...assorted officials and took in an estimated $20 million. But all too many U.S. abortionists are dangerous defrocked doctors-alcoholics, drug addicts, sexual perverts-or worse, bungling amateurs who don't hesitate to finish a sloppy job by tossing clients off tenement roofs or dismembering those who die. Equally sobering are the slum women who cannot afford even amateurs and do it themselves with hatpins, coat hangers and putrid soap solutions, which are often followed by lethal infection. Most desolate of all, perhaps, are those who cannot and dare not abort. Among the poor, who still know little about...
