Transmission of electricity urged for U S
Roosevelt faced a broad proposal from the Mississippi Valley committee urging federal control of the nation’s electricity transmission. The plan envisions unifying lines into a cheap power pool, a 1 billion dollar 20 year public works program, and dam use for power, navigation, and flood control, without deciding ownership. The note also mentions Public Works Administration funding for municipal and federal power projects and a rural electrification push. A Mary Todd Lincoln stone was installed at the Girl Route headquarters in Washington.
