E. D. Bishop Returned Last
Week From Regional
Planning Conference In
Memphis; Sees The
Need
Last week E. D. Bishop, superintendent
of the Brunswick Electric
Membership Corporation, was
in Memphis, attending a regional
planning conference for Southern
farmers. Convinced that there is
a big role for the farmer to play
in our National crisis, the REA
executive prepared a letter to users
in this area. We were impressed
by the sincerity of his appeal
for full cooperation, and we
are reproducing his message:
"The U. S. Department of Agriculture
has set up the goals for
farm production and food crops
for 1943. These goals will soon be
presented to you by your county
agent and committeemen. j
"Our government is asking us
to produce the necessary crops to
provide food and oils for our armed
forces and that of the United
Nations, as well as for home consumption.
"This is our golden opportunity
that we as farmers may take our
place along with our boys in the
armed forces of our country to
back them up in our fight to
maintain Liberty and freedom..
"We. may quibble and shirk and
try to dodge some part of the
program because it may interfere
with our own plans, but if we
shirk our duty your son, or your
neighbor's son, may say to you,
"What's The Matter, Dad, or Bill,
Can't You Take It?"
"Let us accept this privilege to
serve and go about our daily tasks
with hearts" warmed with the
determination to do our utmost to
meet these goals, and when the
boys come home we can meet
them with a proud satisfaction
that our own job has been well
done."
