Among projects slated for funding are improvements in existing dock facmilites, dredging of the bay channel and moorages, and possibly for1: land acquisition as the county commissioners and the Port Authority move toward expansion of the economic climate of the bay area and of Lincoln County. Part of the levy funds would be used to improve marine, facilities at Depoe Bay, Siletz Bay and in the Yaquina back-bay areas. "We hope these improvements will make the Port totally self-supporting," saidFred Weakley, port manager.

The precise amount of the levy which will face voters on April 11 will not be determined until the comprehensive bay development plan is finalized. 0 9'A has received numerous reports of engine mount failures in 1965-69 Chevrolets, many of them resulting in accidents.

(Photo by Dale Hunnicutt) Blas Nixo National Government Official Against Legalized Pot NEW YORK AP) A tearful reconciliation cemented a rift that threatened to end the marriage of Aristotle Onassis and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in May 1970, the former chief steward aboard the Onassis yacht says. Onassis had become irritated by a series of marital quarrels and suggested a separation, but his wife followed him to Paris and they made up, Christian Carafakis writes in the March issue of McCalls magazine. Although Carafakis worked on the yacht "Christina," he drew on his access to other Onassis employes for the article, an excerpt from Carafakis' forthcoming book, "The Fabulous Onassis." Onassis had pronounced the marriage a "total failure" and his wife silently accepted his suggestion of a separation during a confrontation in her New York City apartment, according to Carafakis. The multimillionaire shipping magnate then flew to Paris and was photographed there that weekend with his former frequent companion, fiery opera star Maria Callas. The sight of the picture prompted Mrs.

Onassis to fly to Paris, Carafakis claims. By the time she arrived at Onassis' home "she looked exhausted, and when she took off her glasses her eyes were red and swollen from crying," Carafakis says. Onassis was out and his wife waited, but when he returned "she rose, very pale, took a few steps toward him and threw herself into his arms, bursting into tears. It was this gesture that saved the day," the author writes. TAIPEI (AP)-Nationalist ChDlaS" National Assembly," meeting to re-elect Chiang Kai-shek president, began work today with a blast at President Nixon's trip to Peking.

The 1,308 delegates adopted a resolution by acclamation which said the visit and its seriously damaged Chinese national rights and interests. It reiterated last Thursday's Foreign Ministry statement that Chiang's government will not recognize any agreements Nixon may reach in Peking, that the Communist has no right to represent the the assembly Sunday he wanted to step down. But the delegates are likely to treat this as a matter of form and re-elect him next month to a fifth term. "T'AlOib'ifgK' I am more than willing to continue serving the country," Chiang said, "I have been in office for a long time and in the light of ray feelings of regrets, am sin-- cerely requesting that you, my fellow delegates, choose a new person of virtue and ability to succeed me as president of the country." The delegates immediately objected and appealed to him WASHINGTON (AP) The government's top drug enforcer says he disagrees with a former aide's recent stand in fa vor of legalizing the use of marijuana and believes the employes of his agency also oppose the idea. John E.

Ingersoll, head of the Bureau- of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, said in an interview that a statement two weeks ago by John Finaltor. in favor of legalizing 4he use. of marijuana "has made a lot of people very unhappy, including some people who had great faith in him." Finlator, who retired Jan. 1 as the bureau's No. 2 joined the executive board of a Washington-based lobby seeking legalization of marijuana use and endorsed repeal of penalties for smoking or possession of pot.

Chinese and American -diplomats in Washington also doubted Chiang would quit. They said he had made such -retirement gestures before. the feeling that he would again accept a draft was strengthened by the fact that "Tiis regime is under special strain now because of the Nixon administration's policy of rapprochement with the Communist regime in Peking.

If Chiang retired now, this would probably touch off a power struggle that could finish the Nationalists. One of the Chinese was a navigator, another a radio operator. Both were said to speak English but the navigator, in order to make himself understood to the pilot, Col. Ralph Albertazzie, had to continually talk in Chinese to ground controllers at Peking who translated for Albertazzie's benefit. "vl I' Price Effctiv.

Berrigan Acts Said Planned HARRISBURG, P.a. (AP)-The government told a trial Jury today that antiwar priest Philip Berrigan was the leader of a group that plotted "a series of illegal, destructive acts" because of "very strong opposition" to American involvement in Vietnam.

Chief prosecutor William Lynch said these acts included a scheme to kidnap presidential adviser Henry A. Kissinger and a "meticulously considered and. carefully planned" operation to blow up heating tunnels in federal buildings in Washington, D.C. "If dissent against the war had taken the course of peaceful protest, we could not be here," Lynch told the Jury of nine women and three men, plus six alternates, in opening the federal conspiracy case against Berrigan and six codefendants.
