REA Faces
Fund Shortage
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Rur
al electric cooperatives in Flo
rida, Georgia and South Carolina
face the threat of crippling loan
shortages that will hamstring ef
forts to continue meeting the
power needs of more than 2 mil
lion people, a spokesman for rur
al electric systems in this re
gion asserted recently.
The statement was made by
T. W. Hunter of Newberry, S.C.,
president of the National Rural
Electric Cooperative Association
(NRECA) and a representative for
the three states on the Associa
tion’s Legislative Committee.
“The NRECA annual loan fund
survey shows that rural electric
cooperatives in the three states
will apply for more than $73.4
million in REA loans during the
18-month period ending June 30
next year, but if Administration
proposals are adopted by Cong
ress, we stand to get only about
half of that amount at best,’’
Hunter asserted.
The rural electric cooperative
loan fund requirements for the
three states are; Florida $23,-
322,000, Georgia $24,942,000,
South Carolina $25,166,000.
Beta Club Hears
Georgia Students
At the Wednesday, April 10,
meeting of the Newton County
High School Beta Club, three girls
from the University of Georgia
presented the program. The girls
were Cathy Callaway, Cindy
Barnes and Ruth Whitlow. They
talked about the Gamma Beta
Phi Club at the university. They
also pointed out certain facts
about social life, fraternities,
sororities and campus life in
general. Their talk was very
interesting and informative.
Johnny Gregory opened the
meeting with prayer. President
John Lamar Callaway conducted
the business session. He said
that all dues must be paid im
mediately.
