I-MS6 Measure Designed for Crippled Students of Non-Public Institutions The ghost of the Kelly-Corbett bill walked last night in the hall of the Board of Education as another attempt to gain free transportation for other than public school children was lost by a strict party vote, 3 to 3. A resolution proposed by Walter Jeffreys Carlin, Brooklyn board member, providing for the transportation of physically handicapped children attending non-public free schools licensed by the Board of Regents failed to pass when the three attending Fusion members voted against it. Vote Is Deadlocked Colonel Carlin, Mrs. Margaret McAleenan and President George J. Kyan, Tammany appointees, voted aye.

Henry C. Turner, Brooklyn member; James Marshall and Dr. Alberto C. Bonaschl, three of the Fusion majority of four, deadlocked the vote and the resolution was lost. Ellsworth B.

Buck, fourth Fuslonist, was acseni. The Board of Estimate last Sum mer urged the passage of an en abling statute by the Board of Edu cation to permit the operation of such a service. Doubtful of its constitutionality the board sought the opinion of Corporation Counsel Paul Windels. Colonel Carlin, In his resolution. declared that Mr Windels had termed the procedure constitutional, Mr.

Turner, praised the resolution for its "humaneness," but said the Corporation Counsel had not an swered the constitutionality aues. tion and that he, for one. Questioned its legality. Dr. Bonaschl and Mr.

Marshall echoed Mr. Turner's views and voted in opposition with him. While the resolution would have provided the transportation for nanaicapped children only, the parallel with the Kelly-Corbett measure, passed by the Legislature last year, was immediately apparent, Was Vetoed by Lehman The latter bill, which would have provided State-financed transportation for students of parochial and ottier free schools, was vetoed by Governor Lehman In the midst ot a storm of protest. A relieious over. tone characterized the discussion at the time of the veto when it was pointed out that the bill's adoption woum nave cnieny Denefited Cath olic school children.

The establishment of a character training project, recommended by the Board of Superintendents, to be operated in certain junior high schools by the New York State Chamber of Commerce was disapproved following an unfavorable report by me committee on instructional ac tivities. The project, which would have been taught by teachers other than those employed by the Board of Education, had been favorably com' mented on by Associate Superin tendent John S.
