...that I met my guide
and interpreter, Dith Pran...

:01:05
...a man who was to change my life...
:01:08
...in a country that I grew to love
and pity.

:01:19
So here we go
with Voice of America...

:01:22
...news for Southeast Asia.
:01:24
It's 6:45 and a partly cloudy
morning here.

Clouds too in Washington.

President Nixon announced he'll
address the nation on Watergate...

:01:35
...within the next few days.
:01:37
The speech will be Nixon's
first since May.

:01:41
The scandal has caused resignations
and paralyzed the White House staff.

:01:45
It has also led to intense
confrontation and perhaps...

:01:49
...a constitutional crisis
with Senate investigators...

:01:52
...and a special
Watergate prosecutor.

:01:54
The speech was announced
after the Gallup Poll disclosed...

:01:58
...that Mr. Nixon's popularity
had fallen to the lowest point...

:02:02
...for an American President
in 20 years.

:02:16
A Supreme Court judge,
William O. Douglas...

:02:19
...has ruled against an appeal
by the Administration...

:02:22
...for a stay of the injunction...
:02:23
...on further U.S. Bombing
missions in Cambodia.

:02:27
Congress has already ruled
these bombings illegal...

:02:30
...and they should cease in one
week's time on August the 15th.

:02:55
Let's go, Sarun!
To the hospital!
