FARMERS HOME ADMINISTRATION MAKES CHANGE IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Montana's State FmHA Director, Arthur E. Lund, announced today that in an effort to provide better mamagement supervision and assistance to borrowers, the agency is implementing a change from the Farm and Home Plan to the Coordinated Financial Statements for Agriculture (CFSA). Lund said the phase-in will occur over ft years, with training for field employees to take place this summer and fall. The training which is about to begin heralds a big change for Farmers Home Administration. Not only is it a change in forms, but one in procedure and attitude as well. Lund emphasized that FmHA employees are charged with the responsibility to help farmers succeed in farming, and in these times, financial savvy is the most important factor in that effort. FmHA is willing to give farmers the help they need to understand how their operations really work and where their money is really going. FmHA borrowers will complete the Coordinated Financial Statements with the assistance of FmHA personnel. This new system will not only enable FmW to make precise loan and servicing decisions and to back them up with solid figures, FmHA borrowers will better understand their operations and be able to make sounder decisions. According to Lund, the phase-in period will begin with the 1984 crop year; by that time all FmHA county offices will be expected to use the CFSA for all new borrowers plus a few existing borrowers. Each year additional existing borrowers will go to the new system and by the end of ft years all FmHA borrowers will be cont. on pg. 5 CONTRACT LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR POPLAR The City of Poplar has recently signed an agreement with the Roosevelt County Commissioners and the Roosevelt County Sheriff's Department for contract law enforcement.

PERMIT �i> SUBSCRIPTION RATE $8.00 PER > EAR July 14,1983 YOU ARE IMPORTANT POPLAR COMMUNITY HOSPITAL NEEDS YOUR HELP Dear People of Poplar, Once again we are faced with the crisis of competitive bidding for our hospital, and once again I urge each of you to write immediately to oppose IT. Should the l.H.S. (Indian Health Service) deride upon competitive bidding between Poplar Comm unity Hospital and Wolf Point Trinity; and further; should Wolf Point Trinity receive the bid; we would be forced to close our doors. Over 70% of our occupancy is Indian Health Service patients and our hospital can't exist without that contract. If the hospital closes ~ approximately 73 people will be out of work. Our Nursing Home would be forced to close. We'd undoubtedly lose our private physician, our trained nurses and our volunteer ambulance crew. Everytime we'd confront a medical disaster, we'd have to drive at least 22 miles for help-�people in rural areas would travel farther. Imagine the length of time that is for _a patient having a heart attack �or one who is bleeding profusely. Months ago we were faced with this competitive bidding dilemma. We urged you to write letters � and write you did! You overwhelmed our congressmen with Poplar mail that arrived by the sackful. Norman Hollow and his Fort Peck Tribal Executive Board conducted an outstanding battle on behalf of our hospital by sending telegrams, letters and representatives to Washington. You all "did us proud" arid we were able to "table" the the competitive bidding. Since then our occupancy in the hospital has grown. Dr. Craig Nickolson became our private physician and invested in property in our community. More people used the Community Medical Clinic than ever before�and we were hopeful once again. I'm not willing to lose all that without a fight� �and that is exactly what it is going to take. Every Indian and non-Indian, every man, woman and child had better write letters to our congressmen immediately to oppose competitive bidding. If you feel you can't write your own letter� we have form letters available at the Poplar Hospital Office. We've got to all 'pitch in together'. We owe this to our elderly, our youth and to ourselves. Here's a simple guideline: (1) Write a letter opposing competitive bidding to your congressmen. (Addresses below) (2) If you can't write your own letter, go to the Community Hospital Office and get the form letters. Sign your own name.
