| F THE clash between large budget deficits and anti-inflationary
policy continues, an upturn from the
current recession is unlikely to be
sustained, according to Dr. Sung
W on Son, senior vice president and
chief economist at Northwestern
National Bank of Minneapolis.
In remarks made at the release of
a long-term national and agricultural outlook in INDICATORS, a
publication of the bank’s economics
department, Mr. Son said, “ Under
the present policy stance, there is a
significant risk that rising interest
rates will lead to another downturn
next year.”
“ The economic climate would re­
main unfavorable under this stopand-go scenario,” Mr. Son commented. “ Recoveries in sales of
houses and big-ticket items would
be modest and temporary, at best,
while capital-spen din g grow th
would remain weak. Financial stress
would certainly mount.”
A lthough policy adjustm ents
aimed at reducing ballooning Fed­
eral deficits are required before sus­
tained recovery can be predicted
with any certainty, Mr. Son said,
“ Important seeds have been planted
that could bring an end to the seem­
ingly annual recession pattern. Gov­
ernment is becoming smaller and
more efficient, and regulations less

The City of Iowa Falls constructed and began to operate the Ellsworth Municipal Hospital as a city-owned enterprise in 1902. A new wing
directly south of the existing building was constructed in 1935. In 1963 the City constructed the two-story west wing and demolished the old
building. The medical staff consists of nine M.D.’s actively using the facilities in the practice of their profession.
The Hospital is located in the City of Iowa Falls which is situated in Hardin County near the Franklin County line. The patient origin analysis
indicates that the hospital’s service area has remained relatively consistent over the past five years.
The Bonds are being issued to pay a portion of the costs of improvements and additions to the Hospital, including the design of a new twostory brick wing containing 30 private rooms and 38,000 square feet and the reconstruction and remodeling of the 1963 wing. These im­
provements will provide a new intensive Coronary Care Unit, remodeled and improved Obstetrical Department, remodeled, improved and ex­
panded surgical, physical therapy, respiratory, radiology, out-patient, intensive care and laboratory and counseling areas.
