Description
Clair Engle was a Democratic member of the California Senate elected in 1936, and a member of the United States House of Representatives, from California's 2nd district, from 1943-1959. He worked to expand the California Central Valley Project and served on several committees while Congressman and Senator. Engle authored or co-authored 104 bills that were signed into law. Engle worked on the West Coast Intertie in 1963 to facilitate the construction of four major, long-distance, extra-high-voltage transmission lines to bring power from federal dams in the Pacific Northwest to markets in Southern California. This audio recording is likely a recording of a speech about Engle's legislative efforts related to the intertie, given at the American Public Power Association Convention, held in Cleveland, Ohio. It was recorded 4 months before he underwent surgery to remove a fatal brain tumor. California Audiovisual Preservation Project
