A government statement said the ore samples, which showed a world record strike of 529 ounces of gold per ton of ore, were "fraudulently increased before it was assayed." The find was reported June 3 and shares of the company which owned the area, the Free State Gold Mines, jumped from $2.80 to $11.40. Tuesday's quotation was $1.89. A test bore, taken under police supervision, showed only two ounces of gold per ton. Moving? Across the hall or across the nation. Free estimates. Eugene Transfer & Storage Co. Phone 4-0417.

IL Basin Projects Funds Needed, Group Reports SALEM (U.R The Willamette River Basin Commission would like to see planning funds made available In the next fiscal year for the Green Peter Dam on the South Santiam River and the Cou gar Dam on the McKenzie. The commission, meeting here, said that both of the. proposed electrio power and flood control dams deserve prompt attention. Chairman Ronald Jones of Brooks, Ore., and Secretary Ivan Oakes of Salem said it takes two to three years to complete plan ning and obtain a construction ap propriation for a project. Members of the commission es timated that the Dorena Dam will be completed this fall, Detroit Dam in 1952 and Meridian Dam in 1954. The members expressed fear that there would be a lull in dam construction activity in the Wil lamette Basin unless planning funds are allocated the following fiscal year. Oakes announced that the dedi cation of Dorena Dam on Row River seven miles southeast of Cottage Grove is set for Oct. 23. Speakers will include Gov. Doug las McKay, Congressman Harris Ellsworth (R-Ore.) and Col. O. E. Walsh of Portland, north Pacific division engineer. The commission approved sev eral drainage meetings. The first will be held at Eugene Jan. 10, covering Lane County. Oth er meetings include: Linn and Benton Counties, at Albany, Jan. 11. Marion and Polk Counties at Salem, Jan. 12.

Har ry Vaughan in the Truman ad ministration is nothing new for military aides to Presidents. Vaughan has been hot front page material in recent weeks be cause of his friendship for and assistance to key figures in the current Senate investigation of so-called "five per centers." Probably no one in government today is closer to the President than Vaughan, a reserve officer who first met Mr. Truman in the Missouri National Guard after World War I in which both served as artillerymen. Vaughan has the President's ear whenever he wants it. His duties, according to his own testimony before the Senate in vestigators, go far beyond the simple liaison functions of one of three armed services aides at the White House. He does, to put it simply, what the President asks, and sometimes more. He Is paid s major gen eral's salary of $10,744 a year. The historical fact is that this has been going on for years.

Several became ambassadors. Many served as presidential secretaries con currently with their duties as aides. Brig. Gen. Horace Porter, for example, served as aide and pri vate secretary to President Grant He became so popular for finding the grave of John Paul Jones in France that Congress gave him the privilege of the floor of both Houses for life. Maj. Archibald Butt, aide to Presidents Taft and Theodore Roosevelt, was noted in Washington for his Influence, par ticularly in the administration of "T.R." Rank Usual Vaughan's rank as a major gen eral is not without precedent. The Army aide to the late Presi dent Franklin D. Roosevelt was Maj. Gen. Edwin M. (Pa) Wat son who also served for several years as the President's appoint ment secretary. Watson's secretarial role was one of considerable power because to a large extent, he exercised control over Mr. Roosevelt's daily list of callers.

A number of Presidents gave their military aides a choice plum on the side the job of superintendent of public build ings and grounds in the Dis trict of Columbia. As a mat ter of fact, tltis was the cus tom rather than an exception from the early nineties until the time of President Coolldge. The overall White House staff is smaller today than it was dur ing the later years of the Roose velt administration. But the aides still blossom in profusion when the social season comes around. Actually, a score or more of smartly uniformed young men known as "aides" will be on hand for a big White House party. These men serve only at social functions and for many years have made many feminine henrts flutter with their martial color and courtly manners.
