J. 07602 4 10 CENTS ISO ERIE TO ADD NEW SERVICE I ID SUKARNO GIVES I POWER PRESIDENT General Suharto To Make Executive Decisions Jakarta (UPI) President Sukarno today gave up his struggle to retain a vestige of command in Indonesia and turned over all executive power to Army strongman General Suharto. Sukarno's stepdown was not a full resignation but was a surrender of executive powers.

He will remain President vss so i :v.l in name only. Information Minister B. H. Diah read newsmen a statement containing Sukarno's capitulation. In it, Sukarno said he had decided to give up the powers of the Presidency after realizing what he called the current conflict.

Sukarno's position had been crumbling since the abortive Communist attempt in October .1965 to overthrow the Government. He had been largely a figurehead President for several months, with power held by Su- beads for class on Washington's Birthday. It was the only public school open today in Rockland County.

Thecommuter dilemma seemed a bit less black with the announcement that the Erie-Lackawanna Railroad will add 14 more trains, seven in each direction, to its Main Line for runs between this station and Hoboken.

The service will go into operation at midnight April 30. Commuters, who depend primarily on individual car travel to get into the metropolitan area each morning, were given Monday the alternative of express bus service with the inauguration of the Ramapo Flyer by the Rockland Coaches Inc. First reports on the Flyer, making four 1-hour runs in the morning and four in the afternoon, show that bus service is proving very successful. The Erie trains are among 18 to be added under a renegotiat ed contract between the State of New Jersey and the floundering railroad line which reduced service from 56 to 33 trains last October. The new trains will bring to 32 the number of east and westbound trains on the Main Line and to nine eastbound and 10 westbound trains on the Bergen Line, which runs from Allendale to the terminal at Hoboken.

The tentative schedule calls for addition for seven eastbound trains leaving the Suffern station at 8:17, 9:30 and 11 A. M. and 1, 2, 6:30 and 10:15 P.

Mundt launched his attack although the other Supervisors seemed to give up any hope of saving the mansion, the razing of which the Governor had baited a year ago. "Now the election is over.

He also criticized lack of action on a Dledse to give Rockland representation on the Palisades Interstate Park Commission which owns the High Tor State Park in which the mansion is located.

Wirth said that a misunder standing had resulted in the Ad Hoc Committee's assuming the P. I. P. C. would bear the costs of rehabilitating the mansion for a junior museum.

Ward, a number of people had complained to him. They said, according to Ward, that when they called the Superintendent's office, they were told that the decision to hold classes today was mandated by a decision of the Board that the administration had no choice in the matter. When Ward heard this, he became angry, and fired off a letter to Board President Francis A.

Goetschius. Ward was to be out of town when the Board met Monday night, and he wanted the Board to know how he felt. He didn't realize, he said last night, that Goetschius would read the letter aloud. No copy of the letter was available. But Ward explained that he was angry because the public was being told the axing of the Washington Birthday holiday was a Board decision, which it was not.

Lodico saw the code as the fii'it step toward licensing of workers in other trades, and predicted that its adoption would lead to a union monopoly in the trades within 15 years.

Slocum added that he has reservations on the bill, but he did not detail them.
