Federal City
Plan Favored
By Committee

Maryland Senator John Mar
shall Buffers proposal to estab-
fish federal city in Maryland
has been favored in principal by
the Senate Government Opera
tons Committee, according to
Mr. Buffers office.
Sen. Butler introduced legiSla-
ton calling for the relocation of
a number of government agencies
from Washington to a spot in
Montgomery or Prince Georges
counties.
The senator is now revising
that bill in light of two Govern
ment Operations Committee rec.
concentrations. The committee
suggested eliminating the re-
quirement that the federal city
must be in Montgomery or Prince
Georges counties.
Sen. Buffers office says, how
ever, there is "tacit understand
ing" that the group. of relocated
agencies will go in one of the
suburban Maryland counties.

Polio Fund
Turns Down
Coop Check

The National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis has twice refus-
ed to accept a $500 check con-
tributed to the March of Dimes
by $50 employees of suburban
Maryland organization.
Robert E. Morrow, controller of
Greenbelt Consumer Services,
Inc, said this week the check
had been returned twice by John
Manlich, Jr., State representative
of the national polio foundation.
The reason stated by Mr.. Man
Itch, Mr. Morrow said was that
it is the policy of the national
foundation not to accept funds
raised from payroll deductions in
which other (charitable) agencies
have been included.
Employees of Greenbelt Consum-
er Services, which operates CO.
OP stores in Greenbelt, Takoma
Park and Wheaton, have the OPP
ton Of authorizing payroll deduc-
tons for specific charities, Mr..
Morrow explained. In addition,
$1,000 is contributed to the fund
by management.
Mr.. Morrow said trustees of
the employe charity fund would
meet this week to ponder the dill
emma of what to do with the
money. "But apparently we can't
give it to the March of Dimes
even though the employees speci-
fled that is where it should go, -

ANTIQUES ALMANAC
BY GEORGE FLYNN

A visit to the Langhorne
Sale at Sloane's Galleries last
week convinced us anew Of the
validity Of the mixed-metaphor
maxim of veteran auction fol-
lowers: Only the brave de-
serve the spoils.
The sale was marked with
scores of fine antiques from
the estate of the late Mabel j.
Langhorne. widow Of the
American diplomat, Marshall
Langhorne. The auction was
stretched out to five days with
addenda from other collec-
lions. 1t ended yesterday
Despite the best efforts of
the auctioneers, a NUMBER OF
pieces of quality were knocked
down at extremely reasonable
prices, as an overflow crowd,
sometimes numbering more
than 300, watched on the dsy
we attended.
This resulted from no short
age of dealers or expert COL
lectorS. for both types of auc-
ton followers were plentiful,
aware that seldom does a
varied collection like the Lang
horne's appear on the auction
block.
Gallery Given Works
Walter A. Buscher, executor
of the estate, informed us only
the furniture collection had
been reduced by one desk and
one chest of drawers which
had been bequeathed to in

dividuals, while the National
Gallery of Art was given a
choice of paintings from the
estate. The gallery selected So.
There were these surprises
in the bidding:
A small English antique
Chinese lacquer decorated
desk with a slant top and
cloven feet brought $50. At
private sale, the seller could
ask twice that figure.
Three Queen Anne side
chairs, with fiddle splats,
gilded and covered with bro
cade. were sold for $50 each.
An English silver tankard,
attributed to Bateman and be-
lieved to have been made
about 1907, went for only $40
in spite Of its attractive gold
wash interior.
A small mahogany Chippen-
dale mirror. apparently in fine
condition, sold for $50.
Ironically, six Hitchcock
chairs were sold for $40, just a
few cents more than the price
of one modern reproduction.
There we're contraStingly
equitable prices. An early
pine. three-drawer chest with
gallery top, on which bidding
began slowly, drew a top bid
of $112.50.
Uncertain Pattern
A good mahogany buffers
secretary was sold for $185.
The winner bidder, a woman,
mistakenly noted on her auc-
ton slip a price 500 higher.
When the figure was corrected
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-10-21

by the auctioneer. she shrugged
and announced she had been
prepared to pay the higher
price.
What the price pattern indi-
Gated is difficult to explain.
Today's bargain can be tomor-
rows outrage, if auction prices
alone are considered. 1t was
obvious. though. that many
fine pieces were available at
moderate prices last week.
The Langhorne collection
came from the 16-room home
Of the family at 2211 r street
NV. Mr.. Langhorne died in
1912; his widow in February,
1855. She left an estate valued
at more than $2.7 million. large
portions of which were given to
