COVER: Choosing Death. Helping the sick die gently. Cover: Photo by Jim Galante.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
FINAL CHOICE: HELPING THE VERY SICK DIE GENTLY: When dying is all that awaits them, more and more people are choosing certain death now rather than uncertain life on medical support systems. But the decision seldom comes easy, as a NEWSWEEK reporter discovers during three weeks with the doctors, nurses, patients and families in an intensive-care ward. A best-selling guide to suicide fires debate over when it is right to let life go--and who should make that choice when the patient no longer can. Lifestyle: Page 40.

CLARK CLIFFORD AND THE INFLUENCE GAME: The Bank of Credit and Commerce International had ambitious plans for the United States. To fulfill them, the rogue bank learned to play Washington's influence-peddling game on a grand scale. Last week, Clark Clifford, who led an impressive team of lobbyists and lawyers, showed that in this process his own reputation may have suffered a near-fatal blow. National Affairs: Page 16.

IMAGE CONTROL FOR A BLACK ICON: The news that the hit filmmaker Spike Lee is making a movie about Malcolm X, the preeminent icon of black pride, is upsetting some older leaders in the black community. At a recent protest in Harlem, black nationalist poet and playwright Amiri Baraka warned, "We will not let Malcolm X's life be trashed." The Arts: Page 52.
