<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>WASHINGTON, July 22 - Judge John G. Roberts has
left little hard evidence of his views on abortion in recent years and is widely
expected to try to avoid the issue in his coming confirmation hearings.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But there is little mystery about the views of his
wife, Jane Sullivan Roberts, a Roman Catholic lawyer from the Bronx whose pro
bono work for Feminists for Life is drawing intense interest in the
ideologically charged environment of a Supreme Court confirmation
debate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some abortion opponents view her activities as a
clear signal that the Robertses are committed to their cause; supporters of
abortion rights fear the same thing. </FONT></DIV>
