The electric industry must solve many
technical problems---and research
efforts must be stepped up--in order
to help protect the environment. Elec-
tric generation plants must be built
which more efficiently deal with ad-
verse effects of discharging heat,
gases, liquids and particulates to air
and water. And new technology to
transmit and distribute power will be
needed in the years ahead, if we are
to satisfactorily solve environmental
problems.
Protecting our environment from the
impact of increased demands for elec-
trical energy is also one of the factors
contributing to higher electric rates.
Clean fuel is becoming scarce and
expensive. Pollution control equipment
is costly. The U.S. Council on Environ-
mental Quality has found that proper
safeguards for a power plant can in-
crease the total cost of the plant by
as much as 36%.

Electricity already has a special role
in making your own personal environ-
ment more comfortable. And that role
will grow in the years ahead. Today,
electricity performs many tasks to pro-
vide cleanliness and comfort. Electric
heating, air conditioning, and humidifiers
enable you to live in a cleaner, more
comfortable indoor environment. A
variety of air cleaning devices, such as ,,
filters in heating and air cleaning sys-
tems and electronic air cleaners,
remove smoke, dirt, pollen and other
impurities from the air you breathe.
In many ways, electricity has dra-
matically improved the quality of our
lives. With increased research efforts,
it can become even more useful in the
years to come.

auction table was a pin-up
calendar, created by the sixth
grade students, featuring baby
pictures of the Pioneer staff. Up,
up, up and up went the bidding,
with Bert Miller outlasting all
bidders to claim the popular item
for $15.75.
All in all, it was a very fun
night with a good-sized crowd
present to partake of the fun.
And, best of all, it proved to be
most successful with the sixth
grade accomplishing a year-long
goal and their much-anticipated
trip to Canada assured in just two
short weeks.
Thursday evening a large
group of sixth gradc girls,
accompanied by their morns,
attended a Mother-Daughter
Banquet for one group of Camp
Fire Girls and two groups of Blue
Birds. Leaders are Sharon Cook
for the Camp Fire Girls; Sally
Cook and Judy Heiser each have a
group of Blue Birds.
The regular meeting of the
Pioneer School Board will be held
May 14 at 8 p.m.
The Pioneer Carnival has been
postponed. The new date,
probably the first part of June,
will be announced next week.
The levy committee held a
meeting this past Monday
evening. Plans were made to cover
the district with new fact sheets
explaining the cuts made in the
1975-1976 budget and the
reduced levy request. Thursday
evening of this week there will be
a brief meeting for all distribution
volunteers to pick up the fact
sheets and they will have a chance
to ask any questions they may
want clarified before going out to
meet the public.
GI home loan
fact told
New GI loan policies that
apply to all veterans with military
service since the start of World
War I1 make more than 20 million
veterans eligible for the Veterans
Administration guaranteed loans;
~" 'Arfiong"~ them are ~rnbid th'~"
four million veterans whose GI
loans have been paid in full, VA
Administrator Richard L.
Roudebush said. Those who have
never used their eligibility are still
eligible even though they might
have been out of the service more
than 30 years.
Also potentially eligible for
new loans are those veterans with
current loans outstanding. The
only condition for restored
eligibility is that the first loan be
paid off and the home be
disposed of.
In addition to broadened
eligibility rules, new legislation
raised the maximum portion of a
loan VA is allowed to guarantee
from $12,500 to $17,500 and
made it easier to buy mobile
homes and condominiums.
Changes affecting the
purchase of mobile homes are -
A provision for loans to
purchase lots on which to place
mobile home units already owned
by veterans.
An increase in the maximum
permissible loan amounts to
$12,500 for a single-wide unit and
$20,000 for a double-wide unit.
Liberalized rules for
guaranteeing loans on used mobile
homes.
Plus tax and license.
