State Hospital seeks 12 million for Little Rock buildings
The Arkansas state Hospital asked lawmakers for 12,050,004 in new construction money with 10,696,354 earmarked for the Little Rock unit.

The hospital now serves about 4,600 patients, with a 38 percent rise in admissions over five years, risking overcrowding and conditions described by officials. Continued on page two.
