 Tangle Among Members
 Of Board Of Education

that the majority members being the Republicans in the Board, meet with the minority members. for the purpose of appointing a Democratic member to fill the vacancy caused by the death, last, October, of Dr. George w. Os- born
 The Republican members are: Dr. Alfred C. Tones, William Webster, Howard Challenger and Mrs. Mary E. Cutting.
 Tfa Democratic members are Dr. Ed ward F. McGovern, Owen Burns and Lynn Wilson.
 After the respective side had failed to agree upon procedure, the Demo- crats demanded,-that the Republicans meet with them as members of the Board of Education and proceed to fill the vacancy. The Republicans re- fused to do this. but met as the Board of Education, elected officers and transacted other business.
 It has since been maintained that the election was not legal for lack of a majority.
 The Republicans assert that four members of the board, which they as sert consists of only seven members. one of whom is dead. The Democrats assert that a majority is five members, and that the board consists of eight members as designated by law, and that a maj ocity must be of eight and not of seven.

Alderman Ralph T. Beers, spokes- man for the Republican members of the Board of Aldermen, and other Republican leaders today intimated desire to dtgress from their earlier de- termination to insist the appearance of Town Chairman John A.

Comments of any nature wer not forthcoming, and cf1e general feeling in Republican cir c1es was to let tle entire matter die statement to the effect that Ihe Re pubHcans were willing to drop their demands for a thorough investtga ion would not be made, the sentiment was press the master further.
 In reply to demands that he un- cover whatever evidence he possessed to support the startling charges made tt Monday nights mee tng of the board. Mir. Cornell said today:
 ''The object I set out to accomplish has been accomplished. If there Is anyone in Bridgeport who wishes to she ma me of one Iof his fellow citizens in the mud and subJecting him to criminal prosecution, then he can as- sune the responsibility by making the ing officials for an investigation.
 ''If he Republicans in the council or Alderman Beers resent the 1npu- tations that have been made. they nave d1 1lNSSl4SdLIHS COIIIIilAItOS appointed 70 properly investigate.
 This, believe, they will not do.'
 Alderman Beers was approached as the representative of the Repub Hoan aldermen, but refused to make any statement and had no comment to make whatsoever.
 Chairman Cornell has adopted the determined attitude that he will nos. be responsible for the prosecution of the man involved in the bribe. That he has the evidence, there now seems no doubt, but he refuses to voluntarily ask for criminal prosecution. insofar
