VanWinkle held that the asso ciation's financial setup 'must be approved by the commission be fore it can be granted a license to operate. Strickin said the', coop erative has - been operating for several years without a license and without water rights,'' for which it recently made applica tion. 7 , ' " .'. ' The main point at issue,' Strick lin said, is a loan granted by the federal f "rural electrification ad ministration which is secured . by a- mortgage Jon the cooperative's entire system. " The commission should have- ruled on J the mort gage oh the cooperative's ' genera tive facilities, Strickin said. ; Stricklin said the f next step would be to. ask the rural elec trification administration to ne gotiate a new loan, "secured by separate mortgages on the " gen erating and transmission facilities. This is the first case of this kind to reach the hydroelectric commission, Stricklin " said, and will set a precedent for other ru ral electrification districts. ' The cooperative had authority to give a mortgage on its trans mission system without approval of the commission, Stricklin said. 38 Are Named For Society.
