Cow Palace to host 1964 Republican National Convention
New York AP reports the Cow Palace in San Mateo County seven miles southeast of San Francisco will host the 1964 Republican National Convention. San Francisco will pay $650,000 for the venue and hotel arrangements with extra fringe benefits. The city estimates the convention could boost economy by 5 to 36 million and attract about 30,000 visitors, with 26,000 hotel rooms reserved. The GOP pays $1,000 daily rent to the California Department of General Services and provides a $45,000 guarantee for bills and contingencies. The WPA built the facility in 1941 and the project, named Not A Live Stock Exposition, is to operate under stated terms.
