Probers press to delay Dixon Yates deal again
Senate investigators pressed the AEC to suspend the Dixon Yates power contract as they widen probes into the deal. Senators Langer and Kefauver urged extra testimony from AEC Chairman Strauss and Budget Director Hughes, amid charges of unearned dividends and dual books at Mississippi Power Light and Arkansas Power Light. Witnesses testified of two-book accounting and rising rates, with Middle South Utilities linked to the disputed terms.
