Vol. 8 No. 42

Des Moines, Iowa

February 11,1980

Conference Committee to Meet March 4
The Senate-House Conference
Committee is scheduled to begin
m eeting March 4 to resolve
differences in the financial bills
passed late last year by the two
branches of Congress. Those bills
were H.R. 7 (Federal Reserve Bill)
and the accom panying NOW
account legislation, and S. 1347
(Proxmire-Cranston Reg Q b ill).
While the House failed to address
the Reg Q question, the Senate bill
did not take up the Federal Reserve
membership question.
The Conference Committee will
address those differences.
Sincve the authority for banks,
savings and loans and credit unions
to offer transaction accounts,
remote service units and share
drafts was to expire December 31,
1979, under an order from the
W ashington, D. C., Court of
Appeals unless Congress acted, the
Conference Committee did agree in
December to a three-month exten­
sion of those powers, due to expire
March 31.
This sets a March 31 deadline for
action by the Conference Committee
since continuing life for those
financial powers is a part of the two
bills. The committee could merely
act on another 90-day extension,
but this is considered unlikely by
Washington observers. Congress­
ional members apparently feel it is
time to take action and get financial

legislation out of the way for
over-riding matters of national and
international importance—energy,
Iran and now the R ussian
question—especially with a Presi­
dential election already underway.
Consequently, it is felt in banking
circles that action will be taken by
the Conference Committee—prob­
ably with more speed than might
otherwise be noted, due to pressing
circum stances of other national
business.
Lending credence to this obser­
vation is the statement reportedly
made by Rep. Henry Reuss (D.,
W is.), chairman of the House
Banking and Currency Committee,
who is quoted as saying we will have
national NOW accounts by April 1.

ATTORNEYS, DES MOINES, IOWA
The City of Council Bluffs, Iowa, encompasses 26,200 acres and is the County Seat of Pottawattamie County. It is the industrial, farming, trading and
shipping center for Western Iowa. The City is the center of one of the richest agricultural regions in the U.S., this in conjunction with transportation,
manufacturing and wholesale and retail trading affords the City a diversified economic base. Much of the City’s development can be attributed to its
unusually fine transportation facilities. In addition to water transportation provided by the Missouri River, the City is the fifth largest railroad center in the
United States. Its business district is less than one-half hour from the Omaha Metropolitan Airport. Truck access is provided by two U.S. and four State
Highways and the intersection of Interstate 80,29 and 480. Some of the largest employers in the City are: Council Bluffs Public Schools (employs 1,186);
Great Plains Beef (beef processing, employs 1,000); City of Council Bluffs (employs 500); Mercy Hospital (employs 740); Jennie Edmundson Memorial
Hospital (employs 640); Blue Star Foods, Inc. (canned chicken and frozen fruit, meat pies and dinners, employs 330); and Griffin Pipe Products (iron pipe,
employs 300).
These bonds are being issued under the provisions of Chapter 384, Code of Iowa, 1979 as amended, for the purpose of street resurfacing and paving,
sidewalk and curb replacement, railroad crossing repairs, sanitary and storm sewer separation and park improvement. In the opinion of counsel, these
bonds are legal and binding general obligations of the City of Council Bluffs, Iowa, and all taxable property located therein is subject to the levy of sufficient
taxes to pay the principal of and interest on the bonds without limit as to rate or amount.
