which could cor- be entitled The Phan tom Writes Again Thus it was in the case of three major speeches at the re cent Board of Trade meeting given by Mayor Rose the rec- tor of Trinity Anglican church and Dr The Mayor and Dr gave positive opposition to the installation in Aurora of liquor and beer out lets and the rector questioned the motives of the sponsors and requested that they cast aside their anonymity and put their names on the record To the reporting of what were generally described as three vary fine speeches the Banner gave only seven lines of print This was not only smothering the news it was murdering it When the news suits it the Banner becomes heady with headlines when the news doesnt suit it it be comes dumb Without Aurora News Pages the citizens of Aurora would not

written in in ink In addition to that voters whose name did not appear on the printed list might if be sworn at a polling sta tion and vote Obviously their names would not appear on the list Equally obviously they were not as the headline sug gests people without a vote Included also were a number of now residents who will be qualified to vote on May is a moot point as to whe ther those who voted
