TRANSFER CO. Pendleton, Oregon Phone CR 6 3111 She's helping her rural electric do an "impossible" job ! She doesn't mind reading her electric meter be cause ehe, with thousands of other people who live in this area, owns this rural electric system. This is just one way these owner-consumers cut costs to make possible modern, dependable electric service to widely scattered rural homes. Through cooperation, they're doing the job many considered impossible. Reading meters doesn't faze these do-it-yourself Americans. At the start of rural electrification, local citizens pitched in to sign up members and secure rights of way for power lines. They bor rowed money from the Rural Electrification Ad ministration to build their own electric system. Today these people are using ever-increasing amounts of electricity to live and farm better. And all over our country, user-owners continue to take part in the operation of their electric sys tems which now serve 17 million people. For example, they hold annual meetings, elect di rectors from their memberships to oversee their businesses. Working together, they are turning the "impossible" job of electrifying rural Amer ica into one of the greatest success stories of our day. Already they've repaid $11 i billion in principal and interest on $34 billion REA loans . . . further proof that rural electrification is one of the best investments our nation ever made. i ,i r.
