The stormy Senate investiga.
ton Of the huge Tx warplanC
contract Is to reach its climax
in hearings scheduled to re-
sumo November 10.
The Senate Investigations
Subcommittee is seeking to de-
Itermine whether favoritism was
involved when the Tx con-
tract-potentially the mos
costly in Pentagon history
was awarded last December to
the high bidder, the General
Dynamics' Corp. Of Forth
Worth, Tex.
Evaluations by the uniformed
military had rated a rival de-
sign by the Boeing Co. Of Sc
attic, Wash. as promising q
better plane at less cost.

has predicted it viii be devel-
oped and mass-produced for
the Air Force and Navy as the
worlds best fighter bomber at
a cost Of more than IS billion.
Some estimates by subcommit-
tee members have run to ap-
.proximately $40 billion.

that the military civilizations

their own Judgment was that

The hearings will resume
against the backdrop Of a

Secretary Zuckert swore the
memo is inaccurate. He said
he was not at the White House
meeting to hear what Mr..
Mcnamara had reported to Mr..
Kennedy; that neither Secre-
tary Mcnamara nor Mr.. Gil
patric ever told him Of making

sion. Mr.. Zuckert said the
memo was typed from short

the conference, and he believed
the statement had got into the
memo because Of "the claimed

Chairman Mcclellan, Demo-

be major witnesses in the new

both men about the memo,
