Shapp Plans Court Bid to Halt Rail Merger
Democratic candidate Milton J. Shapp outlined a twofold strategy to block the Pennsylvania New York Central rail merger slated for August first. He will seek ICC reconsideration on June 27 and, if denied, move to the courts before July 28 for an injunction to suspend the merger pending litigation. Shapp reaffirmed Pennsylvania’s opposition and discussed potential stock actions related to his Jerrold CATV holdings while opposing birth control funding restrictions.
