To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: I herewith submit a report of the following Class "B" Permit holder. An investigation concerning the opera- tion of this establishment since the permit was last issued has been made and is included in this report, together with my findings regarding the char- acter and record of this permit holder. Name: James (Barney) Hall. Address: 6S9 Central Avenue. Permit: No. 104 (Carl McDermott), Issued: August 18, 1939. History: The above named tavern operator operates a tavern at 6S9 Cen- tral Avenue, Dubuque, Iowa, known as Barneys Tavern. He is at the present time operating under Permit No. 104 issued to Carl McDermott which was transferred from 26S Main Street to the present address of 6S9 Central Ave- nue, as of the date of March 27, 1940. Previous to that time this same James Hall operated at this same address un- der Permit No. 94 issued to one Art Norton. Your Honorable body has been informed in open Council meeting of the trouble between Mr. Hall and Mr. Norton, which led up to the trans- fer of the McDermott permit to 6$9 Central Avenue. Mr. Hall has paid a consideration to Mr. McDermott for his, McDermott, Permit No. 104. On May 30th, 1940, one Max Young, a carnival worker, was arrested for tak- ing indecent liberties with a 16-year-old girl in the rear of the Ball Park on 4th Street $xtension. An inquiry into this matter revealed that this 16-year- old girl was either ill or intoxicated from having drank beer in Barneys Tavern and also in Barneys she met Regular Session, June 3rd, 1940. 125 this Max Young and from Barneys tavern proceeded to the carnival grounds. This same evening, May 30th, another girl of tender years was with the girl involved in the carnival grounds affair. Also it was learned that four girls 16 and 17 years of age on various occasions frequented Barneys Tavern and purchased beer therein and did so when this tavern operator was present. Sworn affidavits of these girls are also included in this report for your consideration. On May 31st, 1940, James (Bar- ney) Hall was arrested and charged with violating Par. 519-Sec, 31, name- ly, selling beer t ersonslly deg2leyears be consumed by p of age: On June 1, 1940, in the Police Court of the City of Dubuque, Mr. Hall pleaded not guilty to the charge, but was found guilty and fined $100.00 and costs of $3.50. He has, however, appealed his case, Your attention is also called to an amendment to the beer ordinance making it possible to buy another's business and secure a permit in one's own name, This amend- ment was passed, adapted and approved upon final reading the 13th day of May, 1940. Mr, Hall has made no ef- fort to effect the proper change. Your attention is also called to the probabil- ity of Mr. Hall's appeal not being heard iu District Court previous to the ex- piration date of Permit No, 104 which expires August 18th, 1940. Recommendations: Because of the disorderly conduct of James (Barney) Hall in operation of his Class "B" Tavern and of the above cited violation of law, and because of the previous trouble with Mr. Norton concerning this same tavern, and because Mr, Ball has made no effort to avail himself of the amendment to the beer ordinance and secure a permit in his own name, and also because a renewal for permit No. 104 will in all probability be made before this appeal will be acted upon by the District Court; and in behalf of better enforcement of the beer laws and better regulations of same; and in behalf of the moral health of our youth, I hereby recommend that the City Council proceed under the provisions of Sec. 1921.125, Code of Iowa and Paragraph 518, Sec. 30, Ordinance 9-35 making it mandatory that license No. 104 issued to Carl McDermott and now being used by James Hall, (having paid a consideration therefor) on Aug- ust 18, 1939, be revoked forthwith, If it shall appear that your honorable body cannot proceed under the above sections of law because of an appeal having been made which has not been disposed of you may proceed under Sec. 1921,129 Code of Iowa or Par. 517- Sec. 29, Ord. 9-35 City of Dubuque, Revocational Optional and again I rec- ommend that for the same cited rea- sons, this same permit No. 104 be re- voked forthwith. Respectfully submitted, JOS. H. STRUB, Chief of Police, City of Dubuque, Iowa.

Gentlemen: The matter of response of the City of Dubuque Fire Department to fires outside the corporate limits having been brought to the attention of the Council on a number of occasions, au effort has been made to secure data to aid the Council in studying the situa- tion. Attached hereto are copies of letters received from the Assistant Chief En- Ritteer of the National Board of Fire Underwriters, the Iowa Insurance Service Bureau, Fire Chief Wm. L. Ryan together with the Bulletin of the National Board of Fire Underwriters pertinent to the subject, Extra copies of the bulletin on "Response of fire departments to fires outside the cor- porate limits" are available for the council members. A study of the data submitted indi- cates that the extension of fire pro- tection outside the corporate limits will have a serious effect upon the deficien- Cies Charged against the city's fire de- fenses on the basis of the National Board's Grading Schedule and a cor- responding influence upon the fire in- surance rates which ^re based upon that classification. The question then resolves itself to this: "Are the citi- zens of Dubuque willing to ^^~~ more either in increased insurance premiums or increased taxes to provide fire pro- tection outside the corporate limits" Respectfully submitted, A. A. RHOMBERG, City Manager. Councilman Wharton moved that the communication of City Manager Rhom- berg be referred to the Council for their consideration at the meeting of July 1, 1940.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. lsentlemen: At the meeting of the City Council held June 3rd, .1940, the petition of I,eo J. Miller asking for a refund of in- terest and penalties in the amount of $27.00 paid on assessments levied against Lot 48 and the Westerly 10 feet of Lot 47 of Union Addition was referred to the City Manager and City 'treasurer for investigation and report. 1Ve have searched the records and find that the above described property was assessed $235.28 in the name of Ann Enright for the paving of Cleve- land Avenue on November 13, 1924. On March 23, 1925, the City Council reduced the assessment to $200.00 Be- cause Mrs. Enright was the widow of a Civil War Veteran and a warrant of $35.28 was drawn on the General Fund of the city to pay the difference. The 1928, 1929 and 1930 installments to- talling $78.77 were also paid -by the city. Mrs. Enright, deceased, was for a cumber of years a resident of St. Anthony's Home and after her death the St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital Cor- poration acquired the property in par- tial payment of the bill for care at the home. To effect the recent sale of the property to Leo J, and Celia Miller the remaining delinquent taxes and assess- ments were paid. Our search indicates that the City of Dubuque has absorbed a loss of almost otic-half in the collection of the assess- ments against the property in question. We, therefore, recommend that no re- fund be granted for special assess- ments paid on Lot 48 and the westerly 10 feet of Lot 47 of Union Addition and that the petition be received and filed. Respectfully submitted, A. A. RHOMBERG, City Manager OTTO F. PULS, City Treasurer Councilman Van Duelman moved that the recantmendation of City Manager Rhomberg and City Treasurer Puls be approved.
