Senators I Accuse Union Leaders of
Conspiracy' to (Control Votes
Since the beginning of the Ko

GOP
i
By JACK BELL ,
WASHINGTON Republicans
were circulating Monday a report
accusing union labor leaders of
Using "violence and coercion" in
a "conspiracy of national propor
tions" aimed at controlling 1956
election results.
The report, prepared by chair
state chairmen in a recent cam
paign school.
It got a mixed reception there.
Indicating a division of thought
among Republican leaders as to
whether their party should make
and open fight against union
leaders. -
Circulation of the report among
party workers, however, was in
terpreted as indicating a majority
view that there is little chance
of winning support, of the union
leaders for Republican candidates.
Gold water made it clear in his
report that the GOP will bid for
backing from union members while
attacking their leaders. He said
independent studies show 40 per
cent of union members are repub
licans. He complained these rank and
file Republicans are being forced,
in order to hold their jobs, to
contribute to political funds used
for the Democrats.
Political "Bess"
"The union of the AFL and CIO
will put the full political machin
ery of this two organizations in
one man's hands in 1956." he said.
"A monthly deduction of only
one cent from each of the mem
bers would put in the hands of this
man $1,800,000 a year for political
man Goldwater (Ariz) of the Re
publican senatorial committee, said
organized labor leaders are pre
paring for "massive use of polit
ical slush funds on a nation-wide
scale."
It said "The use of violence and
coercion by union leaders . . . has
now been transferred from the area
of industrial disputes and brought
boldly into purely political areas-..
- The report charged that there
have been "increasingly ruthless
and successful efforts of certain
elements in the leadership of the
labor unions to take over and
control the Democratic party."
It concluded that n this con
spiracy is permitted to develop
unhindered and without a fight,
the Republican party shall de
serve the oblivion it will surely
get."
The report first was made secret
ly by Goldwater ; to Republican
purposes. And we know the politi
cal assessment is far higher than
this. - .

Stanford Developing
Park' on
Land of Its Founder
Industry
. By LEIF ERICKSON
PALO ALTO, Calif. W Stan
ford University is developing an
industry park on the blue-chip land
of "the farm" of its founder. Sen.
Leland Stanford. The university
has a rather special selling pitch.
It's a neighborhood of scientific
brains.
The 225-acre industry park is the
first phase in a "big-time land de
velopment amid the booming sub
urban expansion on the San Fran
Cisco peninsula.
A 15-million dollar 50-store shop
ping center is near completion
with top San Francisco merchan
dising names represented. :
Residential Areas
Two residence areas for homes
in the $25,000 to $40,000 bracket
have been opened. A tract for pro
fessional and administrative office 1
buildings is planned. - ,
But the beginning was the
unique neighborhood of scientific
brains for industry.
General Electric has bought in
with a $350,000 microwave, tube
laboratory. Admiral Corp. has
started construction of a $175,000
electronics lab. Neighbors of GE
and Admiral across Hansen Way
are Varian Associates in their $1,
000.000 plant and laboratory The
Varian brothers Russell H. and
Sigurd F. were the first to settle
on a 17-acre site in the neighbor
hood of brains.
dues, four million dollars of that
money must come from Republi
can union members.
"Geee Squads"
Goldwater , charged there had
been "calculated, use of violence"
through ( "CIO goon squads" in
what be said had been successful
efforts . of union leaders to win
control of the Democratic organi
zation in Michigan in 1950. t
Declaring the Michigan situation
was "by no means unique, he
added: V- ! .
i "This combination' of political
violence and massive ' political
funds, . previously ' unheard ' of in
size, constitutes a real and present
danger to the traditional political
institutions of our country. '
"I believe it is the duty and the
responsibility of the Republican
party, to make known the facts of
this situation to the public."

