New York, July 20.. William Zeckendorf, Pre- sident of Webb and Knapp, Inc., said today the realty firm had "found it impos sible to finance" its pro- posed $66 million 48-

Mr Zeckendorf said "despite valiant efforts" it was apparent
that additional financial support for the venture was not forth-
coming. The proposed hotel
