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.
