A better population balance would benefit both countryside and city. A full range of community facilities and services (water, sewage, schools, health and recreational facilities, job-creating in dustries) encourages more people to live and work in rural areas. Adequate, dependable electric power at reasonable cost is basic to community facilities and services. Rural electric system people are often leaders in community development. In the past 1 1 years, rural electric systems have helped start and expand about 5,000 new business and industrial enterprises in their areas, creating some 350,000 new jobs. TRUE right down the line. These facts, plus many more, add up to a POWERful countrywide group of individual systems with a common purpose . . . helping strengthen rural America.

In 1541 El Salvador became a part of the Captaincy General of Guatemala and remained under Spanish dom n a'nin through the next three cet tin ies. Following the unsuccessful uprisings led by the Salva dorean national hero. Padre Jose Matias Delgado, the Captaincy -General of Guate mala attained its independence Span n 1821. The country then joined the United Pro lines of Central America, becoming an independent re public in 1K4I. The following years brought many revolu tions. In 1950 the present constitution was adopted which provides for a democratic way of life. A unicameral Legisla tive Assembly and a President who is elected for a (i-year term form the governmental back Ixtne of the nation. El Salvador is the smallest, vet the most densely populated ill the Central American repub lics - more than 3.2 million persons of mixed Spanish and Indian blood. Its 160 miles of coastlines are entirely on the Pacific Ocean, making it the only Central American country with no access to the Atlantic seaboard. Despite its small size. El Salvador offers many contrasts in scenic beauty, with its volcanoes and volcanic lakes, fertile fields and gently sloping hills covered with coffee plan- H tat ions.
