Baker Jr. (R-Tenn.) said yesterday he would keep an "open mind" on whether Atomic Energy Commission diffusion plants at Oak gaseous Ridge and two other locations should be sold to private industry.

Baker's Democratic part, Sen. Albert Gore, earlier this week blasted the Nixon Administration's study of the possible sale, saying it "has the earmarks of the Dixon-Yates deal." A controversy flared during the Eisenhower Administration over a commission proposal to buy power for AEC plants from a private plant to be built in West Memphis, by the Dixon- Yates Utility combine. Baker disagreed with Gore, saying the parallel between the current study and Dixon- Yates "I'm not sure in my own mind whether operation of these plants ought to be a function enterprise or the Government, I am certainly not going to condemn the possible sale or condemn the retention of these plants until the study is completed." A review has continued since the Kennedy Administration on whether the plants, situated at Oak Ridge, Paducah, and Portsmouth, Ohio, should be sold, leased, or some other method of operation provided for, Baker said. parallel with DixonYates is very limited indeed." Baker said. "I know of my own knowledge that the AEC has been actively engaged in the study and the AEC will be considered in counsels that consider this problem further."

Albert Gore said Friday the United States has more than ample strike-back capability in the event of nuclear war and doesn't need the antiballistic missile system proposed by President Nixon.

He said it is one of two or three organizations in this part of the country committed to solutions of problems facing the people. He said present Highlander efforts are directed mainly at assisting the poor of Appalachia.

Highlander Supported "The real shame, the real I crime of the Highlander situation is not the fact that a number of people who should be ashamed of themselves have attacked Highlander so violently. The real crime is that you people who are concerned have nothing to do with Highlander. "You should look into Highlander and see what they're doing, and you'll find their activities are things with which you would like to be identified."

Howard H. Baker Jr.

"bit the bullet." This year, he dodged the bullet. Baker last year attracted a good deal of attention when he voted against approving a number of new Post Office buildings around the country, including one in Memphis, in his own state. "We must establish our priorities wisely, do first things first, and put off expenditures -however desirable and even necessary they may be--until we can honestly afford them," he said. So he cast his vote against building a juicy new building in his home state. Out of Town Yesterday, the Senate Public Works Committee, of which Baker is a member, OK'd another round new Post Offices around the country, including a $10.2 million one in Knoxville.

Baker spared himself another painful decision. He didn't vote. He was out of town. Under law, no further Senate action is required on the new Post Office authorizations. Only approval by the House Public Works Committee is now need- ed.

To Become Mostly Offices Work has been under way since last summer to find a site for the Knoxville structure. Postal officials said a 20-acre site near the interchange of I-40 and I-75 is being sought, but no decision has yet been made.

A spokesman for the FDA denied the timing of the announcement of rules was triggered by consumer advocate Ralph Nader's April 17 charge that elements in the food industry sell contaminated products to an unwary public.
