FILE - This Jan. 15, 2012 file photo shows the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in Washington, with the quote carved on the side of new memorial in Washington that will be changed. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar endorsed a plan Tuesday to remove a disputed inscription from the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, rather than cut into the granite to replace it with a fuller quotation. Salazar said he had reached an agreement with Kingâs family, the group that built the memorial and the National Park Service to remove a paraphrase from Kingâs âDrum Majorâ speech by carving grooves over the lettering to match existing scratch marks in the sculpture. Memorial sculptor Lei Yixin recommended removing the inscription this way to avoid harming the monumentâs structural integrity. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File)
