The 12th anniversary Tuesday of
the U.S. Supreme Court ruling le
galizing abortion already has pulled
both supporters of a woman’s right
to choose and those against abortion
into marches and meetings across
Texas.
Several Texas cities were the sites
of demonstrations on Saturday,
while others were planned for Tues
day.
Elsewhere in the nation, abortion
opponents organized parades and
rallies while abortion rights support
ers stood watch at clinics, lighting
candles and forming human chains
to protest increasing violence.
The round-the-clock vigils spon
sored by the National Organization
for Women at family planning cen
ters in 18 states are meant to counter
anti-abortion protests that will cul
minate Tuesday with the 12th
March tor Life in Washington, D.C.
At the Routh Street Women’s
Clinic in Dallas, a celebration and
demonstration in honor of the his
toric ruling will be held on Tuesday,
said clinic spokeswoman Charlotte
Taft.
Taft said the purpose of the gath
ering will be “to celebrate freedom
of choice and recognize that this has
been an important benefit for
women in this country.”
At the same time, several hundred
anti-abortion advocates will assemble
outside the clinic in silent protest,
said Bill Price, president of the
Greater Dallas Right to Life Com
mittee.
“What is reouired is not balloons
and flags and loud commotion, but
really a more somber sorrowful
sense of shame — of national shame
and humiliation,” he said.
On Saturday, parades across
South Texas marked the anniver
sary.
In Beaumont, about 250 anti
abortion proponents attended an in-
terreligious service sponsored by
Birthright Inc.
More than 80 sign-carrying dem
onstrators gathered in Harlingen,
walking from the Reproductive
Services clinic to McKelvy Park.
“The reason why we are here is
not political gain, not economic gain,
but compassion,” said the Rev. Kevin
Badeaux, a pro-life supporter and
deacon at St. Anne’s Catholic
Church in Beaumont.
“Many people would like to char
acterize us as bomb-throwing fanat
ics,” he said.
Another march organizer in Har
lingen said their actions were meant
as peaceful expressions of strong
personal beliefs.
“(It’s) a show of support to the
community that there are some nor
mal people who don’t throw bombs,
that have jobs and live in this com
munity but are very ’much opposed
to abortion” in a non-violent matter,
said Mary Ann Ellsworth.
Replica of White House sprouts up in Jordan
Associated Press
AMMAN, Jordan — A Palestinian
businessman’s version of the White
House is rising on a dusty hillside in
the Jordanian capital, overlooking
the boxy villas ami slender minarets
of modern Amman.
From the front and sides, it looks
as if the White House has been
uprooted from Pennsylvania Ave
nue and planted on the steep slope
above Jordan University Street.
Only the word ‘Allah’ in Arabic on
the portico clearly distinguishes the
home of Ghazi Abu Younis from the
northern face of President Reagan’s
house.
“1 have visited the United States,
and 1 have seen the White House
and I am very proud to do the
same,” Abu Younis told a reporter,
speaking above the rock-cutting saws
inside the half-completed building.
Abu Younis, a Palestinian heavy
equipment dealer, sent his two sons
to study at North Carolina State Uni
versity.
He said it wasn’t admiration for
the United States that inspired his
house.
“Actually,” he said, “I liked the
design.”
His brother-in-law, Helmi al-Ad-
ham, incorporated the White House
design in the house’s front and sides.
But from the rear, Abu Younis’
home could be another of the rect
angular stone boxes that have
spread across the hills of Amman
during the economic boom of the
past decade.
Abu Younis’ home, with two sto
ries and a basement, is considerably
smaller than the five-level White
House.
Al-Adham estimated it will have
about 15,120 square feet of living
space, compared with 67,200 for the
original.
The completed structure will dif
fer from the Washington White
House in other ways, too.
It will include seven fountains, as
well as a gymnasium, a rooftop pa
tio, a waterfall that flows into a swim
ming pool and a garden that draws
its inspiration from the palace of
Versailles.
The interior is to have a curving
staircase, a chandelier suspended
above two fountains and a classical
decor chosen by British interior de
signer Dan Ashton, Abu Younis
said.
Abu Younis said he has already
spent about $750,000 on his house,
to be finished this summer.
