Pier Operator
Plans Resort
Potomac Promoter
Acquires II Acres

COLONIAL BEACH. Va.
April Is. tR.-Plans for q
quarter-million dollar project
in Maryland were disclosed to-
day by the operator Of a gam
ing pier being forced out of
business here by q new Mary
land law.
Walter c. Hendrix. owner Of
the Monte Carlo pier. said the
new project would be about a
half mile east Of the Potomac
River bridge on U. s. 30l in
Charles County, Md.
Hendrix said he planned to
construct a bar. game room.
restaurant. club room. outdoor
swimming pool. motor court and
picnic facilities.
Frontage on Route sol
He purchased II acres, in
Guiding an 800-foot frontage
on heavily Travelled u. S. sol.
The operator said 40 contract
had been let and he did not ex-
pect the project to be COM
pleted before this fall at the
earliest.
II know I'll pull 80 per cent
Of the Virginia trade I'm get
ting now" said Hendrix.
The law which is expected to
cripple his 100 slot-machine
pier here goes into effect
June /. 1t prohibits the opera
ton Of gaming devices at any
location which can't be reached
by foot from Maryland.
The pier is one Of three jrt-
ting in TO the Maryland-owned
waters Of the Potomac River
here. They are reached by foot
from the Virginia shore.
Studying Law
Mr.. Hendrix said he probably
will sell his pier here If there
is no change in the situation.
Pier operators have retained an
attorney to study the new law
and decide whether it should
be challenged.
Hendrix said his new project
will be erected regardless Of
whether a challenge is made.
Delbet Conner, operator Of
400 slot machines on two piers
here, remained silent on his
future plans. There have been
unconf1rmed reports that he
also is acquiring property in
Charles County.

The Lows Delay

Newspapermen just don't
have time to do the digging
to get some of the remark
able stories that occur In
this day and age.
One of them would be the
story Of A. w. Lafferty and
the O&C land cases. Mr..
Lafferty, who came here in
1911 from Oregon as a
member of the House of
Representatives, must have
achieved some sort of a
record for continuous litiga-
ton in these cases.
Memory suggests that
Dickens famous instance of
the laws delay in BLEAK
House." Jarndyce VS.. Jarn-
dyce, was before the Court
Of Chancery for 20 years.
Mr.. Lafferty (his full
name Is Abraham Walter
Lafferty) has been before
the courts in these cases for
longer than 40 years. Issues
in the cases have gone up
to the Supreme Court sew
eral times.
1t all has to do with the
ownership of public lands
set aside about a century ago
to encourage railroad con-
struction. The lands have
considerable value today and
one result of the litigation
was that 10 oregon counties
were awarded $40 million.
Then he had to sue for his
fee. Last month he received
a check for $4,000.
Il really should have
more" he says, but I'm
getting kind of old" He is 80.
Mr.. Lafferty, who seems to
have total recall, OCCASION
ally sends the Rambler
stories about the old days
in the House. He is under
the impression that a little
notice In the press doesn't
hurt him in the courts.
Here is one ON the debate
over a bill sponsored by
President Wilson to give
Great Britain free tolls
through the Panama Canal.
During the debate" Mr..
Lafferty writes, "a member
noted for his overindulgence
took the floor and referred
to the Minority Republican,
Leader, James r. Mann, as
the bewhiskered gentleman
from Illinois,
white with rage, Mr..
Mann arose and said:
Mr.. Speaker, I may be be-
whiskered, but I am not be-
xhiskied.' loud applause)."
