fast check of 52 cents Wed

fered him $100, $200 and then
$10,000. A gasping Martin re
fused the offers so he could
take time to think it over.
Meanwhile, a dispute has
arisen over the coin's authenticity.
The Denver mint and U.S.
mint in Washington have ex
pressed doubts that there
were any copper pennies
minted In 1043. The pennies
in that, wartime , year wore
steel with zinc coating.
Leland Howard, assistant
director of the Bureau of the
Mint in Washington said that
other alleged wartime copper
pennies have turned out to
have been copper plated or
else to have had their dates
altered,
But Baker said he had giv
en the coin acid, weight and
magnetic tests and was con
vinced .it was genuine. He
said it appeared to show nor
mal wear. Baker said he had
reports of one other such coin.
Martin, married and the
father of three, said he was
"penniless except for the
one penny." He came to the
United Stales from England
In 105S.
Current plans call for Mar
tin and Baker to put it up for
auction. Other dealers have
estimated that if It Is genuine,
it will bring from $10,000 to
$25,000.

Barry and Lyndon
In Sharp Debate
On Senate Floor
Washington - (UPD - Political
tempers flared in the Senate
today as Democratic presiden
tial nominee John F. Kenne
d's legislative program near
ed general collapse.
Kennedy's running mate,
Senate Democratic Leader
Lyndon B. Johnson, engaged
Sen. Barry Goldwater (R
Arlz.) in sharp debate on the
Senate floor. He charged that
Republican "obstructionism"
was delaying adjournment of
the pre-election session.
The debate began when
Goldwater asked Johnson to
give some idea of when ad
journment might be possible.
Quotes Kennedy
Goldwater quoted Kennedy
as saying in effect that "we
might as well go home."
Johnson said adjournment
will become possible when Re
publicans on the House Rules
committee decide to permit
minimum wage, housing and
education bills to go to con
ference. He said the Republi
cans are following obstruc
tionist policies, and "obvious
ly want to make a political
session of this." .
Goldwater retorted that the
House Rules committee is two
thirds Democratic. He said
"It is surprising to me that
the Democrats can't control
it."
Sen. Kenneth B. Keating
(R-N. Y.) said "many of us"
will fight efforts to adjourn
before a long list of bills is
considered.
Bills Mentioned
He mentioned an Immigra
tion bill, a housing bill, an
area redevelopment bill and
a farm bill "which he (Ken
nedy) said he would introduce
during this session."
"We should not adjourn,"
Keating said, borrowing a fa
vorite phrase of Johnson's,
"until we have attended to
the people's business."
Sen. Thurston B. Morion
of Kentucky, Republican na
tional chairman, said in a
statement no recent Congress
has "had so many Democrats
floundering so much and pro
ducing so little." He said the
Democrats had planned the
present session "to provide
a free political forum for their
ticket."
Bickering, Floundering
"Instead, they have spent
wearisome days bickering,
floundering and politicking
and generally making a sorry
spectacle of themselves to the
nation - all at the taxpayers'
expense," Morton said.
"Sen. Johnson's political
strategy has blown up right
in Sen. Kennedy's face. Sen.
Kennedy's frantic appeal now
is: 'How do we fold our tents
and steal silently away in the
night.'
Board Takes Over
In Rail Dispute
Chicago -IUPD- The National
Railway Mediation board to
day notified the Santa Fe Rail
road Trainmen that it had as
sumed jurisdiction in the la
bor dispute which led to the
BRT calling a strike against
the road.
BRT headquarters in Cleve
land immediately announced
the strike had been postponed
pending outcome of the nego
tiations. William P. Kennedy, presi
dent of the union, announced
Wednesday that a strike had
been authorized against the
railroad beginning at 6 a.m.
Sunday. The dispute involved
work rules which the brother
hood described as "out
moded." Negotiations have been car
ried on at Amarillo, Tex. Un
ion officials said that person
nel directly affected by the
strike would include switch
men, brakemen, dining car
stewards and baggagemen.
