Herbert admitted last night that he had stripped Mr. Crook's department of its powers, but told the Asbury Park Press that Mr. Crook had done the same to him when he was Public Affairs and Public Safety chairman. Mr. Crook abstained fom voting when his colleagues last night authorized buying a $14,804 fully-equipped fire truck from New Jersey Fire Equipment Corpora- FRElGIlf From Page 1 each year "defers" needed maintenance except for absolutely-necessary repairs.

He said the railroad has spent an average of $3,950 a year on upkeep of the line. Ernest R. Varalli, a cost analyst for the railroad, said the railroad isn't even meeting expenses. Figures admitted into evidence showed the railroad made 17 trips between Farmingdale and Sea Girt the first nine months of this year. On these 17 trips the freight locomotive pulled a total of 19 cars.

The line serves four customers. Mr. Varalli testified the railroad is operating at an annual deficit of $8,037 a year, and if the line is abandoned it would result in an operating saving of $6,741. L. C.

Neff, superintendent of freight stations in this area, said that if the line is abandoned the customers could be best served by trucks. 1 The firms using the line are the Royal Pottery Manasquan; I. M. Thompson Coal Manasquan; J. D.

Fiemster Coal Ailenwood, Wall Township, and W. F. Sherman Son Millwork, Manasquan. "Until May 1962 the line was used for the "Doodlebug," a one-car passenger train connecting the Shore with Freehold and Trenton. Service Eliminated The Pennsylvania Railroad, after a series of hearings, finally got permission to eliminate this service because it was losing money.

When "Doodlebug" died, the railroad also disconnected the rarminfrlalp-Sea Girt line from mat it may be a year before Chief Justice Earl Warren's commission finishes investigating the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The predictions followed disclosure by government sources that threads from the shirt of Lee Harvey Oswald, the accused assassin, were found snagged on the rifle which authorities say was used to kill Kennedy as he rode in a Dallas motorcade Nov. 22. The government sources al-o reported yesterday that Oswald's palm print was found on the rifle And they said some latent fingerprintsidentified as Oswald's were lifed by FBI technicians from wrapping paper which hid the rifle when it was carried into the Dallas text book depository building where Oswald worked.

As the Warren commission continued its study of a five-volume FBI report on the assassination, a friend of the chief justice predicted the commission's work will not be completed for "a good many months at least. Mr. Warren moves with all deliberate speed, but he doesn't cut a single corner." Another official said it won't bother the White House if the commission takes a year, adding: "Nobody wants a quickie job. President Johnson made that clear in creating the commission." There was evidence from Mr. Warren himself that the commission considers the massive FBI investigation report, delivered to the seven commission members Monday night, just the starting point for its task.

Within 24 hours Mr. Warren announced the appointment of a general counsel, former U.S. Solicitor General J. Lee Rankin, as the first step in providing the commission with a staff. The report as it reached Mr.

Warren was known to indicate that Oswald, 24, committed the assassination without accomplices, and that Oswald had no connection with Jack Ruby, 52, the Da'-las night club owner who killed Oswald two days later. Board Receives Bids for Blinds EATONTOWN The Board of Education at a special meCng last night received seven bids to supply Venetian blinds for th' Meadowbrook School being built on Wyckoff road.

An ordinance, requiring that all outdoor swim pools be fenced in, was introduced and scheduled for public hearing at 4 p.m. Dec. 23, The Board will meet then instead of its usual time which falls on Christmas Lve.

Name Change Tabled A suggestion from Mr. and be renamed in honor of the late President John F. Kennedy was filed for further consideration. Also to be considered is Mr. Crook's suggestion that the borough ballfield be renamed Memorial Field with a plaque honoring Mr.

STOCKTON From Page 1 1st avenue can be used for private residential development another one third is regularly wathed by tides the remaining one third is washed and eroded by recurrent beach storms and high tidal waters Any development of the center one third would require the protection afforded by the installation of a costly sea wall." Four members of the board had resigned two months ago because they wanted an impartial group to rule on the Stockton variance. Refrains From Voting The fifth member, Lestor Nay-lor, did not resign but disqualified himself from voting on the Sotck-ton variance. The four men that replaced the former board members were appointed by the Council with Mayor Doyle breaking a tied-vote. The board recommended that the Council grant the variance with 12 conditions.

