Court Challenges Omnibus Bill as Unconstitutional
Arkansas Supreme Court heard arguments that Gov. Faubus' 14.9 million omnibus construction law violates the state constitution on five points. Attorney Eugene Warren argued the act oversteps limits by funding multiple subjects, delegating legislative power, lacking specific appropriations, diverting revenue, and diverting funds from the public school fund. Opposing counsel contended the bill is legal, noting surplus funds allowance and urging affirmation of the Chancellor.
