...Hyland, deputy assistant to the President for national security affairs. The committee will centralize and-it is hoped-rationalize the occasionally overlapping operations of the various agencies, which are now run independently in separate departments of Government.

The state's position is largely based on a decision by the New Jersey Supreme Court, which held that a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses did not have the right to refuse a blood transfusion on religious grounds. The court then said: "There is no constitutional right to choose to die." Moreover, Hyland and Baime insist that because the state's interest in preserving life outweighs the expressed desire of a patient...
