LESLEE "HONEY" BUHLER ALEXANDER Target of whispering campaign that she supports a G.O.P. taboo--abortion rights
More out of stubbornness than nobility, March plugs on with his inconvenient questions. At first it seems that the dead man, a bureaucrat named Buhler, was merely involved in a scheme to get rich selling artwork confiscated from Jews. This would not be a major offense, because it is known that during the war, all Jews were evacuated to the east somewhere -- March isn't clear on the details -- and never came back...
Then matters darken and deepen. March, harassed by Gestapo thugs, finds documents showing that Buhler was present at a high-level conference at Wannsee on Jan. 20, 1942.

Among their discoveries: the federal bureaucracy spends billions each year just pushing paper around. "And in too many cases," says Commission Director Warren Buhler, "paperwork has become the program. We have to get away from that." Among other remedies, the commission proposes the creation of a Cabinet-level department devoted to such "service management" tasks as "reducing excessive and unnecessary paperwork and red tape" everywhere. Possibly not a bad idea-at least on paper...
