and J. C. Brown of Raleigh, editor of the Tarheel Electric Membership
Association's Carolina Fanner magazine at Tri-County's minuteman
meeting last Friday night. Ms- Outlaw presided over the meeting and
J. C. Brown was guest Jpeake . Other speakers were Herbert Hulse,
attorney for the corporation, and John Jcershaw, General manager. The
minutemen are co-op members and other individuals who are pledged
to support the cooperative "agoinst the attacks1 of those who would
destroy the co-op for selfish purposes" Some 50 Tri-County minute
men present at the called meeting were likened to the original minute
men In history, and were urgJ to "defend their success" as owners
and operatois of kieir rural electric enterprize. The Eisenhower admin
istration's proposal to hike the REA intrest rate was repudiated "The
electric co-ops are too popular to be destroyed by frontal attack." de
clared J. C. Biewn, adding: "Get'em by raising the interest rate is the
Plan of the administration "

meeting held in Adamsvill last
Friday night. It was a called meet
ing of Trl-County's minutemen,
and a meeting of a nominating
committee to nominate directors
for the coming year.
Elaborating on the success of the
rural electric cooperatives, Brown
posed the question: "Could it have
happened without us?" What he
was asking was If rural electrifica
tion, as we now know it, would
have bappended without the el
ctric cooperatives. He said that
North Carolina is now 98 elec
trified and that many people not
served by cooperatives owe their
electric services the fact that the
existance of the cooperatives sti-
nic dinner will be served on the
Church grounds, giving all former
members and present members a
chance to renew old fellowships.

declaring, "congress did not set

The Eise'nhower administration's
proposal to hike the REA interest
rate above the present 2 was re
pudiated as a "pollcital" move
which would result in the ulti
mate destruction of the coopera
tives. "The Co.operatives are too
popular to be destroyed by frontal
attack - get'em by raising the in
terest rate', was Brown's appras
lal of the administration's proposal
for changing the REA interest
rate
Herbert Hulse of Goldsboro, at
torney for Tri-County E. M. C,
likened the minutemen present to
the origlnial minutemen in his
tory. Tri-County minutemen are
-o-op members and other individ

operative "against those who seek
to destroy the electric coopera

urged the minutemen to keep
themselves informed "so that they
may be in a position able to In
form others against the combina
tions an dtrojan forces that would
destroy the cooperatives In fur
therance of their selfish interests."
John Kershaw, general manager
of Trl-Ceunty E. M. C, remarKea
on the erowth and progress of the
cooperative. He commented that
system designs made four and five
years ago, and considered at the
time, to be adequate for seven or
