the banker-power consultant to
get in touch with the Dixon
Yates group and have them re-
vamp an earlier proposal because
he thought the commission
could not consider a proposal
that was not firm as to capital
cost with cancellation provisions
that were not completely justifi-
able" A week later, the Dixon
Yates syndicate came up with
the contract arrangement that
was accepted by the Atomic
Commission.
/ Gen. Fields had advised Sem
iator Anderson in letter incor-
porating a copy of the chronol-
ogy that since neither Mr.. Wen-
zell nor Mr.. Miller had "partici-
pated in any degree whatever IN
the negotiations leading to the
present contract which developed
from the April 10 proposal from

were not included in accordance

follow of only including the prin-
cipals concerned in the matter,
in their chronology"

the chronology, also said he did
not believe the inclusion of the

persisted in this stand after the
Nichols instructions of April 8
were again called to his atten-
ltion, Senator O'Mahoney de-
clared heatedly. II don't under
stand how you can expect rea-
sonable men to believe what
you're saying" Mr.. Cook said
that William F. McCardless, as
sistant budget director, had sug-
gested the omission.
Mr.. Cook said that actually he
| had overlooked the April 3 memo
in preparing the chronology.
Mr.. Cook got in another brush
with the committee when he ad-
mitted going to the White House
I for four meetings on Dixon
Yates contract negotiations, but
couldn't remember with whom
he had talked.
Asking for time "to refresh
my memory" Mr.. Cook said,
however, that he had not seen
President Eisenhower on these
trips.
Mr.. Cook was questioned also
about a White House confer
ence involving representatives of

did was "tell us the problems
