In most of the VA centers
where men from the wars are
gathered, there is little oppor
tunity to learn a great deal about
their native background. They
may come originally from any
state in the union without be
traying the fact, except through
receipt of mail from some mem
ber of the family.
Most of them retain most poig
antly their associations in over
seas assignments. And they re
late experiences they have had
in all parts of the world and in
all the theaters of operation, in
both the World Wars especially.
At Camp White the men are
largely veterans of World War I
and have experiences and con
tacts battling through the years
since they were released after
the signing of the armistice in
1918.
There Is a distinct western fla
vor apparent at Camp White
that is not so marked elsewhere.
The men either hail from Calif
ornia, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Col
orado, Idaho and Montana as
well as Oregon and Washington,
or they have lived there during
part of their lives.
Perhaps the Manhattan boys,
the New Englanders, Midwest-
erners, or the Southerners with
an accent, will not subscribe to
this thesis. But during the past
year, there has been substantial
evidence of the interest in west
ern life. This in part may be due
to the' influence of the movies,
many of which have been west
erns. However, an indication' is
found closer to the domiciliary
itself in the progress of the
monthly publication Dominews,
written and published by and for
the men.
In the past two years, three
outstanding westerners have
edited this little magazine. They
are L. J. "Tick" Malarkey, who
is on leave doing a fire warden's
job during the summer, John
Sharp, at one time on the edi
torial staff of the Salt Lake Trib
une, and George Eiehnor, the
present dynamo running the
paper.
This column is an effort to
tell something about this color
ful "sea lawyer,", mining engin
eer, and authority on games of
chance. George has what might
be called an aristocratic back
ground. His family has been

From Camp White
pioneering in the American tra
dition from away back. And in
his own right he has been places
and seen things. He has caught
the fancy of the members by re
counting many of his experi
ences which big time editors
think are too anecdotal to be
called short stories.
George not only writes these
pieces, but has a line of humor
thaVcan rank with the best in
America. He does not try to be
smart. In fact he says that if
there is anything that makes him
jealous it is to find somebody
dumber than he is. He is all
things to all men around the
place.
We transposes all the art worK
to stencils. He prints and distrib
utes personally the copies as
they come from the press. Most
of the men who have run the
mimeo machine on which Domi
news is printed graduate so rap
idly that he is shorthanded most
of the time.
But it is quite apparent that
George Eiehnor will be remem
bered around Camp White for
one thing in particular, his suc
cessful work in reviving the real
old time west in his writing. He
has hit the golden trail again
and may be back. In fact the
odds are in favor of his return.
Before he left, this writer ask
ed him to give a little picture of
gold mining, old and more re
cent, a subject on which he is an
authority by education and act
ual experience, and here it is:
'Mining", especially for gold, Is
really the true example of what
we call today the free enterprise
system. The lure of gold called
all the seekers of wealth and ro
mance to our West in the early
days.
'Here, each man and his part
ner, using first the gold pan, the
sluice box and the old rocker,
were accountable only to God.
Since there was only one crop
of gold, the "top" was taken by
the builders of the west.
'As time marched on, gold
was found in places thatrequired
going deep into mountains or
washing great quantities of
gravel by the hydraulic method.
"The first hard rock mines
used the old camp mill and eith
er a sluice box or amalgam
plates for recovery.
"Then along came the ball
mill which required less power
'to operate. It could give the ore
a much better grind and hence
a better recovery.
"The best any of these hard
rock methods could recover was
about 65 per cent of the total
amount of gold from the'original
ore. The reason for this is that
gold that was not "free gold,"
that is, gold in a nearly pure
form, could not be recovered,
The other gold is in the form of
sulphides. '
"With the development of the
flotation process ,the free gold
was taken off first and the bal
ance of the ore that contained
gold sulphides was ground finely
and sent through flotation ma
chines.
"A flotation machine Is a ser
ies of cells with impellers that
give a centrifugal action to the
solution of the finely ground ore,
To this mixture are added com
mercial reagents, such as pure
oil, airfloart, xanthate, and others.
These reageants, plus the centri
fugal action, cause the sulphides
to float on top of the solution
and they are then skimmed off
and sent to the smelter.
"Today the most modern me
thod of gold recovery is the
cyanide method. Briefly, it uses
a solution of cyanide to dissolve
the gold sulphides and then
through a zinc recovery process,
chemically changes the gold to
another form which is easily
refined. By this method as high
as 92 percent of the gold
recovered.
Mailman Sues City
For Lost Automobile
Oklahoma City U.R) An
Oklahoma City mailman sued
the city for $75 to repay him for
50 hours of time spent searching
for his car while it was safely
stored in the police garage.
Jack G. Reese also wanted $27
for taxi fares paid while the ve
hicle was gone, $50 in punitive
damages, $7.50 for depreciation
and $60 to repair the transmis
sion which he said police dam
aged. The city, on the other hand
wanted Reese to pay for four
parking tickets and a storage fee
on the automobile.
Both Reese and the police
stolen car division searched for
the vehicle for nine days before
learning that the police parking
division had towed it in to the
garage because of the unpaid
tickets.

Cain Hits Administration
On China Lobby Inquiries
Washington (U.R) Sen
Harry P. Cain says the admin
istration wouldn't have a
Chinaman s chance - of escap
ing disgrace in an investigation
of the "China lobby."
That is why, the Washington
Republican said Friday in a sen
ate speech, the administration
"shudders" at the prospect of
an inquiry despite its "open
hatred" of Nationalist General
issimo Chiang Kai-Shek.
HST Ordered Investigation
President Truman ordered
the government to investigate
the China lobby a year ago to
determine whether it could be
prosecuted for "improperly" in
fluencing U. S. foreign policy.
Police on Lookout For
State police here are on the
lookout for a Humboldt county,
California man, wanted in Eure
ka to face charges of murdering
his estranged wife and wound
ing her woman companion.
Officers said they had been
notified by the . sheriff of that
county that the missing man is

No report has yet been made,
Sens. Wayne Morse (R-Ore.)
and Brien McMahon (D-Conn.)
have called for a senate investi
gation, but no action has been
taken.
Should Make Inquiry
Cain said the "inaction" made
it appear that "the last thing
on this earth the administration
wants" is an investigation of
Chiang or his supporters in this
country. He said the senate
should make such an inquiry "its
first order of business . , . with
out delay."
Cain spoke to an empty sen
ate. Sen: Andrew E. Cschoeppel
(R-Kans.), acting as presiding of
ficer, Was his audience.
Murder Suspect

his fingers is crippled, and he
