- <p> DIAL-A-HELMBUSTER. "Did you know that Jesse Helms was a
- regular contributor to a white supremacist magazine?" That and
- other odd bits of dirt on the archconservative Senator from
- North Carolina, up for re-election in 1990, are available over
- a 900-DUMP-HELMS phone line, the latest twist in politicking.
- Callers are charged $2 a minute. All but 50 cents of that goes
- to Intellicomm, run by Robert Rodman, who says business is
- brisk. Profits are plowed back into Helmsbusting.
