The demand for electric power is booming. But the money to buy and install the equipment and lines that will be needed to help meet that de mand is lacking. And when 20,000,000 people served by rural electrics are caught in a squeeze, the whole nation is pinched. Within the next 15 years our country will need a total electric power system four times as big as the one we now have. Rural electric co operatives and other consumer-owned systems, which serve in 2700 of the nation's 3100 counties, will have to invest more than nine billion dollars asm 'Serving Morrow, Wheeler HEPPWEH GAZETTE-TIMES.
