Plywood Prices
Drop Sharply
PORTLAND i ITU - Plywood
prices reacted swiftly to the tim
ber industry labor peace this week
as prices on quarter-inch sanded
items dropped $5 from peak prices
ot $85 a thousand.
The price change in straight
lumber was not so abrupt as most
lumber items were not seriously
affected by the strike. Crow's lum
ber Digest reported at mid-week
that lumber was off $2 and $3 a
thousand both in California and
eastern markets.
The swift drop in plywood
prices was not expected to con
tinue, according to the digest.
Market sources reported that
warehouse inventories had shrunk
from a usual 60-day level to less
than a 45-day supply. The round
ing out of warehouse stocks was
.expected to hold prices up for a
while.

The fourteen, aged 77 to 95,

Mrs. Draheim said, "We could
keep them like you wouldn't keep

Defense Department Explains
Of Providing Hospital Care

ment VIP'S often take their ail
ments to military hospitals, but
this doesn't mean they get a free
ride at taxpayer expense.
The Defense Department ex
plained today, in reply to queries,
that Senators, Congressmen, Cab
inet members and other "very im
portant persons" are charged $37
a day for care in military hos
pitals.
This is a flat rate regardless
of tlie ailment whether a splinter
in the finger or a complicated
case requiring the most elaborate
treatment and attention. It covers
everything, including medicine
and drugs.
The President of the United
States does not fall into the VIP
classification in this resjiect. As
Commander in Chief of the armed
forces, he is regarded as being
on active military duty and the
only charge for him or a mem
ber of his family like any milit
ary officer is $1.75 a day. This
is primarily for food the patient
consumes.
Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy was
charged $1.75 a day for a total
of $12.23 for her recent week in
the Otis Air Force Base (Mass.)
hospital during which she gave
birth prematurely to the child
which died of a respiratory ail
ment. JFK Paid Hill
Th's was included in a total of
$174.25, which the White House
said Kennedy paid by personal
check to cover subsistence at the
hospital for his wife, her secre
taries. Secret Service agents and

OLCC Holds
To 21 Rule
PORTLAND (UPI) The Ore
gon Liquor Control Commission
stood fast Thursday on its rule
forbidding anyone under the age
of 21 tc sell alcoholic beverages.
Reuiesentatives of grocery
stores and of the clerks union had
petitioned the OI.CC to relax its
rule ant! permit those between the
ace of 18 and 21 to ring up sales
of beer and wine on cash regis
ters.
They said the rule made it dif
ficult for many of that age to get
jobs.
Chairman Hugh Kiikpatrick of
the OLCC said that "...over the
years various commissions have
not felt it would be in Hie puoiic
interest to relax the restrictions.
Sales to minors are the most pre
valent violations of tlie liquor
laws and permitting minors to sell
hecr and wine would undoubtedly
lead to more such violations."

Law Ii Vague
Defense Department officials ex-
plained that there is nothing in
the law that specifically authoriz
es the military services to provide
hospital care for prominent civil
ians.
The law provides that these
hospitals may provide care for
others outside the military serv
ices. This has been interpreted to
mean high officials under policies
which are similar in the Army,
.Navy and Air Force.
In addition to U. S. officials.
heads of governments from
friendly countries are sometimes
cared for at the $37 a day rate
under the same policy.
There is no hard and fast rule
on who is a VIP. In practice,
care is restricted to highest of
ficials in the government and
Congress, although any "emerg
ency case might be admitted.
Former President Dwight D.
Eisenhower received extended
care at Walter Reed Hospital
when he was in office and was
charged only tlie $1.75 subsistence
