Respectable antiabortion groups disavow violence, unlike Pro-Life Virginia, whose founder, the Rev. Donald Spitz, called Slepian's killer a hero carrying out his Christian duty. But they see their goals achieved through terror, such as the receipt, at four clinics last Friday, of letters supposedly containing anthrax, which sent 33 people to the hospital. What good is the right to an abortion if there's no way to get one? There are fewer clinics today (one in all of Buffalo, for example), and they are more widely dispersed.

On a sticky night in late July, I took a bus to the corner in the Central Ward where the Newark riots began 31 years before. The Rev.

Now, 30 years after the murder, his family is attempting to fill the gap with the assistance of Clayborne Carson Jr., a Stanford University professor who edited King's papers.
