ROOSEVELT CALLS
P0WERP00L TALK

80 to Discuss Project for
Southeast.
BY ]. RUSSELL YOUNG.

q call for q conference Of representa-
tives of public and private interests

pool through the cooperation of the
Tennessee Valley Authority and the
private utility interests in that section.

pooling. In q statement Of the Presi-
dent made public by Mcintyre, MIR.
Roosevelt made it plain he Is anxious
to have q plan worked out that will
establish these so-called power pools.
Benefits Are Cited.
The President said such pool Of
private and public interests and ia
cilities would benefit all concerned and
should make it possible to furnish the
public with cheap and abundant power.
The Presidents hope also is that a
plan, such as he has in mind, will
not only be possible in the Southeast
but in other regions of the country
as well, and that it will serve to pro-
mote the rapid expansion Of the
Governments rural electrif1cation
program, thereby bringing about what
he describes as the proper development
Of the unparalleled natural resources
Of this country.

House conference are Wendell l..

Statement Of President.
According to Secretary McIntyre's
statement, "If q satisfactory under
standing regarding the pooling Of

will perhaps be laid for working out
similar arrangements In other regions
