UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Secretary-General Kofi Annan expects to be exonerated by the investigation into the U.N. oil-for-food program in Iraq, but his son's situation may be "very different," the U.N. leader's chief of staff said.

Former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker is scheduled to issue a report Tuesday on his investigation into the activities of the secretary-general and his son, Kojo, who worked in Africa for a Swiss company awarded an oil-for-food contract.

The London-based Financial Times and the Italian business newspaper Il Sole 24 reported Wednesday that Kojo Annan received at least $300,000 from the company, Cotecna Inspection S.A., almost double the amount previously disclosed.

Unless you've been reading the Houston Chronicle society page, it's unlikely you've seen any current news about Neil Bush. The third Bush sibling has been almost as invisible as his apolitical brother Marvin, a venture capitalist living in northern Virginia, and his sister Dorothy "Doro" Koch, the youngest of the five Bush siblings, who quietly raises funds for charities in a Maryland suburb near Washington. While Jeb was governor of Florida and George W. was twice elected governor of Texas, Neil was either part of the late Maxine Mesinger's "crème de la crème crowd" at a Houston social event, or a stale S&L footnote: "the director of Silverado Banking, Savings and Loan when it crashed in 1988 at a cost of $1 billion to taxpayers."
