Speedup In Missile Program May Cost Up To $42 Billion By ELTON' C. FAY AP Military Affairs Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi dent-elect John F. Kennedy has said he wants to speed up the missile program, expand forces for fighting conventional war, im prove -air defense, do more about protection against rocket-firing submarines. ' If the Incoming administration makes these and oilier changes inj the nation's military program it will cost money perhaps more than the budgeted defense pro gram submitted by the outgoing Eisenhower administration. But Kennedy also has expressed belief tion, not the pre-deter mined con fines of a budget. This statement is not unprece dented. It has come from all ad ministrations of peacetime years. Always it has been countered by the argument that the shape of the military is of necessity pal terned to that of the budget. One of the first things that Ken nedy may have to do is tackle the question of service dependents overseas. The Eisenhower administration, seeking to arrest the dollar drain, decided that the number of fami- lies of servicemen living abroad should be halved. Angry objec- Output Cut Is Apparent Failure tions came swiftly'. It was con tended morale was threatened. that military personnel might leave service by the thousands. The outgoing administration re treated a little, softened some of the measure The new administra tion will be under pressure to void the whole dependents-return or der. The dependents' question is only a facet of the bigger problem of reducing the dollar-gold outflow, If the situation does not improve, it conceivably could influence the size of forces which can be con tinued in the NATO organization and elsewhere overseas. EUGENE (AP)-The price of index grade fir plywood dropped to Sou today and the industry's voluntary production cutback plan was called an apparent failure. Crow's Lumber Price Index. Portland, said the price tumble started Friday was down to $80 from the previous $68 today. This is the lowest since the end of World War II. although it fell to the same level last August. Industry sources said that com petition will be the word now, and some producers were I talking about selling at less than $60 il necessary to make sales. Efforts to keep prices up by restricting production ended last week, the Wall Street Journal re ported today. Prices fell in two quick steps to $60 from $68 a thousand square feet for the sand ed quarter inch thick index grade. United States Plywood Co.. ac cording to the Journal, started the slide by going from $68 to $64. Simpson Timber Co., Seattle. soon began taking some orders at $60 and the trend was established. Outout of the Weverhaeliser Co.. according to George Weyerhaeu ser, vice president, has been "substantially curtailed." but he added, "the price change has; thrown it w ide open now. We are going to sell orders at a compcti 'ive price and operate plants ac jording to the order flow we can generate." Major producers blamed smaller TMLft AND NEWS. Klama'h Falls, Oregon Wednesday, January 18, 19M PAGE producers for failure to hold the price line. Many large units of the industry have been operating on a reduced-shift or a four-day-week basis (or some months in an attempt to hold the $68 price, j But, sources said today, not enough of the Industry adhered to the voluntary cutback. Anti-trust laws prevent anything but a vol untas program. What will happen next is a ques tion. Many millmcn say that the industry cannot turn a profit at $60 and that the next step might be to close up entirely. The price of plywood got into politics, too. The executive committee of the Lane County Democratic Central Committee wired Sens. Wayne Morse and Maurine Neubcrger, asking for "early action by ap propriate departments of the Ken nedy administration." George Balsjgcr, county chair man, said a survey showed that the "economic situation of the lumber industry is rapidly ap proaching a crisis."

Sandy Blvd., Portland 12, Oregon, AOmtTUnHWT that billions can be saved by ad ministrative improvements and curtailing service competition. Beyond these programs which can be controlled by Kennedy and his defense secretary-designate, Robert S. McNamara, are other potential factors which can not be decided by national policy making lone. Shifts in the international situa tion can influence profoundly Ken nedy's national defense policies. He comes into office as new ten sions mount in Southeast Asia, as relations with Cuba worsen, as the future trend of NATO defen sive strength is considered, as pressures increase for resumption - of nuclear weapons tests. Any one of many world prob lem can dictate the size, kind nd deployment of U.S. forces, . An argument reiterated during the presidential campaign was that the United States had lost prestige militarily as well as politically. Democratic critics aimed particularly at the missile category. In answering a series of questions by the publication "Mis siles and Rockets," Kennedy said during the campaign that he would send to Congress several specific requests, among them proposals to "accelerate our Po laris, Minuteman and other stra tegic missile programs. In the same statement, Kennedy laid competition between the armed forces must be minimized, that "our competitors lie on the other side of the Iron Curtain. It happens that the sharpest competition among the services at the moment concerns the very weapons mentioned by Kennedy the Navy's Polaris missile-atomic submarine system, on the one hand, and the Minuteman and other strategic missile programs of the Air Force. For years, the Air Force had been keeping its eye on and directing sharp words at the Navy's aircraft carrier force, that other air force." It was still con centrating on the competition of naval airplanes and carriers when suddenly it became aware of the Polaris weapon system, by now a reality with the first rocket boats en station. Overseas continental target areas which can be hit with mis siles fired from submerged sub marines also can be attacked with the long range strategic missiles of the Air Force. So now Air Force spokesmen are hammering hard on the idea of precision at tack on military targets instead of attacks on enemy population cen ters designed to inflict broad, gen eral damage. Precision attack and a "counter-force" of missiles primarily aimed to destroy enemy military power has become the new Air Force position, Available to Kennedy will be the policy followed by the present administration: a mixture of stra tegic weapons launched from, dis tant or intermediate ranges, from protected sites and from sub merged submarines, by plane carried nuclear bombs as well as missiles. But there undoubtedly has been duplication in the development programs of the services. Missiles closely. similar in range and load- carrying capability have been de veloped independently not only by the Navy and Air Force but by tne Army. There are problems other than these strategic concepts facing Kennedy and McNamara. The budget, for one. Kennedy has said "defense spending must be based on the security needs of the na Memorial Asks Medical Care SALEM AP - A state Senate Joint memorial calling for federal medical care for the aged under Social Security was introduced Monday by slate Sen. Vernon Cook. D-Gresham. Cook said he was joined as prin cipal sponsor by Rep. Ed Bene dict. D-Portland.' The memorial says it is pres ently impossible for millions of cersons in the United Stales to obtain adequate medical aid be cause of the high cost of medical and hospital care. ' It calls medicare under Social Security "the most feasible, dem ocratic and dignified method for assuring medical and hospital care to our elder citizens." 19 ... mm m jj si jiii i in B ... m I () I 12 Inch Hi-Fi Loni Play CLASSICAL RECORDS BY PHILHARMONIC Tap Conductors and Orchestral -All famous composers 7ft VOLUMES FROM WHICH To Choose 1.49 Val.
