                 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
                 ----------------------------

Board of Directors
GFS Bancorp, Inc.
Grinnell, Iowa

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of
GFS Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiary as of June 30, 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of income, changes in
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended June 30,
1995 and 1994.  These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.  

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of GFS Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary as of
June 30, 1995 and the consolidated results of their operations
and their cash flows for the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
