Abortion
Two states trying coses before Supreme Court
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Lone-awaited
arguments before the Supreme
Court over state efforts to regulate
abortions developed into a dis
cussion of technicalities Tuesday
and the justices suggested they may
not resolve the disputes.
The cases involve attempts bv
Pennsylvania and Illinois to expana,
by threat of criminal sanctions, their
regulatory powers over doctors who
perform abortions.
At one point during public argu
ment sessions, Justice Thurgood
Marshall pointed to procedural
problems in the Illinois case and ex
claimed, “What is before us is exactly
nothing.”
In both cases, almost all questions
from the justices centered on proce
dural matters and not on the under
lying — and always divisive — consti
tutional issues.
The cases have been closely
watched by “pro-life” and “pro-
choice” forces since the court last
spring agreed to review them.
The Reagan administration last
July urged the justices to use the
cases to overturn their landmark
1973 decision legalizing abortion —a
bold move widely viewed as having
no chance of succeeding.
Lower courts, relying on the 1973
ruling, said the Pennsylvania and Il
linois regulations represented too
much interference with women’s
constitutional right to end their pre
gnancies.
The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Ap
peals last year struck down five pro
visions of Pennsylvania’s 1982 abor
tion control law.
Those provisions would have re
quired:
• That doctors obtain the "in
formed consent” of women seeking
abortions after telling them about
“detrimental physical and psycho
logical effects wnich are not accu
rately foreseeable” and about medi
cal assistance benefits available for
prenatal care and childbirth.
• That doctors file various re
ports for the public record about
each abortion they perform.
• That young girls seeking abor
tions first get fne consent of their
parents or a judge..
• That doctors performing third-
trimester abortions, which are rare,
use procedures least risky to a fetus
capable of existing outside the
womb.
Polish premier resigns position
to concentrate on Party business
Associated Press
WARSAW, Poland — Gen. Woj-
ciech Jaruzelski, who crushed the
Solidarity union with the steel fist of
martial law, will resign as premier to
day to concentrate on his work as
Communist Party chief, party and
diplomatic sources said.
He will be replaced as premier by
Zbigniew Messner, deputy premier
ana a member of the party’s ruling
Politburo, the sources reported on
condition of anonymity.
Western diplomats said
Jaruzelski, by deciding to step down
as head of the government, was sig
naling the end of the Polish political
crisis that led to the declaration of
martial law and suppression of the
free union movement in December
1981.
They said the move also was de
signed to strengthen the party which
lost nearly 1 million members after a
summer of labor turmoil in 1980
gave birth to Solidarity. The union
now is outlawed and most of its lead
ers have been driven underground. _
The government change, which
the sources said was approved Tues
day at a Communist Party Central
Committee meeting in Warsaw, was
expected to be made public today-
Messner, 56, has been responsible
for coordinating the economic re
form program since Jaruzelski made
him deputy premier in November
1983.
U.S. House representatives run into snag
while criticizing ‘other legislative body’
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — There are
rules and there are rules, and in the
House of Representatives the rule is,
thou shalt not criticize the U.S. Sen
ate by name.
The other body is “the other
body,” and no one is permitted to
get more specific than that, as Rep.
Thomas Neal, D-N.C., learned when
he complained in debate that “the
Senate” was holding up action on a
housing bill.
The chair intervened to state that
“any statement critical of the other
body is not within the rules, and crit
ical comment of inaction or inactivity
by the other body mentioned here
would violate the rule.”
Whereupon, Rep. Henrv Gonza
lez, D-Texas, inquired wnether it
would satisfy the rule if House mem
bers “preface whatever critical eval
uations we make if we take judicial
knowlege that the other body is hon
orable and illustrious but misbegot
ten in its judgments.”
As debate continued, House
members continued to point out that
the Senate was foot dragging.
Rep. Barnev Frank, D-Mass., ap
parently deciaed that if you cannot ;
call the Senate, “the Senate," you s
might as well call it “something else” i
“Why are we legislating?” he
asked. “Because it takes under the
Constitution the action of both this
body and ‘something else’ to become
law.
