ment for him.
He has appealed convictions for
assault and destruction of private
property in connection with the
housebreaking charge.

Gated temporary anti-freeze solu-

2-Cent Increase Due
In Butter Price Here;
Tires and TubesGo Up

District housewives today were
faced with another 2-cent rise in
butter prices. while advances in tire
and tube prices also were either IN
effect or expected shortly by dis
tributors here.
The butter increase went into
effect in the wholesale market here
Yesterday and this morning, sending
prices on top grades as high as "a
cents.
Wholesale prices averaged 78 to
81 cents, the higher figure being
charged for butter delivered since
Yesterdays two-cent increase on the
New York wholesale market.
New York Price Rises.
New York prices, which were 30
cents at the beginning of the week,
advanced yesterday to 80 cents.
Butter distributors here say they
generally follow the New York
trend.
Top grades of butter were as high
as 88 cents wholesale and 80 cents
retail in one large local distributor.
An A. & P. official in Baltimore
said that retail butter prices in that
section were advanced this morning
by cents, bringing them to 85 cents
for solid pounds and 81 cents for
quarters. He said the chain was
governed by recent advances in but
ter on the Chicago market.
Tire Prices Increased.
Meanwhile, distributors of Gen.
eral Tires here have announced an
increase in price schedules up to
71s per cent in the retail price of
passenger tires and tubes.
The change went into effect Mon
day, when the price of passenger
tires rose from Still to 1881
Small industrial tires are up 5 per
cent and an increase in the price of
truck tires was expected shortly.
The spokesman said that in
creases of between II to IS per cent
over the old level were expected by
January L.
Other major distributors of tires
reported that they expected similar
price increases in the future. A
survey of manufacturers conducted
recently by the Wall Street Journa
revealed an anticipated to 10 pei
cent price increase among most
manufacturers to offset costs o1
natural rubber, freight rates, Goa
and cotton prices and wage rates.

Veteran Awaiting Mental Care
Kept in Jail, DAV Head Says

said about lis veterans had been
hospitalized at st. Elizabeths, and
that about 100 still remain there.
Mr.. Golob said DAV has received
reports from various parts of the
country where mentally sick veter-
ans have been kept in prisons until
hospital beds could be found for
them. He would not identify the
locations.
The comments were made during
a discussion of the veterans hospital
program, which Mr.. Golob said was
wholly inadequate" as far as the
number of hospitals is concerned.
He stressed that DAV has no ar
gument with the quality Of med
ical service given veterans, but said
increased construction costs have
virtually stymied the VA hospital
program.
Mr.. Golob, who called the confer
ence to discuss DAV legislative pro-
grams, said Congress will be asked
to increase compensation to dis
abled veterans and give special al
lowances to their dependents.
He said he hoped the compensa-
ton increase might amount to 80
per cent to keep pace with cost OF
living increases.
Another keynote of the DAV leg
islative drive this year will be in
dorsement of the universal military
training plan approved by the House
