        There is much discussion about the best way to deal with racial       
        problems.  Some people think achieving racial integration of schools  
        is so important that it justifies busing children to schools out of   
        their own neighborhoods.  Others think letting children go to their   
        neighborhood schools is so important that they oppose busing.         
                                                                              
        Where would you place yourself on this scale, or haven't you thought  
        much about this?  (7-POINT SCALE SHOWN TO R)
