...public his net worth and tax returns for every year he has net worth and tax returns for every year he has been in office. Republicans believe Bayh is particularly vulnerable on the financing issue. Bayh has never disclosed income tax returns and current reports do not reveal every campaign contribution. As Jack Anderson pointed out in January 1972, financing for Bayh's short-lived presidential campaign was never made public. Bayh has also been linked to extensive out-of-state labor support.

"At the Ministry yesterday morning: I seemed to smell the pharmaceutical emissions of a hospital. It's an intense sensation that grabs me by the nostrils, as though I'm in some refuge for rare neurotics." The poet allows himself an awareness of the social climate only through the screen of his own detachment. On a New Year's Eve in Athens he is appalled by the chaos and aimlessness of a raucous crowd; yet he writes as though the lack...
