Explains Why Hospital Funds Not Available in Arkansas County
A Hempstead County committee, led by Frank Mella and Moody Moore, sought federal and state support for a 1648 bed county hospital. They learned federal aid was limited and funding depended on prior grants. In 1954 the state designated funds for Blytheville and Tunstall units, with Hempstead County possibly receiving some federal aid later. The plan faced ongoing funding uncertainties and bureaucratic hurdles.
