Allouple Bhargetl For iKidnapping Dog ‘ I

I NEW YORK, Feb. ll - (AP) - A Bronx couple today was charg- ed with disorderly conduct after police said they "kirlniippctl" their dog from all American Society tor the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani- mals shelter B few hours before its scheduled execution.

The couple, August Marrone, 41, and his wife. Nettie. 35, refused to say where they had hidden tlic dog, police sol-d, explaining they planncti to seek a court order stay- iiii: execution. They contended that if they had not. taken the dog tlttcourt order would have been too a e.

The dog, a four-iti-qir-old named Scout, served in the United States | Army Dog Service during the wtiiai ~ Police said the animal was sched-' tiled to he executed because it. hud

1. The Railway Act pruvide5| that. any altcratlons in rates are to be madc individually und that schediilcs indicating specific rutc changes must bi- filed when they are sought. ,

2. The Act provides that. where tliarc is doubt. ovcr Jurisdiction, the issue should be settled by the courts.

3. Parliament did not intend to

4. The increase sought is so large and wide that it enters the realm of taxation. a matter for Parliament flIOhl‘.

5. Specifically. the Board is barred from granting gi-neral ad- vanccs In spccial and competitive rates.

6. The method bclng followed by tho THIIWHYS iii the application was culculntcd to deprive shippers. consignees and other parties of the right to object to specific in- creases.
