<br />Rural Elec:trics Render
<br />Unique Public Services
<br />Few organh:atlons, public or private, contribute 80 m.uch to oom~unJ:ty
<br />Welfare and development as the rural .,Ieddc systems.
<br />DArkness Is a thing of the past ou all but five or six. percent 01 the
<br />natJon's tams.
<br />TJi16 aoblevfll'l\ent Is - best ~(!llS1.Il'e6 In the pleaSUNlIil 'ot llvlng that only
<br />eJeddclty o.w.n Inlng, In the hours of labor saved by' the "invifdble htred hand,"
<br />ThIs record -of, rural electrIcity has been made -by farmers themselves
<br />through thell' CQ.op rural eleetrlcs. Together tl\ese ftumera borrowed money
<br />mm the federal government. They planned, built ,and are no\V managing,
<br />su~~n; :~~. :~::;Il~~~~~lh~:?t ~ton;~I~ere. Three nnheralcled
<br />and Wlsung examples have lust COme f:o us. ;!!
<br />. At Nucla the San Miguel Power Asso~t1ori ~a's just aided a commu.
<br />nltyetloct to obtain an ambulance for the people_~l.the San Miguel basin. The
<br />cooperativllc loaned Its mailing list and 'blllJng services to the group trying to
<br />buy an 8JDbulance and finance its operation. Jndividuals ~liclted were per-
<br />mitted to add the $4 payrpent for the ambulance fund drive to their light bill
<br />At this time, the quota is all 'but completed,
<br />. 'At :l)unmgo Illore than a year ago, the La Plata Electric Assoclation
<br />Joined In a move to 'give th_Rt oommwrly television reception. Work Is. now
<br />underway, through the efforts of the cooperative, to ~tend It to other parIa
<br />01 tlIat mountaJnou8 area.
<br />. Currently the Emplre Electric Association 'at-'Cortez Is capping Its
<br />eHorts to get television to people In Its area.
<br />While It happens that ~hese: examples come from an unusual group of
<br />cooperatlves In southwestern Colorado, the story~in one fonn qr another-
<br />2s repeated In every other one of the 23 rural electric cooperatives serving
<br />more than 50,000 rural people In Colorado.
<br />People evel'YWbere should remember the grand role 01 service these
<br />ClOOpe;rAf,lves perform because every so often ruml eJectrlcs ge$ a pubUc
<br />kfdrtngaround,
<br />U the day ever comes when they are wiped out (and some people would
<br />like to see just that), Colorado wJIl be a. sorrIer place to live.
