Moore agrees with me that gentlemen of the caliber of Mr. Unerwood and Mr. Kaufman will provide an honest appraisal of their investigation of the financial documents.

Sprouse declared, "to allow lingering doubts about conflict of interest or financial misdealings to impair the confidence of the people in their elected leaders." "Doubts, insinuations and questions must be met with honest facts," Mr. Sprouse added. He said he felt that a bipartisan panel comprised of respected leaders of both parties could offer real and lasting assurance to the voters. "Mr. Moore may say that this a grandiose scheme to delude the public, but if he will actually join me in this real and forthright disclosure, perhaps the people of West Virginia will have the chance to see if they are being deluded, once and for all," Mr.

Mr. Sprouse said he understood that Mr. Moore "'had some papers with him that reportedly were his income tax returns, but as soon as the conference was over he gathered them up rather quickly and took them with him' and no one examined them." The Democratic candidate added that he made his tax returns available for continuous inspection. "Mr. Moore has attempted to raise serious questions about my personal business activities and I have requested previously, as have others, that he (Mr.

Moore) reveal his actual income tax returns, not an auditors' analysis such as he provided earlier this year under public pressure," Mr. Sprouse said. Continuing, the Democratic candidate said, "I revealed my income tax returns and other data before the primary election, but since Mr. Moore and his supporters have brought this matter up, I will be glad to make a full disclousure again, without hesitation..
