that Mr.. Mitchell would make
such d charge. It was designed
to defend the Administrations
decision on power, and also ex-
plain why the Dixon-Yates offer
was accepted instead Of one
from 4 group OF investment
bankers. attorneys and financial
consultants headed by Walter
Won Tresckow Of New York.
3 Reasons Cited.
It described the two proposals
in these words: "
1t fthe Won Tresckow offer)
was found unacceptable on three
main grounds that the Gov
eminent paid all the costs and
took all the risks while paying q
81 million fixed fee To the pro-
meters: that there was so salts
factory assurance Of proved
ability and experience either for
construction or management:
and that the costs were esti-
mated, as nearly as could be
determined. to be about the same
or possibly greater than the
Dixon-Y Yates proposal.
ION the other hand. the Mid
die South Southern proposal
(the Dixon Yates companiesl
was a firm offer with a stated
maximum capital cost and sub
stantial risk assumed by the con-
tractors rather than all by the
Government: was made by es-
tablished organizations wit h
recognized experience in con-
structing and operating steam
power plants: and contained
valuable safeguards for the Gov
eminent. !"
Taxes Involved.
According to its April "a mem
orandum furnished Gen. Eisen-
hover. the Budget Bureau esti-
mated that cost of the new plant
contemplated in the Dixon
Yates proposal would be in the
neighborhood Of Silt million. It
would be built in Arkansas.

Memphis. The annual cost to
the Acc, excluding taxes, would
be approximately $18.6 million,
compared with about $18 million
Acc would pay to the IVA If
power were provided at Paducah.
If the IVA were to build a
plant near Memphis, the Budget
Bureau advised the President,
annual cost to the Government
would be about 1858 million as
compared with $20.5 million for
the private companies proposal.
The Budget said the difference
would be caused by State and
local taxes. difference in inter-
est and other financing costs,
and operating and transmission
costs.
The Budget memorandum said
the utility offer would help
spread the risk from any cut
back in the atomic energy pro-
gram, which otherwise in 1857
will take an estimated % per
cent Of IVA power capacity.
Need For New Plants.
According to a covering state
ment released by the Budget
Bureau, the problem OF what to
do about increased power needs
in the IVA area arose originally
because iva said It would need
some more new steam plants by
1855.
This the administration was
not ready to recommend" the
bureau said. feeling that all
phases Of the problem should be

Dom Di Maggie Sees Sox
On Top in a Few Years

NEW HAVEN, Oct. IA R.-
Dom DiMaggio says a first-place
finish in the American League
race can happen in a few
years" for the Red Sox with
Pinky Higgins as manager.
DiMaggio, known as the
Little Professor" when he was
star center-f fielder for the Sox,
voiced his opinion about Higgins,
the new manager, and other Sox
affairs while on a business trip.
This was his reply when asked
about the teams chances OF
winning the pennant:
"It may not happen next year
that would be asking a lot
but with the group of young
sters there now whom Higgins
managed in the minors, it can
happen in a few years."
DiMaggio said he believed Lou
Boudreau was replaced by Hig-
gins as manager because per-
sonality differences between Ted
Williams and Boudreau led 70
strained player-manager rela-
tions on the club.
He said, too, Boudreau's many
lineup changes resulted in "too
much confusion and lack of con-
fidence" and gave the players
"a feeling of insecurity" DiMag-
gio played two seasons under
