Meet
On Censure
Procedure
Flanders Will Try
To Keep Arguments
On Mccarthy Issue
By james Y. Newton

Senate leaders are meeting
today to lay plans for the spe-
cial session beginning Monday
which will consider recon-
mendations for censure Of
Senator Mccarthy.
Democratic Leader Lyndon
johnson, who returned last night
from his home in Texas, was to
meet with Senate Republican
Leader Knowland.
The two leaders will decide
the daily schedules for the spe-
cial session to start at noon
Monday, They were also ex-
pected to set a target date for
ending the session, which Sena-
tor Knowland said he expected
would last at least two weeks.
The two leaders also were ex-
pected to agree to confine the
session as closely as possible to
debate on the Mccarthy censure
issue. There was a possibility,
however. they would agree for
the Senate to act on non-con-
troversial appointments made by
President Eisenhower since the
close Of the regular session in
August.
Flanders Position.
A special Senate committee,
headed by Senator Watkins, Re-
publican, of Utah has recon-
mend censure of Senator Nc
Carthy on two counts.
Senator Flanders, Republican,
Of Vermont, author Of the CEN
sure resolution, said that he
would try to keep the Senate DIS
nearly as possible on the one
issue Of cenSure.
II am not going to crusade
in the special session." Senator
Flanders said. MY purpose of
bringing the activities, principles
and words of the Wisconsin Sem
ator before the Senate for serious
attention has been accom-
plished."
Senator Flanders said that he
expected that the Mccarthy
forces would make "every pos
sible attack on me and every one
connected with me. I will re-
fuse to pay attention no matter
how serious and scurrilous the
charges are" He added that
after the censure vote he. will
give whatever attention may be
necessary to any charges that
may have been made in the
course of the debate.
Expected Attacks.
"I took into account the pos
sibility of personal attack from
the moment ] made my first
speech on the issue Of the Sen
ator from Wisconsin March g.
Senator Flanders said. II have
not been caught by surprise.
accepted a calculated risk"
( Senator Flanders said that he
thought two weeks was a rea-
sonable length of time for the
session. But like other Senators,
he conceded the session might
continue indefinitely if debate
swings around to such contro-
versial issues as the Dixon Yates
power contract, the farm situa-
ton and unemployment.
Two Democratic Senators,
Monroney and Kerr of Okla
homa. said yesterday they, are
inclined to support the Watkins
committees recommendation to
censure Senator Mccarthy.

French-Gerrnan Row
On Saar Renewed as
Paris Bars Talks
Bonn Had Asked PurIey
Next Week; Adenuuer's
Coalition Split Over Pact
By the Associoted Press

PARIS, Nov. 6.-The French
German quarrel over the Saar
valleys coal and steel wealth
flared up again today as French
officials said there would be no
talks with West German leaders
on this question next week.
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's
government, under pressure
from it's own coalition parties.
said last night such talks might
be held in Bonn next week.
But the French made clear
today they had no plans to
launch talks so soon and in
dicated they would be delayed
until after Premier Mendes-
France returns from his visSs TO
the United States. This would
advance the date for the talks
into December.
Bar Notifications.
French officials said there was
no question of interpretations
or notifications of the Saar
agreement. They conceded
however, that some clauses OF
the accord, signed at the
eleventh hour of the big-scale
allied conferences here. were
drafted in general terms with the
details to be filled in later.
The principal open clauses
concerned Germany's future
economic relations with the
Saar, a request for American
and British guarantees for the
accord, and the Saar's future
relations with various interna-
tional organizations such as the
steel and coal community and
the Council of Europe.
These are to be worked out in
French and West German ne
gotiationS.
Hit by Bonn Parties.
The agreement as it stands
now would put the Saar under a
neutral commissioner named
by the new Western European
Union, and maintain the valleys
economic union with France, at
least until a final peace treaty
for all Germany.
Mr.. Adenauer's coalition part
ners-with the Free Democratic
Party in the vanguard-have as
sailed this as a virtual surrender
of the area which they regard al
part of Germany. Some West
German politicians have called
for new negotiations to redraft
the agreement. The French have
said, and repeated today, that the
accord must stand as it is OF
the French government will not
ratify the allied decisions on
West German rearmament and
entrance into the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO).

Top officials of the Atomic
Energy Commission said today
that they do not know the pre-
else origin of the Dixon Yates
power deal.
At a hearing marked by wran-
Cling the Congressional Joint
Committee on Atomic Energy
heard Maj. Gen. K. D. Nichols.
Acc general manager, testify
that he was pretty certain"
that no one in the commission
thought up the idea of contract
ing with the power combine to
furnish power to the Tennessee
Valley Authority to compensate
for IVA power going into atomic
installations.
He could not say who did, how
ever.
Acc Chairman Lewis L.
Strauss also disclaimed knowl-
edge of the authorship of the
proposed arrangement. 1t has
been brought out that the plan
started with a meeting in the
Budget Bureau last December at
which the question of bringing
private power into the iva area
was raised by Detroit Banker
Joseph M. Dodge, then budget
director.
Both Gen. Nichols and Admiral
Strauss were drawn into a warm
exchange with Rep. Holifield,
Democrat. of California, a leader
in the fight on the proposed con-
tract. Mr.. Holifield disrupted
the Acc officials contention that
the new power is intended as d.
replacement for power that the
commission is now getting from
two steam plants in the vicinity
of the Paducah, KY, atomic in
Stallation.
Area Is Big Supplier.
The Dixon Yates plan provides
for the construction of a steam
plant at West Memphis, Ark,
to generate power in the Mem
phis area for the IVA, which
is one of the big suppliers of
the atomic commission
Mr.. Holif1eld insisted that the
purported replacement" of
power Is a fiction" and that
the contemplated arrangement
will not release any of the pow
er that the commission is now
getting for Paducah and Oak
Ridge.
"This is a complete fiction
and you know it" said the CAL
ifornian. "It is not a felton,"
shot back Gen. Nichols.
"Are you going to release any
kilowatts in the Paducah-Joppa-
Shawnee area" the Californian
demanded. (There are generat-
ing plants at Joppa and Shaw
nee.)
II don't think you can answer
that" Gen. Nichols insisted, ex-
planning that the contemplated
arrangement was q common
practice.
Mr.. Holifield accused Gen.
Nichols Of taking refuge in
semantics" and when in response
to a question Admiral Strauss
said he was standing on Gen.
Nichols explanation, Mr.. Holi-
field said both commission off,
GERS were indulging in semantics.
That was promptly disputed
by the two.
Earlier Proposal Rejected.
The Dixon Yates arrange
ment, strongly backed by
President Eisenhower, was made
after the President had turned
down a IVA proposal to build a
steam plant at Fulton. Tenn,
to generate the additional
power needed in the area. IVA
