        How about refusing to obey a law which one thinks is unjust, if the
        person feels so strongly about it that he is willing to go to jail
        rather than obey the law?  Would you approve of a person doing that,
        dispprove, or would it depend on the circumstances?

        USE WEIGHT VARIABLE VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B.

        SEE INTRODUCTORY TEXT OF VCF0601.

        Weight variable VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B must be used if
        distributions including 1970 data are desired:  see VCF0010.
        Note that use of VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B as a weight reduces the
        1970 total N for this variable:  form 2 whites who should appear as
        code 0 INAP cases are excluded from the 1970 total N.
