Thief Repents Somewhat

LOUISVILLE, KY. (R.--Rob-
ert F. Swift walked out in his
backyard yesterday morning and
found his beagle hound. Spot,
tied to a tree.
: That was surprising, but Mr..
Swift would have been even more
surprised if he'd found his $50
shotgun there, too.
Both Spot and the shotgun
were stolen from Mr.. Swift's au-
tomobile Thanksgiving night.
Now Mr.. Swift is wondering how
the partially repentant thief
knew where to bring the dog.

ice Ore Rate Ruling
BY the Asseeioied Press

BALTIMORE, Feb. 18.-The
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
says it will take to the full In
terstate Commerce Commission.
and to the courts if necessary,
an appeal from an ICC decision
eliminating .Baltimore's lower
rates on iron ore shipments.
Division 2 of the ICC ruled
yesterday that carriers shipping
ore out Of Philadelphia to the
Great Lakes area could charge
the same rate as Baltimore. The
BIO called it "a serious blow to
the port of Baltimore"
The Baltimore rate on inland
shipments of ore has been 20
cents a ton cheaper than other
East Coast ports for the past
half century. and the railroad
said the 1CC ruling might well
be used as a precedent for fur
ther attacks on Baltimore's diff
ferential structure"
