Query on 5-Day Week
Police Benefits Ruled Out

The District Commissioners yes
terday turned thumbs down on a
query from Police Supt. Robert j.
Barrett, asking If he could apply
some benefits Of a five-day week
to his men, although the force is
still on six-day basis.
Maj. Barrett had pointed out
that, although the five-day week
was authorized by Congress, it
has not gone into effect because of
a shortage of personnel. The
force will remain on a six-day
week until at least 200 of the 300
authorized additional policemen
have been appointed and trained.
He raised the question. however,
as to whether or not, In comput-
ing lump sum leave payments,
two days off each week should
be considered.
The Commissioners ruled they
had no authority for granting
compensation on a five-day week
basis until the new schedules go

John Hebditch' S Widow
Wins S112,500 Of Estate
Ry The A.seeiatad Press

BEL AIR. Md, Nov. 10.-The
courts have awarded $112,500 to
a pretty, young widow who mar
ried wealthy John Hebditch when
he was II and lived, with him for
only four months.
Mrs. Louise Hebditch Languis,
who was 18 when she married the
Havre de Grace real estate and
soft drink tycoon in January. 1948,
won the settlement in Hartford
County Circuit Court after years
litigation.
She had sued for a third Of Mr..
Hebditch's $1,000 estate after he
died in March. 1949. He had not
mentioned her in his will.
His children of previous mar
riage had contended that Mrs.
Languis had no claim because she
signed a pact with Mr.. Hebditch
two months before he died in
which she agreed to divorce him
for $1,000.
Mrs. Languis, who married again
last August to John Paul Languis,
a young civilian employe at the
Edgewood (Md0 Army Chemical
Center, said the only plan she has
for use Of the money is a new
house. She said she and her hus-
band already have a new car and
she has a fur coat.

By The Assoejo,sd Pres,

A check of recent history indi-
Gated today the possibility that
the thin Democratic control of the
new Senate could be wiped out by
the grim factor which the military
calls attrition.
There is a chance, too, that
deaths and designations will widen
the slender 49-to-47 margin by
which the Democrats expect to
organize the new Senate in JAN
uary.
Senate records show 80 mem
bers of that body died in Office
during the last six sessions-or IL
years. That is an average of five
Senators for each session. The
fatalities ranged from three to
nine for a session.
Tuesdays elections trimmed the
Democratic majority from 81 to
AZ down to 40 to At. Since Vice
President Barkley may vote when
ever the Senate is tied, Democrats
would retain control If the split
were 48 to 48.
House Control Overturned in 1880.
Several times in recent years
the death or resignation OF a
Senator has altered the party
lineup. A change does not result
every time there is vacancy.
This is because such vacancies
are filled by the Governor of the
State involved. Usually the Gov
ernor appoints a loyal member OF
his own party.

On Coins
By Ted Hammer

libroricn. American Numismofic Association
If leaders of a century ago re-
turned to the political front in
the United States today, one of
the things they might miss would
be the tokens that marked 10th
century campaigns.
To-day, radio comedian can get
a lot of laughs out of the Dewey
and Hoover buttons. He'd have a
field day with some of the cam
paign tokens of the last century.
Biting satire marked many Of
these tokens.
Between 1887 and 1914, so-called
hard time tokens" or jackson
cents not only were issued by the
thousands, but were used for cents.
They were the size of the old-type
large cent issued by the United
States, 1793-1857.
The tokens generally were in
copper and fell into two general
groups-political tokens dealing
with President Jackson'S fight
against a proposed United States
bank, and those issued by busi-
nesses. The latter often are re-
ferred to as tradesmen's tokens,
and bore advertisements of the
firms issuing them.
Floyd Farha of Wichita, Kans.,
became interested in Jackson cents
about a year ago and decided to
collect as many different varieties
or designs as possible. He has
some 500 now and he's still look
ing for others. While a few of
the tokens bring SO cents to ST.,
most of them are common and
can be obtained at 10 to Is cents
each. Often collector can buy
lots Of 100 at 10 cents each or less.
