Polish President Lech Walesa answers questions about his finances Thursday in Warsaw. Walesa vowed Friday to force changes in the ex-communist government if re-elected over the weekend, while his leftist rival Aleksander Kwasniewski promised a new era of harmony. Final statements of the presidential rivals in Sunday's vote underlined the bitterness dividing the pugnacious Walesa, who led Solidarity's fight against communism, and the smooth Kwasniewski, who was a career official of the old system. Both candidates have been accused of financial improprieties.
