-STATUTE-

No provision of any contract entered into by the United States,

relating to the finality or conclusiveness of any decision of the

head of any department or agency or his duly authorized

representative or board in a dispute involving a question arising

under such contract, shall be pleaded in any suit now filed or to

be filed as limiting judicial review of any such decision to cases

where fraud by such official or his said representative or board is

alleged: Provided, however, That any such decision shall be final

and conclusive unless the same is fradulent (!1) or capricious or

arbitrary or so grossly erroneous as necessarily to imply bad

faith, or is not supported by substantial evidence.
