Talk:Hanford, Washington

message: There really used to be a town with this name, according to the Hanford Site article, so I figure that instead of a disambiguation page, we should just have a stub about the town.  It's that, or a redirect to Hanford site.  I prefer the stub, in case someone comes along with more information. Isomorphic 04:55, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)

message: During the condemnation proceedings for the lands to be controlled by the Manhattan Project in the Hanford community area (several counties) the federal government's land aquisitioning expert had a meeting with the then Director of The Westinghouse Corporation and who was also the Director of WIDCo (aka: W.I.D.Co., WIDCO, WIDCo. and The Washington Irrigation and Development Company). During the proceeding, the Director stated, "You will bankrupt us," and, "We will not be a party to conspiracies to commit war crimes." The expert then shot the Director at the proposed facility in Benton County. Documents belonging to the companies have recently been surfacing. Westinghouse and WIDCo. were active in a joint venture in the area at the time (about 1943).
WIDCo. was sent home to a "Parent" company and was traded thousands of acres of real estate for its stolen interests. WIDCo. set up a holding company by the name of Pentzer Corporation (which was retroactively incorporated in the German language in about 1890 in the State of Washington) and thereby transferred 100% of its properties, including a 52-54% interest in The Washington Water Power Company, to Pentzer Corporation. The Pentzer Corporation (wholly owned by WIDCo. and any interests vested or unvested of Westinghouse) was then "Given" to The Washington Water Power Company
under contract of perpetual continuation of both WIDCo. and Pentzer Corporation.
WIDCo. remained oprerative in helping to establish the Kaiser Aluminum smelting facility in Spokane, WA by establishing a very lucrative electrical contract of 1 to 3 1/3 cents over the cost of production toward the Kaiser company. This contract remained in effect until President and CEO Paul A. Redmond of The Washington Water Power Company came to notice the contract (for renewal?); at which time he became very irritated and incensed and questioned why Kaiser should have such a contract. Since that time, Kaiser has gone bankrupt.
One last thing: WIDCo. was asked to indemnify the United States Government in the matter. To this day, we have been trying to keep the government from committing its crimes, to no avail. 216.215.40.65 (talk) 01:36, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
