power to the Acc at Paducah.
While this idea was under
study, Admiral Strauss conttin-
ued, Edgar H. Dixon, president
of Middle South Utilities, ad-
vised the Acc that he had al
ready made a proposal to the
TVA to furnish power for deliv-
cry IN the Memphis area.
A little late, he continued
January 4-the then acting
budget director. Mr.. Hughes,
wrote the Acc indicating that
it would be helpful if the COM
mission would proceed with ne
gotiations with a view to reach
ing a firm agreement with pri-
vate interests to supply an addi-
tional 100000 to 100000 kilo-
watts of generating capacity not
later tina nthe fall OF 1857"
Ten days later, he continued,
there was a further meeting
with budget officials at which
Maj. Gen. K. D. Nichols, general
manager of Acc, warned that
if the commission purchased
more power from private utilities
in lieu of IVA power presently
under firm contract. it could cost
the Acc more per kilowatt and
would not be as certain a supply"
Gen. Nichols, who also was
called as a witness in today'S
hearing, was quoted as explain
ing that Electric Energy, Inc,
was not eager to enter into such
a contract and suggested it might
be better for either Memphis or
the iva to make q power con-
tract with private utilities.

Neuberger's Surge Noses Out,
Senator Gordon in Oregon
ZAP Wirephcto.

Mr.. Neuberger's election
brought the number of Demo-
Gratis in the next Senate to 48,
ana Oregon's Senator Wayne
Morse, Independent, has prom
ised to vote with the Democrats
as the 49th and deciding vote in
organizing the chamber.
Mr.. Neuberger, who cam
paigned against what he said
were the "give-away" policies of
Senator Gordon and the Eisen-
hover administration, drew much
of his strength from populous
Multnomah County (Portland)
where the Democrats held a de-
cisive lead in registration.
Senator Gordon. a supporter of
the Eisenhower administrations
partnership" program for hy-
dro electric development of the
Pacific Northwest, was stronger
in upstate areas: Republicans
held a 2,0O0-lead in registration
in the State.
In the voting, 74.2 per cent
of Multnomah County turned
out, while only 67.7 per cent
of the upstate voters went to the
polls.
Results of upstate voting were
earlier in coming in and it ap-
peared early yesterday that Sem
ator Gordon had a comfortable
margin. But in the afternoon

the reported cost cannot be the
deciding factor"
/ Without giving his own esti-
mate as to the extra expense, the
budget director said about 20 per
cent of the differential results
from the fact that the private
utility would have to pay State
and local taxes and a higher in
tereSt rate on borrowed money.
The prepared statement which
Mr.. Strauss presented as the
| hearing opened was largely a
review of data surrounding the
contract which was made public
earlier.
Defends Arrangement.
Mr.. Strauss, in defending the
arrangement, set up Is points
on which he said it would re-
dound to the benefit Of the Gov
ernment.
Then in brief summation he
sought to answer charges that
have been raised against it by
saying, 1.-THE following refer to
what it (the contract) is not:
First, it is not a guarantee
of nine per cent on capital to
private interests.
Second, it is not a contract
negotiated with personal friends,
or other than at arms length by
those who have represented the
Government.
Third, it is not a contract
which results in the acquisition
OF power at a rate out of line
with the experience of the COM
mission which is a very large
purchaser of power"
Cite Increased Cost.
/ Foes of the contract have
charged that the power it would
provide would cost the Govern
ment anywhre from $3.6 mil
lion to $5.5 million more an
nually than If it was furnished
by a plant the IVA wanted
to construct at Fulton, Tenn,
north of Memphis.
The DiXon-Yates syndicate is
proposing to build a $107.5 mil
lion steam plant at West Men,
phis, Ark, across the MISSISSIPPI
pc from Memphis and deliver the
power to a IVA connection in
midstream.
n reviewing the negotiations
which led up to the Dixon
Yates arrangement, Mr.. Strauss
recalled that the Acc already
has negotiated for power from
private concerns at the Paducah
installation and another farther
up the Ohio River in Ohio.
Done Under Democrats.
This was done under the
Democratic administration, he
said.
The Acc head told the Joint
Committee that the genesis of
the Dixon-Yates contract was
meeting at the Budget Bureau
last December 2 with the then
Director Joseph M. Dodge, who
asked if it would be feasible to
have private industry bring in
generating capacity to replace
that being furnished to Acc
installations by the. IVA.
1t has been brought out earlier
that both private industry and
Government would need more
power in the iva area in the
next two or three years.

