The program would allow the "ity to impose certain additional lxes only if by July 1 a transit uthorlty is created which would ike over the lines and a S50 nillion transit deficit. If the City rejects Mr. Dewey's >lan and decides to follow one >f its own, the City could not e.vy these new taxes without •tate approval. Mayor Vincent R. Impellitteri ^esterday criticized the Dewey orogram. He added. N'. Y. Mayor Blue> "I" don't know what we can lo." The Mayor, who addressed policemen at their Holy Name Society's annual communion breakfast, said the Dewey program will result in essential city services being "cut to the bone." Mr. Impellitteri said r e d u c t i o n s would affect school and hospital construction, and would mean fewer appointments to the Police, Fire a n d Sanitation Departments. Mr. Impellitteri reiterated that the city's financial plight is not due to waste and inefficiency, but was caused by postwar inflation. Shortly after Mr. Impellitteri's talk, the possibility of new financial troubles loomed from the direction of the CIO Transport Workers Union and its president, Michael J. -Quill. Mr. Quill sent telegrams to Mr. Dewey and Mr. Impellitteri asking them to meet with TWU leaders to clarify the "muddled transit situation" and to discuss "matters of vital importance to the transit workers and the riding public." The Quill telegrams said issues on the agenda of the proposed meetings should include, among others, "Hastily drafted economy -profx>s«ls1by-the~BoanI~of Trans^ portation" and "immediate negotiations for a 2icents-an-hour wage increase to meetf the rising living cost." Mass layoffs and curtailment of services are included in the Transportation Board's proposals. Mr. Quill sajd. Mr. Quill's pay increase proposal, it was reported, would add $25 million to $30 million to the transit deficit. Manhattan Borough President Robert F. Wagner Jr. called on the City to "stand up and fight it (Dewey's program) to the end." * City Council President Rudolph Halley said he would ask the City Corporation Counsel to institute a law suit to block Mr. Dewey's program.
