Estimates of how much the troubleshooters may eventually find range from $50 million to $100 million or more. It is a cornucopia of miscellany-"everything from vaginal foam to cement mixers," says one AID official. Among the items found so far: tin plate, steel sheet, chemicals, dies, pumps, cotton, newsprint, forklift trucks, photocopying machines. Says Frink in Hong Kong: "We have part of a rice mill. It may be an entire rice mill-I won't know until I get into the boxes. The same thing with an edible oil mill. There is a big shipment of ladles...
...Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. This week, for instance, W is out with a cover story on next fall's ready-to-wear collections from Paris.

Rauschenberg's illustrations to Dante's Infer no (1960) were pale transfers from newsprint. But the Hoarfrost prints extend Rauschenberg's delight in faintness to a ravishing lyricism: because their constituent images are so familiar, clear-cut and even brassy, and yet presented with such rippling and indistinct sweetness, they become a visual equivalent of free-associative dreaming - creative inattention at play.
