Adams Name Surfaces in Dixon-Yates Probe
Democratic National Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell said he would not be surprised if the name of Sherman Adams surfaced in the Dixon-Yates voter contract negotiations inquiry. He cited evidence he had not yet verified and asserted Adams participated in some negotiations. Adams, a former New Hampshire governor and Eisenhower aide, could not be reached for comment. Mitchell urged public investigation to reveal all facts as a Senate House Atomic Energy Committee hearing on the contract, set for Sept. 2, was postponed by the Committee on Metals. The panel, asked by Mitchell and others to publish terms, said the Atomic Energy Commission was not ready to discuss details.
