Senator Fulbright said he
thinks Mr.. Mitchell grossly over

The Presidents statement that
the books are open for inspec-

Deadlock in Making
As Mendes-Fr
Drafts edo Proposals
g. The As.oeiu.ed Press

BRUSSELS. Aug. 18.-Leaders
Of the six European Army ma
tons converged on the Belgian
capital today for crucial talks on
the French demands imperiling
the projected European Defense
Community (EDC).
From all sides opposition
mounted to French Premier Pr
ere Mendes-France's proposals
for major revisions in the EDO
treaty. Reports from Paris said,
however. that Mr.. Mendes-
France would tell his colleagues
at the foreign ministers CONFER
ence opening here tomorrow that
only his new European Army
plan could be approved by the
French National Assembly.
Mr.. Mendes-France arrived by
train from Paris and immedi-
ately arranged for a conference
with Belgian Foreign Minister
Paul-Henri Spaak. The Belgian

tempt to reconcile Mr.. Mendes-

British Move Revealed.
In this connection diplomatic
tnformants in London disclosed
that the British government had
sent a message to Mr.. Mendes-
France yesterday urging the
Franch premier to seek a COM
promise formula in Brussels.
Many observers doubted that
an acceptable formula could be
worked out for the six-nation
army. in which a rearmed West
Germany would pool her troops
with those of France. Italy. Bel
GUM the Netherlands and Lux
embourg.
United States officials in
Washington already had ex-
pressed fears that the long
nurtured edo plan. first proposed
in October, 1850, by Frances
then defense minister. Rene
Pleven. was doomed.
Other Five Nations Oppose.
So far the five other EDO
nations had given evidence of
nothing but opposition to the
French proposals. Critics con-
tended they robbed the army
plan Of much of its suprana-
tional aspect. All argued the
amendments would require new
parliamentary approval by the
four nations-all but Italy and
France-which have ratified the.
pact. The West Germans con-
sidered the proposals raised new
determinations against them.
The Dutch in a Foreign Office
statement earlier this week went
on record in opposition to Mr..
Mendes-France's demands. An
Italian Foreign Ministry source
IN Rome said Foreign Minister
Attilio Piccioni would reject the
proposals.
A member of the Belgian cab
met said after an EMERGENCY
meeting today his country could
accept some of Mr.. Mendes-
frances proposals, including
scaling down duration of the
treaty from so to 20 years.
There was no official state
uent from West &c, many and

certain to oppose the proposals
as given by Mr.. Mendes-France.

U. 5. Agencies Plan
To Publish Data on
NAPower Contract
BY Gornett D. Homer

The Atomic Energy Commits
sion and the Budget Bureau to-
day were preparing to publish
the record of how a controversial
power contract to the Dixon
Yates syndicate in the iva area
was arrived at. :
President Eisenhower, aston
ished that what he called an
innuendo about the deal by
Democratic National Committee
Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell
involved his golfing friend,
Bobby Jones. told reporters they
could get the complete record
on it.
Mr.. Mitchell said in Chicago
he is glad the President is ready
to disclose "the whole story be-
hind the Dixon-Yates deal"
The Democratic chairman had
charged Monday that the Presi-
dent issued a personal order for
award to the syndicate of a long,
term contract to sell power to the
Atomic Energy Commission in
the Tennessee Valley area with
out competitive bidding. He
mentioned the Presidents friend
ship with Bobby Jones, a direc-
tor of one of the companies
associated with the Dixon Yates
group.
Doubt Expressed.
The resulting Juror extended
to CapitoI Hill, where Democrats
as well as Republicans voiced
doubt that the Eisenhower-Jones
friendship had anything to do
with handling of the contract.
Gen. Eisenhower obviously was
prepared for a question about
the Mitchell statement at his
news conference yesterday after
noon.
When it came, he showed no
anger. Instead, he smiled rue
fully and rolled his eyes toward
the ceiling. But, by implication,
he limited at what he thought of
Mr.. Mitchell.
When he went into political
| life. the President said, he knew
that he would be subjected by
many type of strange characters
to many kinds of innuendo and
allegation.
Praises Bobby Jones.
But in this case, he added, he
is a little astonished that any
kind of such innuendo should
include a private citizen of the
character and standing of Bobby
Jones. He said he knows nc
gentleman of whose integrity and
probity he is more certain.
AS for his own actions In
approving the contract action
the President said he is not 60
ing to defend himself. But he
said the reporters could go to
the Acc and the Budget Bureau
and get the complete record
from the inception of the idea to
this very lninute-and that is all
he had to say about it.
Newsmen were told at the two
agencies that it would take a
few days to get the material
ready for publication, but that
the data probably would be
available by the end of the week
Mr.. Mitchell renewed his at
tack, propounding 10 questions
to which he said he hopes the
President will make sure that
the public gets the answers.
These questions concerned
whether the President ordered
the Acc to make the contract
against its better judgment,
whether there had been compel
tive bidding, whether appro-
