Abortion Law Liberalized
Editor's Note: This is the first in a three-part series on abortion. By JULIE SMITH
By JULIE SMITH
Kansan Staff Writer
1 July, 1970, Section 21-3407 of the Kansas Criminal Code went into effect on Wednesday. The law states that unauthorized punishable as class D felonies. in the case of a justifiable abortion it must be performed by a doctor or nurse at the hospital. The abortion must also be approved in writing by three witnesses.
In this new law there are three types of cases that justify abortion: it is likely to result in serious damage to the physical or mental health of the mother. (2) When a child will be born with serious physical or mental defects. (3) When pregnancy was a result of incest or rape.
There is another provision in the law allowing for shortening of贤役 to 10 years. E.P. Wilson, professor of law, said it was based on the premise that the judge should girl under that age was a felonious act, as was rape and murder.
Wilson said that there were no residency requirements in the case of a child under the law although there was no mention in the law about parental consent,

He said that most doctors were probably taking a conservative approach, and added that physicians with liberal view on abortion could have made up for the health of any unwed mother "in jeopardy" because of their condition.
The Kansas Legislature passed the law in 1989 but they had been working on abortion reform for years. In 1990, Wilson said that in 1963 an effort was made to pass a reform bill. It was not until 2005 in the House of Representatives. The old Kansas law allowed abortions only to save the life of a woman.

Senate Meeting Is Postponed Until Thursday
"The breakthrough in abortion reform has occurred only in the past five years," Wilson said. When the bill was presented in the Senate last year, it was much more liberal than the version finally passed." Wilson
"The controversy about the abortion was not if it should be liberalized, but how far should it be liberalized." Wilson said.
The special Student Senate meeting, originally scheduled for tonight, has been shifted to 7:00 E. Room of the Kansas Union.
Jack Scott and Dave Meggessey are scheduled to speak tonight. Senate sponsorship of their appearance made heading to Bill Ebert, Topkea student and student body president.
There are two items on the table, one for a meeting. The election of a new student body vice-president will take priority, filling the vacancy with a candidate. Ms. resignation last Tuesday. Her items include considered.
The new law was built around a model code for state legislatures recommended by the American Bar Association, which proximately ten states have adopted this law or similar laws. Hawaii was the first state to legalize abortion on request, but it is not to the woman and the doctor.
"However, this law does not permit a woman to get rid of any unwanted pregnancy." Wilson said.
The Senate passed that version and it was hung up in the House of Representatives, the largest source of opposition came from the Catholic Church. He said he would not "were trying to play God." The bill was endorsed and proposed by a majority of voters.
said it was very similar to the one that happened in a criminal offense only when not performed in a licensed hospital by a licensed doctor.
