TRUE

Seventy per cent of America's population
live on two per cent of the land.
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.
Support rural electrification; write your Con
gressman and Senators, pointing out why an
effective rural electrification program is essential to
a strong rural America.
And come see us for more information and
material about rural electric systems and the deepen
ing relationship between rural and urban America.