Mother Tells
Of Finding Son
Dead at Flat
SEATTLE tft Homicide Capt.
Charles A. Rouse said Monday he
was told by Mrs. Alice Peters, 29,
in a recorded interview that she
found her small son dead in her
apartment last Wednesday and
placed the body in a grassy vacant
lot. ;
. Two young boys playing in the
area found the body of 2-year-old
Donald Hubert Peters Sunday aft
ernoon. ..-.
The father. Alphonse Peters, is
a logger in the Douglas, B. C,
area. Mrs. f eters told Kousetnree
other children are with the father.
Rouse quoted her as saying she
returned from her work in a tavern
to find two of the kitchen stove
.burners turned on. "I had forgot to
put up the ironing board so he
couldn't get. into the kitchen. I
found Donnie. I didn't know what
to do. I aiidn't tell anyone. I
drank."
She told the captain she picked
up the body and Carried it in her
arms to the vacant plot and laid it
in the tall grass.
She said she would stay with the
child aR day and put him to bed
before she leftjor her barmaid
job at night - -,
'He kissed me every night and
every morning."
- She also said she had borrowed
$50 recently to go to Canada for
the child after her estranged hus
band had written that he intended
to give him away. ';
Egypt Agrees
To New Law
CAIRO, Egypt t Egypt agreed
Monday to abide by a new all-Arab
' law passed by the Arab League in
Cairo Oct 15 to tighten the econo
mic boycott of Israel.
The boycott has been supervised
by a regional boycott office since
1952. The new law, to be supervis
ed by the same organization,
places on a black list any concern
found-Healing with Israel and in
flicts heavy penalties on persons
violating its provisions. It also re
wards informers whose information
may lead to seizure of goods on
.the way to Israel. . :
Here they have$ worked out in
dustrial applications of nuclear
magnetic . resonance, a discovery
which won Dr. Felix Bloch, Stan
ford physicist, a 1952 Nobel prize
Oil Search
The V a r i a a s have applied
Bloch s discovery principles to
plane-carried magnetometers for
aerial exploration for oil and min
erals.
The engineering and physics fac
ulties at Stanford are the real cen
ter not only for the industry park
on Stanford land but "also for
community ot tne electronics in
dustry clustering along 40 miles of
El Camino Real from San Bruno
to Mountain View.
The industry name for El Ca
mino is Electronics Avenue.
Many firms on the avenue are
headed by men who were students
at Stanford under Dr. Frederick E
Terman, now provost and engin
eering dean, and the late Dr. Wil
liam W. Hansen, physicist founder
of the school's microwave labora
tory.
William R. Hewlett and David
Packard, two former Stanford en
gineering students, have leased 20
acres in the industry - park for
their Hewlett-Packard Co. Their
business of making electronics lab
oratory testing equipment grew
out of a ' master's thesis assign
ment.
Book Firms
But you don't really have to be
in the electronics industry to get
into Stanford's industry park..
Two book firms Houghton-Mifflin
Co. and Scott-Foresman Co.
have established regional head
quarters there. -
Eastman Kodak abandoned op
tions on two other bay area sites
in a last minute switch to build its
new million dollar color film pro
cessing lab in the industry park.
Under terms of Senator Stan
ford's original 1885 gift, none of
the 99,000 acres of "the farm" ever
can be sold. In the master devel
opment plan 3,820 acres are set
aside permanently for campus to
preserve a rural and cultural set
ting for the school.
All the 5,000 remaining acres
must be developed on a long term
leasing basis.
Zone Standards
By retaining land ownership,
Stanford's trustees can impose
zoning standards and controls far
more strictly than any city coun
cil subject to community political
pressures.
The industry park's standards
are high. No noise, no smoke, no
stacks, no odors, and only discreet
identifying signs. No lease is final
until completed architect's plans
are approved with adequate park
ing areas and acceptable land
scaping. "If you're as tough on everyone
as you've been with us," said East
man Kodak, "we'll be happy."
Expansion of the Stanford elec
tronics research laboratory is be
ing financed by gifts from alum
ni wnose Dusmess success grew.
from Stanford s shaping of their
scientific brains.
Working Center '
he growing laboratory is the
working center of an honors co
operative program, established
last year, whereby participating
firms can recruit top engineering
students. The students can earn
full pay at industry jobs while
they work at Stanford for masters
degrees.
The competition for young elec
tronics engineers is keener and
tougher than the scrambling for T-
quarterbacks and, titanic tackles.
New growth for the school's in
dustry park is generating in the
class room and laboratory.
The essential raw material is
top quality engineering minds.
The men with these minds like
living and working in the neigh
boring of scientific brains.
