.WoIfson Firm Sells
Ex-Transit Site for
Industrial Project

A seven-acre tract at Lyttons-
vile. Md, originally intended
for q Capital Transit Co. bus
terminal. has been sold to Joseph
Wells, ST., and associates for an
undisclosed price.
The tract was sold by Conti-
mental Enterprises. Inc, q COM
pany created in March last year
to. take over various so-called
incorporating properties of Cap
ital Transit Co. valued at around
SIS million.
Containing 304, 900 square feet,
the property was bought by the
transit company in 1916 as site
for new terminal. but the Wolf
son interests which acquired
control of Capital Transit late
in 1949, abandoned the plan.
When Continental was formed,
the property was transferred to
it along with a 15-acre tract at
Brentwood and Glen Echo
amusement park.
Mr.. Wells did not disclose the
price paid for the property, but
said his group plans to develop
it for industrial purposes in the
near future.
Another Rumor."
Reached by telephone in New
York, Martin Seigel, president of
Continental Enterprises. Inc,
and long an associate of Louis
E. Wolfson. said a report that
Continental Enterprises would
iquidate other former transit
properties and become a holding
company for Wolfson enterprises
as "just another crazy rumor."
He said he had been astounded
at the number of "crazy rumors"
about the .company's plans and
had been bombarded by tele-
phone calls from strangers as far
away as California.
1--WE are going to make Con-
tinental a steady company, a
good company" he declared.
I'VE have great plans for it,"
In regard to a rumor. that q
100000 offer had been turned
down for the Brentwood tract,
Mr.. Seigel said he had not heard
Of it. He added there were no
immediate plans to sell the
amusement park.
75-Cent Beginning.
When Continental Enterprises
was first created last year, some
stock changed hands at rs to 80
cents a share. but it was first
traded publicly at 81 share.
Now it is quoted on the over
the-counter market at 23z bid
and 3A offered. indicating a
probable price of around So a
share.
In sale of the Lyttonsville
tract, Continental was represents
ed by Hogan & Harrison and the
Wells group was represented by

L0f Fraud by Wire in
Real Estate Scheme

An Alexandria Federal Court
jury yesterday convicted George
Harold Wiltsie. 46. Of sending
illegal kilograms to carry out
a real estate scheme which four
Government employees say cost
them $19.500.
The jurors found Wiltsie
guilty on 10 separate counts in
the indictment, each carrying
a maximum penalty of five years
in prison.
Judge Albert V. Bryan allowed
Wiltsie to remain free under
$4,000 bond. pending completion
Of a probation report. No date
for sentencing was set.
Wiltsie, who lives in Hunting
ton subdivision in Fairfax Coun-
ty. was accused of taking money
from four Government employees
under pretense of buying an op-
ton on a piece of land adjacent
to Mount Vernon which the vic
Tins say they thought would be
resold at great profit.
Most of the victims worked at
Marine Corps headquarters in
Washington. where Wiltsie's wife
also was employed. According
to testimony, Wiltsie began COL
lecting money from the victims
in late 1852. when he told them
he had an option to buy 60
acres adjacent to Mount Vernon
and could resell the property
for two to four times above his
purchase price.
United States Attorney James
Moore produced bona fide owners
of the property, who said they
never gave Wiltsie or any one
else an option on the land. The
kilograms involved in the case
were sent to the victims aft~-
they gave money to Wiltsie, al
ways postponing the date when
the deal was to go through.
Defense Attorney Ralph Payne

swindle scheme charged by the
Government. He based his en-

Mr.. Moore in his closing argu-
ments to the jury. described
Wiltsie's actions as "the trial Of
the typical confidence man." He
argued that the kilograms were
very much a part of the scheme
