Netanyahu pledged that "the gov-crnmenl that we will form, will) God's help, in the coming days will strengthen the connections that have already been made with the Jordanian kingdom and with Egypt," and that he will con'inue negotiations with Ihe Palestinians. Significantly, Netanyahu did not mention Syria, with which Israel has been engaged in on-again, off-again negotiations since 1991. Syria demands that Israel give up the Golan Heights, captured in 17 war, as a basic condition of peace; Netanyahu has said he would never do so. Sunday night, Netanyahu said only that "we will act to advance peace agreements and coexistence with additional Arab states." He also made no direct reference to the Palestine Liberation Organization, Israel's partner in the West Bank and Gaza accords. PLO peace negotiator Hassan Asfour reacted angrily to the omission.

Netanyahu said Sunday that "the state of Israel embarks today on a new road, a road of hope, a road of unity, a road of security, a road of peace. "And the first and most important peace that must be made is peace at home, peace among us and peace within us that is our most important KTAXTASt from vr A I tumbled Thurvky at ihe new of hit elation. tone itntnmanlike, and at one point, he chided ihe crowd for jeering hen he offered words of praive for the defeated prime minister.

Netanyahu's speech dealt only in generalities, and he offered few clues as to how he would proceed in negotiations with the Palestinian, which have recently entered their most sensitive phase.

In the coming weeks, however, he will face test of his commitment to Israel's pledge to withdraw its troops from Palestinian cities on the West Hank. The treaty was signed by Peres' Credecessor, Yitzhak Rabin, and Peres as completed withdrawals from all major population centers except Hebron, where 450 Jewish settlers live amid 94,000 Arabs. Peres deferred the move until after the election, and his Cabinet said Sunday that it would leave the decision to Netanyahu, whose Likud hackers oppose the pullout.

Caught up in the excitement of QUICK RELIEF FOR THE SLOW BURN-N-N OF HEMORRHOIDS. their victory, several senior Likud party figures said over the weekend that Netanyahu had already decided lo carry out his campaign pledge to close Orient House, which serves as the unofficial headquarters of the Palestinians in east Jerusalem.

The owner, Southern Pacific Railroad, estimated it would cost S25.7 million to improve the line, and $2.5 million annually to keep it in good repair.

Amtrak didn't have the money for the costs, and, despite efforts to interest local government agencies, no buyers came forward. The track, which could be ripped up next year, includes the stretch of rail where an Amtrak train was derailed in October. The FBI suspects sabotage, but no arrests have been made. Amtrak will not abandon Phoenix. It will still operate a full-service station at Union Station, 401 W.

Harrison St. But instead of running rail to Tucson, it will ferry passengers in a shuttle bus. From there, passengers can board the westbound or eastbound Sunset Limited. Late this summer, Amtrak hopes to have a rail stop completed at Maricopa, so Valley travelers will not have to drive as far to pick up a train. To Peoria resident Lloyd Clark, the end of passenger service is an abomination.

"Movers and shakers in the Phoenix metropolitan area can generate millions of dollars to promote sports arenas and events, but when it comes to a mode of travel that is energy-efficient, comfortable, handicapped accessible and reasonably priced, they appear unconcerned," Clark said in a statement he distributed at Union Station on Sunday night. Clark was among the dozens of people who showed up at Union Station to watch the last Amtrak arrive and depart. He lined up the singer and trumpeter to mark the melancholy end of rail service. After two choruses of Auld Lang Syne, the last boarding call went out. As the train began to move at 9:16 p.m., Dr.

Terry Wood, a Mesa pediatrician, hoisted his trumpet and played taps. A conductor started to close a coach-class door, turned toward the crowd on the platform, and gave the Sunset Limited's farewell. "Goodbye, Phoenix," he said, as the train pulled west into the night. Tucson. "The last sunset on the Sunset Limited to Phoenix." It fixed the moment for the passengers, most of whom were oblivious to the fact that they were riding into a page of local history.

With the Sunset Limited's arrival at downtown Union Station at 8:30 p.m. sharp, Phoenix ended a history of rail service that began July 4, 1887. And it further solidified its dependence on the automobile. Sunday's run was Amtrak's last into Phoenix, making it the largest metropolitan area without passenger-rail service. Phoenix's local mass-transit inadequacies are widely acknowledged.

"We're knocking Phoenix off the map, in a sense," observed Leonard Fox, as he mulled over the implications of Sunday's last trip. Fox, of London, had no idea of the significance of his trip when he boarded the Sunset Limited in Austin. But a handful of passengers made the Tucson-Phoenix trip expressly to mark the end of an era.
