Brookngs OAK. October 4, 1882 Eisenhower said,
The Republican party pledged to sustain 900 parity price
supports pledged than thatto help the farm
obtain his full parity 1000 of parity, with the guaranty
in the price supports of 1890"
At Fargo NJ Oak. the day he said I'VE accused

WASHINGTON. D. C.-(CNS)--
To keep from spending 800 million
for : governmenE-owned power plant,
President Eisenhower ordered Atomic
Energy Commission 70 get power
from TWO private utilities at rates
that viii cost the government $40
million extra in the next 25 years.
The President told Acc June IL
TO sign q 25-year contract with
Middle South Utilities and South
ern Company for 10000 kilowatts
OF power. The same day, Acc of
ficials told the Senate-House atom
ic energy committee that power at
the conpanies' rates would cost
Acc S5.6 million more a year than
If IL got its power from Tennessee
Valley Authority.
Eisenhower pointed out that the
25-year contract would mean IVA
wouldn't need q S100-million steam
plant a. Fulton, Tenn. With that
plant, IVA could firm up its hydro
power and meet ACC needs for 600,-
coo kilowatts. But in % years, Acc

would cost $50 million extra year.
Later he raised this to $5.6 million.

Carr Says Stevens
Stopped Exposure
Of Red -Clearers

WASHINGTON, Francis P.
Carr testified Tuesday II don't
think at this time the Army is
coddling Communists" But he
said he thinks Secretary Stevens
and Army Counselor John C. Ad-
ans event to great lengths to pre-
vent exposure" Of persons who
cleared Communists in loyalty in
vestigations.
Carr, staff director for Sen. Nc
Carthy's investigations subcom-
mittee, made the statements in an
exchange with Army Counsel JO-
seph N. Welch in the Gath day Of
the McCarthy-Army hearings.
Carr had agreed with Welch
that McCarthy's proposal to call
Army Loyalty Board members be-
fore him was one Of the main
factors in bringing on the "colli-
sion'' between Army officials and
the senator.
Welch suggested there is a
grave legal issue as to whether the
Mccarthy subcommittee could re-
quire testimony from Army 10y
atty Board members about cases
they had handled. He said "hon-
estly patriotic" persons could take
the view it would be ''pretty awk-
ward to call up the judge and say
how com you decided the way you
did,
Carr said: "It may be little
awkward, but I can't see if they
were doing their job and doing it
right they would have anything
to fear"
Sen. Dirksen GRID commented
it is the old issue of separation Of
powers between the executive and
legislative branches of govern
ment.
Dirksen said the issue will have
to be settled some day, including
the question Of whether a con-
gressional committee can question
members of loyalty boards.
