Until his retirement five years ago Mr. Recitalist Public Forum Wilmette, Illinois. Wednesday P. ~f. April 10, 1929. Editor, WILMETTE LIFE, As a candidate for public office at the election to be held April 16, I feel that some explanation should be offered to the many supporters whose nam es -appear upon the petition signed in b ehalf of my candidacy for the office of village trustee. The petition was duly filed with th e village clerk on Saturday, Mar.kh 30, 1929. I am · inform ed that in consequence of certain supposed legal objections the pf'tition has been, or will be, set aside by the village clerk. Cpon intimation that the questi on of validity had been raised, I sought legal advice. A copy of the finding s of my attorney I left with the village clerk, Lea ]. Orr. on Saturday last, with the reque st that I be similarly favored with a copy of the findings of an¥ properly organized body duly authorized by law to pass upon the questions involv~d, that the case might be reconciled under proper legal authority. Cp to the time of this writing, \\redncsday evening, April lOth, 1929. my reque st has not been complied with. \Vh:r? M\' candidacy for office ,,·as prompted by the request of two repre sentatiYe bodies of voters to fill a ne ed for representation for an extensin~ area in which hundreds of thousand-; of dollars are to be expended for public improvement within the administration p_eriod of those members of the board to he elected to office on April l o. The fairmindedness of the manv signer s of my petitio n of nominatio11, from all parts of the village, does, without question, endorse the right of thi s we stern area t o adequate renresentation. I am therefore placing - the matter before the citizens of Wilmette that the~' may go to the polls on April 16th fully in formed. and in so doing T rest assured and confident that right will prevail. Three trustees are to be elected. If mv name is withheld from the ballot, -I am informed that each and every voter has the right to write m~· name on the ticket and then vote for one. two, or three trustees in the usual way. If this is done, the circle at the head of the ticket should not be used . All that is asked is that fair and adequate representation be had for an area equal in size to the whole of the older nortion of the village. Yours very truly, Arthur Lee, West Lake avenue, Wilmette.
