Imperoto, doughter of Freemen I. Imperoto of 82 89th St. ft' v. WNYC Attacked For 'Airing Fusion Medicine Shows7 Charges that the city's radio station, WNYC, is airing "nothing but Fusion medicine shows" at a cost of $125,000 a year "to disseminate political propaganda." were leveled today by Majority Leader Joseph T. Sharkey of the City Council.

Urging counciimanic action to limit the station's activities, Mr. Sharkey said that it serves as "Fusion's mouth organ" and its microphones are at the "personal beck and call of the Mayor on a 24-hour schedule." "Woe betide WNYC's yes-men if a mike is not at hand and time available whenever the Mayor wants to back-slap nis administration," Mr. Sharkey declared. Mr. Sharkey, a Brooklyn Democrat, noted with interest that all civic and independent groups who advocated the abolition of WNYC years ago were seated lacing the station's microphones at City Hall Monday evening when the Mayor announced his third-term candidacy.

Pointing out that in 1925 the Citizens Union, which wa represented at Monday night's broadcast, complained about Mayor John F. Hylan heaping "fulsome praise upon his policies" and that Supreme Court Justice Jeremiah T. Mahoney issued a permanent Injunction against the political use of this station, the counciimanic leader added: "Monday night we certainly heard the present Mayor heaping i some 'fulsome praise' upon the policies of what he pleases to call 1 'his non-political, non-partisan ad the greatest collection of political carpet-baggers, pious old reform frauds and young pany malcontents ever gathered at the public trough." "The Citizens Union heard and applauded. This same Citizens Union which foresaw WNYC as a vicious and expensive political instrument way back in 1925." Mr. Sharkey also took the Mayor to task about the letter's announcement to do away with a personal campaign manager and campaign treasurer.

He added that the Mayor "would be a fool to spend his owi money when the city treasury is paying for his radio time." "I can also understand the Mayor decision not to hire space i for campaign headquarters he much prefers the free-rent feature of his City Hall basement campaign i headquarters," Mr. Sharkey said. "I can forgive the Mayor and 1 program directors at WNYC to: their off-key symphonies, his Communist travelogues, his 'New York Advancing' comic operas and his yes-men commissioners trying keep up with the Mayor like a bunch of Keystone cops. "What I can't stand much longer is WNYC's constant Interruptions for the name of the program's sponsor Fiorello H. LaGuardia, Mayor of the City of New York.

It's the most overworked commer cial oh the air today," Mr. Sharkey concluded, 2 Boro Youths Assigned To Air Corps School Two Brooklynitex, regularly as signed to Mitchel Field, have been selected to attend the Army Air Corps technical school at Lowry Field, Denver.