Among the restrictions are clauses aimed at insuring the new hotel will not become an apartment house as several objectors feared. The board stipulated that "the building shall contain no facilities commonly referred to as efficiency apartments or Pullman apartments," and that, "there shall be no renting of unfurnished rooms, suites or apartments." Adequate Parking Required The board also stiuplated that there be sufficient off street parking for employes and guests. The resolution provided that a building permit for the new hotel must be made within 180 days after the Council votes. Demolition of the old hotel must start within 30 days after the permit is issued. If the Council votes as it did Variances granted Aug.

7, 1962; April 9, 19T.2, and last July 23 were ruled invalid by the Superior Court because of board action in voting. Mr. Palmieri told the board that the new hotel would be U-shaped, five stories high and face 1st avenue, as does the present hotel. There would be four elevators, an ndoor swimming pool, four shops for guests, a bar and restaurant, windows on the ocean side. "The public benefits of a 12-month operation of the new Stockton Hotel outweigh the de- triments," the board's resolution stated.

Yule Card Same TSoiv ASBURY PARK "People sending Christmas cards today at the 5 cent first class pay the same to mail Christmas greetings as Americans did well over a century ago," Postmaster Wig-dortz noted today. "Research shows that in 1847 the Post Office Department issued its first stamps, including a nickel stamp for the basic prepaid letter rate," Postmaster Wigdortz said. "And, of course, in those days a nickel could buy a meal where it usually can't even buy a cup of coffee today," Mr. Wigdortz pointed out. "Since 1932," the postal executive observed, "while living costs for the American family have skyrocketed considerably more than 100 per cent the cost of mailing a first-class letter has only increased by two cents or two-thirds." The postmaster's comments were made in connection with a recommendation to Asbury Park residents to use the first class 5 cent Christmas stamp on their Christmas cards.

The stamp portrays the National Christmas Tree on the "Eastern Ellipse" in the nation's capital. The 5-cent rate permits forwarding or return of the letter where necessary, allows the use of a handwritten message on the card adding a personal touch and also provides speedier handling and faster delivery, particularly for cards going out-of-town. Woman's Death Ruled Natural RARITAN TOWNSHIP Monmouth County Physician Dr. Julius A. Toren ruled after an autopsy yesterday that Mrs.

Frances O'Donnell, Central died of natural causes. Mrs. D'Donnell was found unconscious with face cuts and bruises on a street near Route 36 Saturday night. She died Monday at Monmouth Medical Center, Long Branch, without regaining consciousness. Mrs.

O'Donnell was found at Route 36 and Central avenue. She was taken to the hospital by the Raritan Township First Aid Squad.

Postage as 1847 "In recent years, people have been buying better and more expensive greeting cards and it seems a shame, when only 4-cent third class postage is paid and the addressee has moved that we normally can not even forward the card," Mr. Wigdorz commented. "To avoid trouble and waiting in line, I suggest that two full sheets of the Christmas stamp 100 to the sheet be picked up when at the post office, and then there is no last-minute panic about getting stamps to put on cards to send to those who have been overlooked or added to the list." Christmas stamps, of course, are usable for postage at any time, Mr.

Wigdortz emphasized. To aid in the purchase of stamps and mailing of parcels the post office hours have been extended to provide extra window service for the public. Until Dec. 23, the hours will be from 7 a.m., to 7 p.m. daily and on Sundays the hours will be from 1 p.m.

Mr. Patterson was the second speaker in the winter lecture series sponsored by the library Board of Trustees. About 30 persons attended last night's lecture.

Mr. Patterson, who has an extensive record collection, played records of compositions of Shore musicians and performances by musicians from the area. He lo played several old records, some dating back to 1904, of famous artists who sang at the Ocean Grove Auditorium at the turn of the century. The Friends of the Library cooperates with the Board of Trustees in sponsoring the lecture series. STATE From Page 1 an agreement with Pennsylvania Railroad to allow the railroad to continue freight operations on the line to serve future industrial needs.

Mr. Cottrcll said the nronos.il would allow the Pine Creek Divi sion to provide a ride of substan tial length while at the same time permitting the railroad to continue freight service without losing money. Stumbling block for the idea is the question of who would maintain the right-of-way. Mr. Cottrcll said the state wants the railroad to maintain the line for one year after which the transportation museum would assume maintenance.

The transportation museum is building a narrow-gauge rail line with 1,800 feet of track at Allaire State Park, which adjoins the railroad's line. A "railroad" known as the Pine Creek division has been operated since 1949 in Marlboro Township by a group of railroad enthusiasts. Through efforts of the transportation museum the Pine Creek Railroad is moving to Al laire where it is to begin operation in the spring. Mr. Cottrcll said the idea is to add a standard-gauge operation with old-type steam locomotives.

