we want to eat and enjoy even
meager security, the question to
ask every day is "What shall I do?"
and not "What shall we do?"
If "we" means dumping our prob- j

a solution of what ails us, as in-

nique for many years we have
created muddle and confusion from
which we can extricate ourselves
only by gointi back to iirst princi-

GREETINGS-
The percentage of farm homes in Texas receiving central station
electric service has increased from 2,3 per cent to 90 per cent during
the past 16 years, largely through the stimulation of the Rural
Electrification Administration (REA) program.
More than 282,000 rural families of Texas now enjoy the benefits
of electric lights and power through cooperatives which they themselves
own and operate.
Each of the 77 rural electric cooperatives in Texas is a free
and independent, tax-paying business enterprise, chartered under the
laws of the state of Texas, and owned and controlled by the farmers
and ranchers who receive service along its lines.
The availability of electricity has brought about a wholesome
revolution in farm methods, production and living standards; has
lightened the drudgery of farm tasks and increased farm output and
profits; has been instrumental in keeping young people on the land,
and has promoted the general welfare not only of rural people, but
of urban residents as well whose prosperity and well-being depends
upon a sound and prosperous agriculture.
THEREFORE I, as Governor of Texas, do hereby proclaim the week
of August 19th to 25th, Inclusive, as
RURAL ELECTRIFICATION WEEK
in Texas, and call upon all citizens
of the state to observe during this
week the splendid progress that has
been made in electrifying rural areas
during the past 16 years, and to
resolve anew that the program shall
continue to expand until every farm
family in the state shall enjoy the
blessings of electric lights and
power.
