Castro threatens a \nasty reprisal: regular iamming of American radio stations.. Anxious broadcasters report that: A0 calm their fears, Administration briefers of- > fered a long menu of couh- termeasures, including \surgical strikes\ against any Cuban transmitters that engage in famming. If this was casual bluster, it is irresponsible. If deliberate, it's threatening an act of war. If the broadcasters misun- derstood, the Administration should say so, loudly. Radio Marti is a gimmick, designed mostly for domestic effect. Much of Cuba can already hear commercial broadcasts from Florida, and the Government's Voice of America beams Spanish- language programs to the island. More belligerent propaganda _ won't do anything more than appease some right-wingers in the Reagan caravan. This is not an enterprise that justifies \surgical strikes,\ and mere talk of them calls for something stronger than the State Department's oblique response that \It is not the policy of the Reagan Ad- ministration to bomb Cuba.\ In that case, is there a plan to send a MASH squad to ban- dage the transmitters, Christo-fashion? Or are surgeons to be sent to picket the offending installations? -NEW YORK TIMES NEW YORK (UPI) - Two million cheering New Yorkers celebrated the 100th birthday of a \local hero\ - the Brooklyn Tireworks\ 'tha brightened the landmark with shades of green, blue and red. More than 1.5 million people jammed into lower Manhattan for the fireworks finale that capped a daylong celebration Tuesday. About 650,000 people were across the East River on the Brooklyn side. Thousands more cheered from pleasure boats, rooftops and office buildingsoverlooking the bridge. President Reagan sent a message saying the bridge \is splendid and one of the greatest landmarks of our nation.\ His note was read by Mayor Ed Koch. ''To me, the Brooklyn Bridge is our local hero - it's Brooklyn's astronaut, baseball team and movie star all rolled into one,\ said Nina Liebman at one of the many rooftop parties. c.

State Suing Over Tonawanda Dump Site chemical waste - including dioxin, which is known to cause cancer - at about 14 locations on the 45-acre site. The chemicals were dumped over a 43-year period beginning in Abrams said the ground at the Durez site was particularly permeable, meaning the waste was more likely to seep into adjacent residential areas. The lawsuit asks Occidental Chemical Corp., Hooker's environment, and to clean up the site as well as any chemicals that have seeped into neighboring areas. It asks that Occidental be forced to pay $3G million for damage to the environment and to reimburse the state for any funds it has spent to clean up the area. ''The long-range health haz- ards of exposure to toxic chemicals are becoming more and more apparent,\ Abrams said. \I is imperative that government use its power to ensure a cleanup of eny hazardous site, especially one like this which is located in a residential area.\ En Con has ordered a namber of tests at Durez, and resalfsare expected in Septem- ber. However, Abrams said those tests were of a Emited nature, and Occidental should be reqaired to condact more complete testing.

Abandoned Northeasf’ By TOM CAMPBELL - BUFFALO, N.Y. (UPD - The federal government has abandoned the Northeast and the Reagan Administration has chosen to spend money on defenseratherthan the region's ailing industries, Gov. Mario Cuomo has charged. © Cuomo, who signed an agreement with Erie County officials Tuesday to buy its correctional facility in Alden, winds up a two-day trip to western New York today. He was to appear on a television 'talk show and meet with the Buffalo Teachers Federation before leaving for New York City. The governor told a group of about 450 people attending an economic forum in downtown Buffalo that \instead of re- industrializing the Northeast and cities like Buffalo,\ the federal government \wants to build the MX\ missle. Cuomo, meanwhile, also called for a partnership be- tween labor, business, lawmak- ers and academic leaders to help workers and the state make the change from auto and steel production to high tech- nology industries. In signing an agreement to buy the county jail, Cuomo said the state paid $48 million for the site and would spend another $20 million to renovate the structure that holds 799 inmates. Cuomo said the purchase \helps to some extent of relieving, congestion''~in 'the prison system, adding, \The people (of New York) have asked for tougher laws and we've responded. We need a place to put those people (offenders) away.\ Under the agreement, the state will pay the county in three installments, including $20 million this summer, when 200 of its total 799 beds will be made available to the state. A total of 592 inmates are currently housed there. The governor hoped the sale and reconstruction of the 57- year-old prison, that spreads out over 700 acres of land 30 miles east of Buffalo, would be financed through $150 million in bonds already approved by the Urban Development Corp. The prison sale has a dual effect, to ease inmate over- crowding in the state prison system and aid the economical- ly depressed area. County Executive Edward Rutkowski, who said Cuomo has \honored his commitment\ to help western New York, added the sale means the creation of $500 permanent jobs and another 2,500 temporary positions in ancilliary and construction jobs.

