One of the early triumphs of Arkansas’s thirty-second governor, Homer Adkins, was the passage of the Highway Debt Re-funding Bill shortly after his election in 1940. Adkins was able to convince the federal government through its Reconstruction Finance Corporation to purchase $137 million in state bonds to re-fund the state’s highways. He is shown in this photo signing the 1941 bill.
