Arkansas Supreme Court ruled the state refunding board lacked authority to honor road contractor claims based on anticipated profits or illegal contracts. The decision overturned a Pulaski chancery ruling and limited claims to about half a million dollars tied to halting the Arkansas road program in 1981 due to depleted funds. A separate ruling denied a rehearing for National Refining in its dispute over a $21,000 supplies claim. The text notes a dinner in Wortham, England, with ages totaling 1,000 years.
