	Gaston Means at AllExperts
		Gaston Means came to Washington, D.C., under the Bureau of Investigation Administration of Benjamin Burns.
		Means was found innocent primarily because of the local outrage that New York Attorneys were used on behalf of the prosecution staff.
		Means final flirtation with America was in 1932, when he convinced Harding friend and confident Evalyn Walsh McLean, owner of the Hope Diamond, that he knew the whereabouts of the Lindbergh baby.

	The Strange Death Of President Harding
		Gaston Means was an agent and investigator for the Justice Department's Bureau of Investigation (the forerunner of the FBI).
		Means made $83 a week at his government job, but he made far more as a member of a political gang (the members of which I will sometimes call the conspirators).
		Means also found numerous gifts which Harding had made to Britton s son, e.g., a ring, a baby carriage, etc. Thus, the investigation did not serve its intended purpose: it confirmed, rather than disproved the rumors.

	The Jujube Spotlight - Gigi
		For men, this means you must have money to spend on love nests, jewels, clothing, and trips to Venice; for women, this means you must have youth, beauty, the decorative female accomplishments, and a willingness to endure a life that, basically, adds up to high class prostitution followed by spinsterhood.
		Gaston visits Gigi whenever he wants a break from superficiality, and the chemistry between them is wonderfully palpable; he absolutely blooms when she cheats at cards or gets him to sneak her sips of champagne.
		Powerless as all such women are in her society, Gigi agrees to accept the fate which Gaston offers in the standard terms of his lifestyle, but in the end the real affection he feels for her (probably the only real emotion he's ever felt) proves to be the saving grace of both.

	THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF WARREN HARDING
		The difference between Gaston Means charecter assissination on Warren G. Harding (the ghost written "The Strange Death of President Harding") and Robert Ferrell's the Strange Deaths of President Harding (note the play on words) is the difference between pouring pure sugar down your gullet or eating what is best for the body.
