Early Exposure. As Hubert Humphrey ended a two-week visit to Europe last week, Nixon, continuing his world tour, began a month-long swing through Asia. Romney-at last-discussed Viet Nam in Connecticut, and Illinois' Republican Senator Charles H. Percy addressed party workers in New Hampshire. California's Republican Governor Ronald Reagan, in office just 100 days as of this week, has already paid three visits to Washington.

Investment-counseling firms often seem to wield a power far out of proportion to their size. Bankers, business leaders and bureaucrats pore over their forecasts. Pension plans, trusts and mutual funds sometimes swing on their recommendations.
