them to prominent Brazilian

How does this make an i'm

Tawes' anti-slot machine legis-

test.
This unusual custom, called
Legislative courtesy" allows q
county to exempt itslef from
legislation that it does not like
All the lawmakers from q
county have to do is amend a
bill to make it ineffective in
their area.
1t requires a majority vote to
exempt Q county, but the vote
is almost always there in the
Maryland Legislature, which
subscribes heavily to the phi
losophy Of you scratch my

When it comes to anti-slot
machine legislation though
something has got to give. And
II Gov. Tawes' bill to prohibit
racial discrimination in hotels
and restaurants has not cleared
the Assembly by the time the
lawmakers get down to work or

the action on slot legislation
could affect the anti discrimi-
nation bill.

counties woul5 like to keep the

Obviously, the Legislature
could not exempt the four
counties from the slot machine
bill. To do so would make the
bill meaningless.
Delegate Henry Fowler, Dem
ocrat Of st. Marys. which Is one
of the counties where slots are
legal, said he will seek to ex-
empt his county from the anti
slot bill.
The question then will be-:
Will lawmakers from other
counties allow the slot machine
counties to exempt themselves
from that bill as they did on
the anti discrimination bill?
If not, how can 1t be justified
in one instance and not In the
