The Town Board of Health in Des Moines extended eight years for 6000 Iowa nursing homes built before 1957 to meet new construction standards or lose licenses. A compromise ends previous actions, with by January 1978 all homes statewide to offer standard health and safety facilities or be unlicensed.

Miller says federal farm aid not very successful
Senator Jack Miller of Iowa told a Chicago luncheon of the American Farm Bureau Federation that federal efforts to support farmer incomes have not been very successful. He noted inflation skews the 15 billion dollar national net income, which would drop to 1.5 billion less than 1919 levels if inflation were removed. Miller praised Congress for allocating substantial funds to aid farm income, while urging continued action.
