2-- San Mateo Times Tuesday, June 12, 1956 Big Plant for Carlos Planned GOP SENSES DEFEAT ON ISSUE OF FOREIGN AID struction of a $1,000,000 electrolytic plant here for the manufac- ture of liquid hydrogen for insula electronics firms 'has been announced by Rex Nicholson, president of the Liquid Carbonic corporation of Chicago. The San Carlos plant is part of a $5,000,000 construction program planned by the company in the 'bay area. A $4,000,000 liquid oxygen factory will be built in the east bay or San Francisco. Here Operation of- the San Carlos v. plant will be by the Stuart Oxygen company of San Francisco, a sidiary the carbonic corporation, H.

P. McKoon, plant manager for the Stuart company, said construction work is expected to be gin this week on the company three-acre site on Industrial road north of Bransten road. Liquid hydrogen will be manu factured in the local plant and piped directly to Litton Indus -tries. It also is planned to pipe 'the hydrogen'directly to the Eitel McCullough company plant when that building is constructed in the unincorporated area just north San Carlos. Other Peninsula clec tronics firms will be supplied hy drogen by large "tube-trailer trucks.

Used in Making Tubes 'Hydrogen is used by electron- firms during the manufacture of delicate 'electronic tubes. 'Construction of.the 160.by 80 tfoot San Carlos plant will be done-by the Tait company of San Francisco which also is constructing the new Dalmo-Victor company', building in Belmont. An operating crew of at least 12 persons will be employed at San Carlos, McKoon said. There also will be a sizeable office and administrative staff, he added. All precautions have been taken to insure, a safe manufacturing and transportation procedure the hydrogen, McKoon stated.

He said plans call for beginning operations in San Carlos by the latter part of Septem- A UNITED PRESS EXTRA By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Stall Correspondent WASHINGTON (UP)--The Eisenhower administrator is just about convinced it must take a icking in Congress on the issue of big time foreign aid spending. Both parties are dvided on the question. But the majority of senators and representatives are expected to support big reductions proposed foreign. military aid.

The House voted a $1.1 billion slice Monday. The House vote is accepted in politically sensitive Washington as notice that American citizens arc beginnng to questpn the use to which their tax money is being put. Politicians seeking to learn why military aid was relatively popular a year or so ago and today is severely reduced could come up with a couple of reasons, without much effort. Sustained High Taxation One is the sustained high taxation of the U.S. voter.

It is known around the world that the American citizen is a lucky devil with indoor plumbing and at least one automobile. Hot and cold running water and a Detroit heap, however, are not enough to' ease the pain of the tax bite. Taxes were high during the war. They eased off thereafter only to soar again in 1950 for Korean War rearmament. That was six years ago and the tax load is little diminished.

A tax cut right now would take a lot of steam out.of Bay wood OKs Resan the effort to reduce foreign aid spending. It would give a congressman running for re-election something to' say -folks back home 'who protested against the flow of money overseas. No tax cut is likely, The financially conservative atti tude toward a prospective Treasury surplus this year is. that it would be better to reduce thevpub- lic debt a little bit than to reduce taxes, which further would.cheap- en the long suffering dollar. It is worth only about 50 cents, as it is.

For another explanation of the voters' chill on foreign aid the inquiring politician might look overseas. There is a feeling, that some of the allies of the United States are somewhat less than doing their own part and are considerably less than stable. France, for example. From April, 1917, when the United States entered War and over the years France has cost the United States quite a lot of money without ever quite getting off the floor. Most recently, from Indochina to Algiers, the cost has been terrific' in one way or another.

The French people are in a tight spot. Their divisions, which should be an important part, of the western defense against Soviet Russian aggression are mostly engaged (Continued From Page 1) can-to get it started .1. The adjacent properties are affected, and the Downers-have indicated. they would be happy to have an apartment house go, on the site. All of 'Baywood is satisfied to get that corner plugged."

It has maintained a policy of encouraging underground installations, both OBader and Rose emphasized.

Silva went on to note, "I explained to Mr. Trout she couldn't be classed as a missing person at this 'time and that personally, only having been married once myself and still living in that happy state, I was afraid my own experience did not be a referee in this particular case. Further assuring Mr. Trout of my heartfelt sympathy and explaining to him that I felt for him, but just couldn't reach him, I suggested that he go home, get a good night's sleep and perhaps the wandering bride would c'orae home." 15 North San Mateo drive, sought by applicant Miniam L. represented by her husband, architect Fred Whittlesey, The feet, frontage.on San Mateo drive.
