- Description:
- The document is from the Rural Electrification Administration to Congressman George B. Schwabe regarding requests for electric service from E.J. Brooks in Pawhuska, Oklahoma, and Schwabe's farm in Kansas, Oklahoma. The Verdigris Valley Electric Cooperative, Inc. in Collinsville, Oklahoma, and the East Central Oklahoma Electric Cooperative, Inc. in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, are involved in providing service. The document explains funding issues and delays in providing service due to lack of appropriations from Congress. Brooks expresses the need for electric power in his farming community and requests Schwabe's assistance in obtaining it. The document also mentions a news item about a large fund bill approved by the House for federal agencies.