Benefits ile People.
Strauss Declares
By Joseph A. Fox

Lewis L. Strauss, chairman of
The Atomic Energy Commission,
today declared that the proposed
Dixon-Y Yates power contract is
"in the interest of all the people. y
Mr.. Strauss statement was made
before a congressional hearing
to discuss what he characterized
as "the misunderstanding and
Misrepresentation" that have
been made concerning the Bit
terly disputed contract.
Budget Director Rowland r.
Hughes, who had a major role
in the contract negotiations, told
the Joint Committee on Atomic
Energy, that the contract is an
entirely fair" business transac-
ton.
Splendid Example.
The committee is holding open
hearings on the question of
whether to waive the require
ment that the contract lay be-
fore a session of Congress for
80 days. If the waiver is ap-
proved the contract will be
signed without further delay.
Splendid Example.
Mr.. Hughes told the commit
tee, meeting in the old Supreme
Court chamber of the CapitT
that the contract is "a splendid
example of the working of the
free enterprise system"
Under the contract the Dixon
Yates syndicate would furnish
power to the iva in the Mem
phis area to release IVA power
for the commissions installation
at Paducah. KY, 200 miles away.
The contract, ordered by
President Eisenhower, has been
assailed by advocates of public
power as an entering wedge to
destroy the IVA.
Comedies Cost Is High.
Conceding that "it has been
said the power will cost more
than if IVA itself supplied the
electricity" Mr.. Hughes said

New York Launches
Sweeping Inquiry Of
Voie-Fraud Reports
BY The Assoeiosed Press

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. A.
New York State Attorney Gen.
eral Nathaniel Goldstein today
launched a sweeping Statewide
investigation Of reported voting
frauds in Tuesdays guberna-
torial election, as Averell Harri-
mans fragile margin of victory
dipped and bobbed with un-
official recanvass reports.
A vote check in Nassau County
yesterday gave the Democratic
Liberal nominee 4.319 more votes,
but a similar re-examination in
0nondaga County netted 1,493
more for Senator Irving M. Ives,
the Republican hopeful.
With all the States 10,436 dis
tricts reported, the unofficial
total was 2,554,185 for Mr.. Harri-
man and 2,544,528 for Senator
Ives-a 9.657 edge for the former
New Deal-Fair Deal diplomat.
The Hartman total included
26l,266 Liberal Party votes.
Recanvass Is Started.
Republicans are pinning their
hopes of upsetting Mr.. Harri-
mans hairbreadth election on
the official recanvass. The re-
canvass began today in some
upstate localities and will start
Tuesday in New York City.
Election boards must make
their final reports by Novem-
ber 27.
AS Republican forces waited
tensely for the first recanvass
returns. Mr.. Goldstein's investi-
gators moved to subpoena voting
books and records in districts
where the alleged frauds oc-
Cured.
William B. Herlands, State
commissioner of investigation,
was assisting Mr.. Geldstein's
Elections Frauds Bureau in the
probe.
The States attorney general
ordered the investigation last
night after, he said, his Office
has received complaints of
alleged fraudulent registrations
and other irregularities.
Dewey Order Attacked.
Meanwhile, Richard H. Balch,
the Democratic State chairman,
claimed that an order by Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey that law en-
forcement agencies guard voting
machines was being "abused in
many upstate counties" by
sheriffs and police.
Mr.. Balch said last night in
New York City that Republican
law enforcement officials in War;
.ren County and in New Rochelle
shad taken over the machines or
had attempted to do so.
ss He called on Gov. Dewey to
s.furnish full and adequate pro-
section" to bipartisan election
boards $50 as to assure the ma
chimes will be fully safeguarded. ;"

Richardson School
TO GET Needed Space
In Housing Project

District recreation and public
housing officials are teaming up
to provide sorely NEEDED class
room space for one of the city's
most congested school areas.
The area. near East Capitol
street and the District line, now
is served only by Richardson
school, at Fifty-third and Blaine
streets NE. A new school is
under construction, but will not
be ready until next April.
Meanwhile, opening of the Ma
tional Capital Housing Author
ity's East Capitol Street Dwell
ings this summer added more
school children. The result is
part-time schedules and grave
overcrowding at Richardson.
Yesterday. however, the NCHA
authorized an agreement to be
made with school and recreation
officials to permit use of a COM
munity recreation building in the
public housing development for
emergency classrooms.
Space for 160 Children.
James Ring, NCHA executive
director, said the temporary
school space will provide for
about 160 children. After school
hours, the building will be used
for recreation purposes.
The idea for the emergency
use was initiated by the NCHA.
I'VE had heard reports of
needs of that area" Mr.. Ring
said, land of the grave over
crowding. Walter E. Washington
ian aide to Mr.. Ring) got the
idea and conferred with school
and recreation officials about it,"
The community building is
near Sixty-f1rst and East Capitol
streets. The agency constructs
such buildings as parts of public
housing projects when it is evi-
dent the community lacks rec
reation facilities.
Awaits Final Arrangements.
c. Melvin Sharpe, Board of
Education chairman and a board
member of NCHA, strongly COM
mended the move yesterday. Of
f1cials said the buildings new
use is expected to start as soon
as final arrangements are made.
In other moves, the agency:
l. Formally approved a move
that paves the way for a public
housing project in Southwest
Washington, just south of the
so-called Area B redevelopment
project. The action is a tech
nical one that backs up an
earlier decision.
