        There has been some discussion about abortion during recent years.

               1. By law, abortion should never be permitted.                 
               2. The law should permit abortion only in case of rape,        
                     incest, or when the woman's life is in danger.           
               3. The law should permit abortion for reasons other than rape, 
                     incest, or danger to the woman's life, but only after    
                     the need for the abortion has been clearly established.  
               4. By law, a woman should always be able to obtain an abortion 
                     as a matter of personal choice.
