred cities, blacks took to the streets in anger. The riots led to 46 deaths and 27,000 arrests. The immediate and lasting effects of the death of Martin Luther King on America are impossible to quantify.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

By the fall of 1963, President John F. Kennedy and his political advisers were preparing for the next presidential campaign. Although he had not formally announced his candidacy, it was clear that President Kennedy was going to run and he seemed confident about his chances for re-election.

At the end of September, the president traveled west, speaking in nine different states in less than a week. The trip was meant to put a spotlight on natural resources and conservation efforts. But JFK also used it to sound out themes—such as education, national security, and world peace—for his run in 1964.

The government had to ___ goods to ensure supplies for the armed forced
olga55 [171]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached or any other context and references, we can comment on the following.

The government had to produce goods to ensure supplies for the armed forces.

During the times of World War and World War II, the United States had to modify what had been produced by the US industries in order to support the troops at the war front.

For instance, before entering World War II, the US lend-lease program of 1939 helped the Allies in that it gave them war supplies.

The US federal government approved the Lend-Lease Act of 1939 in order to support countries such as France and Great  Britain in the war effort. The argument to lend and lease to these countries was that their role was important to keep the United States' economic and political interests safe.

Conditions changed and after Japan's Pearl Harbor attack in December 1941, President Roosevelt asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. That is how the US entered World War II.