'Whateverybody is missing today, is that I get 200 cells in six weeks,\ he said. \You couldn't build 200 cells in sit weeks.\ Coughlin said state officials are also looking to renpvate a former police recreation center - at Tannersville in Greene County into another facility to help ease the overcrowding. Officials say the state's prison system is operating at 115 percent capacity. The rest of the Alden penitentiary will be turned over to the state when the final $28 million is paid to the county by 1%. In the meantime, the county is deciding whether to expand their downtown holding center or build a new county holding site near the Alden facility. Reagan, Moderate Democrats Engineer MX Win in House By PATRICIA KOZA WASHINGTON (UPI) - The crucial House vote to release $625 million for developing the MX missile can be attributed to two factors: tough lobbying by President Reagan and strong support from a handful of moderateDemocrats. The House, controlled by Democrats, voted, 239-186, Tuesday to free an estimated $65million for MX flight testing and $560 million in 1983 funds for engineering and develop- ment of the glant weapon. The Republican-led Senate is expected to follow sult today. A test vote in the Senate just sends an important signal to the world: Americans are uniting in a common search to protect our security, reduce the level of nuclear weapons and strengthen the peace,\ Reagan said, referring to the panel he created to study the issue after the December vote. Thecommission recommend- ed 100 MX missiles be based in existing Minuteman silos, but coupled that suggestion with two others: that a smaller, single-warhead missile be developed, and U.S. policy in arms control negotiations shift from counting missiles to counting warheads to discour- minutes before the House vote - age tise of multiple-warhead was concluded showed strong support for the 10-warhead weapon. Congress had withheld the funding last December when it rejected Reagan's \dense- pack\ basing plan and ordered him to develop a new one. The size of the victory margin in the House surprised both sides, who expected approval of the MX by only a few votes. Among those who cast \ayes\ were Democratic Leader Jim Wright of Texas and Democratic Whip Thomas Foley of Washington. Speaker Thomas O'Neill of Massa- chusetts did not vote. \I think the president's ve powers had a lot to do with it,\ said Rep. Jack Edwards, R-Ala. \It was an extremely crucial vote.\ Rep. Tom Downey, D-N.Y., a key MX opponent, said the anti- MX forces will mobilize during the Memorial Day weekend in an attempt to persuade House members who voted for the missile to change their minds. But he conceded the battle to stop the missile will be tougher because of the size of victory margin. \Had it been closer, it would have been better,\ he joined together to take a wise, courdgeous step forward for America.\ support by the Scowcroft Commission How New York Congressmen Voted On MX Funding WASHINGTON (UPI) - The MmaMmflmfl mindset-sum» tion releasing funds for deve lopmnert of the MX basing system.

SUNY Tuition to Go Up ALBANY, N.Y. (UPI) -- The State University's Board of Trustees is expected to approve a $300 increase in undergradu- ate tuition today, a jump opposed by students but sup- ported by the chancellor to forestall layoffs. The tuition schedule would apply to students attending SUNY 's2universities, colleges and health science centers. The $300 increase would apply to New York students, raising their tuition to $1,350 a year. Out-of-state undergradu- ates may expect tuition to jump by $300, to $2,650 a year. Graduate tuition for New York residents would rise $450, to $2,150, under the board's propasal, while non-resident graduate tuition would jump to $3.18 ~- a $1,000 hike. In formulating his executive budget proposal in January, Gov. Maric Cuomo - faced with an estimated $1.8 billion deficit - handed up a pared SUNY budget that called for a $30 general tuition hike plus a 250 faculty and staff would have to be laid off if propasal stood. Wharton came back with his own plan to raise im-state students' tition by $300.
