NO SERVICE CHARGE ON DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS Moore State Bank LLANO, TEXAS Member Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Power Shortage To Affect Coop Farm Bureau Protests Ag Cut Farm Bureau president, J. T. (Red) Woodson said today that the federal cost- sharing program for most soil and water conservation practices should be continued. Commenting on the Administration's cut-off of funds for the Rural Environmental Assistance (REAP) and Water Bank programs, and disaster loans to farmers, the state farm leader said that agriculture should nol expected to bear an unequal portion of federal spending cuts. Under the REAP program, annual payments have been offered land owners covering part of the cost of Installing approved conservation and pollution control practices.

"This program, which Is cost-sharing and not an Income supplement, benefits all people," Woodson said. "It is people," Woodson said. "It Is an investment In the future of this country and not a solely for the benefit of land owners." flu- soil and water conservation practices not only contribute to pollution control, but also help provide Americans wllh a bountiful food supply at reasonable prices." Woodson farmers and ranchers do support measures to reduce Inflationary pressures they am hurt more than most groups by high- fir production costs since they cannot pas.s along cost increases. If the Administration is determined to cut federal spending, il should be across Robert Taylor: Ecology Award The official Stale Hclath Department's certificate of com- pentency for ecology workers has been awarded to Robert L.

Pb, Members of Central Texas Electric Cooperative are to be affected by the availability of electric energy, according to Manager W.c. McWIlllams of f'rederlcksliurg, McWIlllams Issued a statement this week following widely circulated reports of Increases In rates for municipal customers and members of Cooperatives who receive wholesale electric service from Lower Colorado River Authority, the principal wholesale electric supplier In this area, "For the past several months," Me Will lams said, "LCRA has unable to meet alt the demands for wholesale electric service by Us customers, Including CTEC and this has resulted In voltage problems In some areas served by this Cooperallve. According to word received from Lower Colorado River Authority, there may be continued reductions In the amount of electricity available this winter duo to shortages of fuels to operate their power plants al Bastrop and New Braunfels, whore gas and dlesel fuel Is used to generate electricity. LCRA has Issued various suggestions on how to conserve the use of electricity In homos and businesses, and we now pass along the suggestion to our members, to avoid any unnecessary use of electricity on the farms and ranches or In the business Interests we serve. "We feel that our members want to cooperate with all concerned In this need for conserving electric energy, and there fore pass along the suggestion from LCRA," McWIl- llams said.

Along with this and reports and rumors of rate Increases, McWIlllams had this comment: "Central Texas Electric Cooperative has not raised Its eieclrlc rates to members since 19132. Nor do we know right now when or how much our rates will have to Increased In the future, and we will not know this until LCRA officially and directly advises us as to what their raise on hole sale e- lectrlclty will be. "We are sure, 1 McWIlllams continued, "that a rate Increase to the members of Central Texas Electric Cooperative Is evllable, since LCRA has publlclally stated that they will raise the rates to us In the future. Whenever LCRA makes clear Its future action, we will be able to down and analysis our situation, make proper application to RKA In Washington, and then inform our members directly as to future rates for their electric service. "Central Texas Electric Cooperative has had several wholesale power ratelricreasos since 1052." MoWilllams said, "but has been able to absorb them from operating revenues until now.

The last sucli Increase by LCRA In wholesale rates was In 1972, and we had hoped to be able to continue our services to CTEC members without a rate- increase, but In view of the tremendous Increases in cost of materials as well as the continuing rising costs of wholesale electric power, wo may have to pass on a slight Increase In rates to our members. Bui, until wo have full details on the actions of Lower Colorado River Authority Board of Directors, wo Invlto our to await official notification from the Cooperative as to future rates," Me Williams said. Of additional concern to all residents of the Hill Country, Highland Lakes, and especially the members of Central Texas Electric Cooperative Is the aiinouiicornt'iit last Friday that President Nixon, by executive order, has wiped out all Rural Electrification and Cooperative Telephone financing, forcing the Cooperatives to sock funcling at greater Interest rates. 1111 a in further commented on the; affect of this, action, noting that until official and detailed Information Is received, the preliminary thoughts aru that this will certainly ad'l oven more rntu Increases to Iho members of the Cooperatives. McWllliam.s met with other officials of rural tlon In Austin on Thursday am Friday, anil spoke with RI-IA officials In Washington con- corning the action of Iho President.

"Tills action," Me Will said, "completely wipes out the. financing of rural electriflca lion whidi was established by the I'jco Act of 1944, and forces U.s to seek loans at five, 1 per cent Instead of the two per con rate established by Congress The Rural Electrification Administration was created 36 years ago to fill the crillca electric power void that existed throughout Rural America "Nol only has Iho program enabled rural residents to become first class contributed rnlghtly to our foot productlon capaliHtllus, but the lEA program has bocomo a showcase of success that Is I he envy of the world. "While rural electric operatives and power districts inve been moving as rapidly as possible to develop private financing to meet part of their needs, few any rural electric systems would exist today If it were not 'or the longterm, low-cost Interest loan program provided by RE A. "In return to the two percent rate we have been receiving, we agreed to serve anyone, anywhere, whether the service was financially feasible or not. What immediate effect this wilt have on our Cooperative, and especially on our rates, cannot yet be determined, but we will go to Washington and await further word from the Administration," Me William concluded.
