Land purchase bill would reshape Arkansas Capitol area
A bill in the Arkansas Senate would abolish the Public Building Authority and let the state acquire blocks around the Capitol. Sen. Max Howell said land and several office buildings could be bought for no more than 30 million dollars and tied to the Revenue Building Commission. The measure also permits eminent domain if a fair price cannot be reached, with funds from existing appropriations and revenue bonds.

It upheld a Pulaski County ruling, finding lack of compliance with the Arkansas Administrative Procedures Act and no statutory basis for rule making.

Washington AP report says the U S Product Safety Commission failed to push a nationwide ban on firecrackers and bottle rockets before July 4. Regulatory action would arrive too late due to legal appeals and interstate commerce issues, making any 1974 crackdown unlikely to affect holiday safety.