He said as far as he knows this is the first proposal to have New Jersey take over a railroad. He added, however, the state of West Virginia has bought a logging railroad and run it as a tourist attraction. He said it was so successful that West Virginia intends to expand its railroading operations next vear.

Mr. Newkirk reported three men grabbed him as he was walking on Mattison avenue near Railroad avenue about 6:30 p.m. Monday, choked him, and took the money. He reported the incident yesterday morning. Quick reference to reliable craftsmen Directory of Services, RANSOM From Page 1 Patrolman Jones said the youth told him he had been blindfolded since his abduction.

"He never saw any place or any of the guys who kidnaped him," the patrolman said, "but thinks there were three. He said he thought they were a txmc'. of amateurs, the way they operated." Father Talks to Son Sinatra who flew here from Reno last night after being contacted about a ransom, said he had talked to his son twice while the boy was being held once on Monday and again about 9 a.m. Tuesday. "They wouldn't let me talk with him long," the father said.

"I asked him if he was comfortable and he said he was okay. "But you know they took him away without any socks. He just had a T-shirt and a parka. That's about as cruel as anything I can think of." "I don't know if he was kidding me, but he mentioned riding around in a lot of trunks. I think he meant they transferred him in the trunk of a car." Dr.

Rex Kennamer emerged from the Sinatra house at 5:15 a.m. to discuss Frank condition with reporters. In 'Good Shape "The boy is in good shape; he's not injured in any way," said the Beverly Hills physician who has also ministered to Gary Cooper and Elizabeth Taylor. "He's in bed now and resting well. No harm has been done to him." Dr.

Kennamer said that young Sinatra had been given some pills during his capture and that he slept part of the time. The doctor added that he wanted Frank to sleep as long as possible. At one time during the night, about 50 newsmen and photog-rapers were gathered at the foot of the driveway outside Mrs. Sinatra's home. It was chilly, so Sinatra sent a waiter out with coffee.

The waiter also brought turkey sandwiches, olives, pickles, and cheesecake. Jack Entratter, a friend of Sinatra said in Reno, that the kidnapers twice contacted the bov's father at the Mapes Hotel in Reno. Sent to Gas Station The second time, Entratter they "told him to go to Ron's gas station in Carson City. Sinatra arrived there at 12:45 p.m. Tuesday and the attendant, who was prettv surnrised.

told him: 'Someone's been calling you here. I thought it was a "But it was no gag. The contact man for the kidnapers then called again either at Ron's or a nearby gas station, I'm not sure which and told Frank that he should go to Los Angeles and he'd be contacted there. "That was the reason for Frank's hurried flight last night to Los Angeles." Mr. Entratter said the abductors evidently had decided to work through Mrs.

Sinatra. Fake Story Told When Sinatra left for Los Angeles. Mr. Entratter said, "we had to say he was going down there just to comfort his formT wife and children because the FBI did not want any sort of leak." There had been no breaks in the case since young Frank was hustled from his motel room at Lake Tahoe Sunday night by two gunmen who burst in and demanded money. The youth, whose ambition is to pursue a career like his father's, was at the mountain lake resort on the California-Nevada border for a casino singing engagement.

He was about to leave his room to do a show when he was abducted. Monday and Tuesday the FBI plus California and Nevada law officers combed the rugged High Sierra area for clues. At one point six persons were arrested in a cabin. Two prison pscanees had been sought for questioning in the case but were found fo have no connection with it. The Sinatra case involved one of the- most famous names in a kidnap since that involving the W-momh-old son of Charles A.

Lindbergh. The boy was kidnaped March .1, 1932 and found dead Mav 12 after his aviator father naid $50,000 to Bruno Richard Hauptmann, 35. Hauptmann later was electrocuted. The Sinatra ransom also was among the paid in this rnuntrv in 75 years. The largest is believed to be $600,000 for Pohert C.

The city manager has sent letters to 180 taxpayers who owe a total of $179,786 in 1963 taxes asking them to pay the taxes by the end of 1963. Each of the property owners owes more than $400 in 1963 taxes. "I am sure you are aware of the fact that failure on the part of a number of taxpayers to meet their current obligations on time resulted in an increased reserve for uncollected taxes in 1963," Mr, Lee said.

"This reserve must be included in the regular budget and if there is a further increase in the reserve for uncollected taxes, the tax rate will increase" In 1062, the reserve for uncollected taxes was $346,600. The reserve vas increased in 1963 to $127.0.12.
