Dixon-Yates contract sparks TVA power clash
James Marlow outlines the Dixon-Yates agreement as a battle over public versus private power. The plan would let a private utility fund a West Memphis plant to supply TVA with power for atomic-energy needs, with the government paying long term costs. Critics like Gordon Clapp say it raises TVA costs and undermines the yardstick role of the TVA.
