Officials of the Choptank Electric Cooperative voiced concerns at the tenth annual meeting over rising wholesale power costs and construction expenses. Manager Francis E.

Farm Journal’s Frank Watts urged keeping youths on farms via electrification, noting democracy’s future hinges on rural opportunity. Directors reelected were Moore, Davis, Nuttle, Hall, Widdowson, Keenan, and Malkus.
