THE PANTAGRAPH, SUNDAY, APRIL 5, 1981 King followers mark ar anniversary of killing ATLANTA (AP) Friends and relatives gathered at the grave of Martin Luther King Jr. on Saturday to mark the 13th anniversary of his assassination, and his widow called for an end to the "climate of violence" gripping the country. Elsewhere in the nation, marches and rallies were scheduled to honor the civil rights leader who was shot to death April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tenn. Many demonstrations also mourned the unsolved deaths of 21 black children and one young black man here. About 125 people marched through downtown Raleigh, N.C., to commemorate King and show solidarity with the families of the slain or Dwight building tabbed historical By Sharon Gilfand DWIGHT Tony Thorsen is one very happy man.

Sending in paperwork after months of research through every copy of the Dwight Star Herald since 1891 has paid off. On Saturday, the Dwight railroad depot's nomination to the National Register of Historic Places was approved by the Illinois Historical Sites Advisory Council, according to Thorsen, president of Dwight Historical Society. The vote was 14 yes, with one member abstaining. Thorsen said the nomination, which will be sent to the director of the Department of Conservation, will then go to the National Register of Historic Places in Washington, D.C., for consideration. Happy, fabulous," he said.

"I'm glad it really The depot, an 89-year-old landmark, is built in a Richardsonian Romanesque style of Bedford Blue Stone. It has been used for office space and storage by the owners, Illinois Central Gulf, since 1971. Thorsen said ICG sent a letter of protest, but it was not notarized as required, so it was not an official objection. He said he believed the railroad would continue to fight the building getting the historic designation. The historical society has tried to buy the building from ICG.

So has the village of Dwight. If the designation is approved in Washington, D.C., that will not ensure the depot will not be torn down, but if federal money is involved in property to be damaged or razed, the National Register must be notified by the owners first. Thorsen said he had no idea how long it will take for the Register in Washington to consider the nomination. He is also worried about proposed federal budget cuts which would cut $32.5 million from the preservation budget, leaving $5 million for the National Trust. That would mean, he said, there would be no federal money for state officers to administer the National Register or review the impact of federal projects on historic property and no matching grants for preservation projects.

Thorsen hopes that does not happen.

Meanwhile, Coretta Scott King told a group of about 30 people that the assassination attempt Monday on President Reagan "leaves us with an alarming but clear conclusion: No one is safe and secure and everyone is affected by the current epidemic of Speaking at a news conference, Mrs. King said the climate in the country today is reminiscent of the racial turmoil before King's slaying. "The climate of violence which existed prior to Martin Luther King assassination, and what is existing today, and what has been latent in our society all along, is something we have to continue to mobilize against," she said. Mrs. King, who laid a wreath at King's grave, was accompanied by three of the couple's children.

Martin III. Dexter and Bernice: King's father, the Rev. Martin Luther King Sr. and his sister, Christine King Farris. The 80-year-old minister said later that his only remaining goal is to "do whatever I can with the strength I have left to keep Martin Luther King dream Despite his concern for civil rights under the Reagan administration, King said he is optimistic about the future.

"We're going to make he said. got some more suffering to do. Some of us are going to die, but in the end, we're going to make Mrs. King said the unsolved deaths of black children in Atlanta make it clear that "something is fundamentally wrong with a society which creates such sickness and depravity. The crisis is in Atlanta today, but it could be anywhere in America tomorrow and none of us would be too surprised." The only way to bring an end to such violence.

she said, is to change the poverty and racism that spawned it. we reasonably expect a healty society when more than 25 million people are living below the poverty she said. "Can we expect safe communities in a nation where people are more likely to die from violence than disease? Can we anticipate safety for our children in a nation which takes food stamps and school lunches from poor children so the generals can buy more nuclear weapons?"
