JOHN STUBER,
Clerk Board of Review.
Dubuque, Iowa, May 20, 1920.
To the Honorable Board of Review
Of the City of Dubuque.
Gentlemen:—
I, Charles A. Wright, one member
of three members constituting the
Board of Review for the City of Du-
buque, pursuant to my duties as a
member of your Honorable Body,
and desirous of fulfilling my obliga-
tions and oath of office to the best
of my ability and in as far as I am
able, do hereby submit a minority re-
port, which you will please file with
your Honorable Body.
I am pleased to have had the hon-
or of being chosen and entrusted by
our newly elected council to serve on
the Board of Review for the City of
Dubuque, anr; I desire to express my
appreciation of the fine manner and
unity of spirit with which you gen-
tlemen hav' worked with me up to
dale.
We have agreed perfectly on the
increased assessments of some fif-
teen hundred tax payers, and I was
in hopes we would be able to con-
tInue our work straight through to
the end without any great diversion
of opinion, regarding the raising or
lowering of assessments.
However, I find it is impossible for
me to agree with you gentlemen on
the present assessments placed upon
certain corporations and businesses
of the City of Dubuque. I am sorry
indeed that after much discussion
and controversy we find our figures
so widely apart that it would make
this report necessary. I therefore
deem it imperative, in view of my
obligations and oath of office, to rec-
ommend the following raises of as-
sessments on the following corpora-
tions and businesses.
I believe it is my duty as a citizen,
a taxpayer and a member of your
Honorable Bony to stand by what I
believe to be fair and equitable as-
sessment for the corporations anti
businesses in question.
The changes I wish to recommend
are as follows, and in the absence of
inventories:

Dubuque, Iowa, May 21, 1920.
Whereas, ithas been suggested to
this board that drastic increases be
made in the personal property as-
secsments of tha city's manufactur-
ing institutions;
We find that the Code of Iowa ex-
pt^ssly vides that machinery for
purposes of taxation shall be regard-
ed as real estate and that real estate
shall not be exempt in odd number
ed years and that it is therefore not
in the power of this board to review
previous values on machinery,
buildings or land.
We find that the Code further pro-
vides that the merchandise of manu-
facturers shall be estimated only
upon the materials which enter into
its combination or manufacture and
not upon the value of the completed
product.
We have had before us the heads
of most of our leading manufactur-
ing institutions and they have an-
swered fully and freely all questions
put to them relative to their inven-
tories, output and their business gen-
erally and the majority of this board
believe that they have returned the
materials in their merchandise on an
equitable basis. We have visited
personally all of the factories in
question and the majority of this
board saw nothing to change its opin-
ion of the returns made and no fur-
ther facts or evidence touching on
the value of the merchandise of said
manufacturing institutions has been
piesented to us.

did not know them to be facts. The

Councilman Rooney moved that in
view of the fact that this work was
ordered when prices were abnormal-
ly high, also in view of the fact
that there is a considerable vacant

a hardship. Therefore be it re-
solved that the City assume thirty

ment, and the Treasurer be directed

Resolution.
Whereas, in 1916 the City Council
ordered the improvement of Clay
Street, Eighteenth Street and Couler
Avenue from the North property line
of Third Street to the north property
line of Twenty-second street; and
Whereas, said improvement was
constructed by C. B. McNamara Com-
pany, Contractor, and said work was
completed and accepted by the Coun-
cil in 1917; and
Whereas, several persons whose
property was charged with special
assessments to pay said improve-
ment appealed therefrom to the
District Court of Dubuque County,
Iowa, and in July, 1920, said action
was determined by said Court and a
decree rendered by the terms of
which the appellants were granted
reduction upon their assessments
amounting to fifty (50) per cent
thereof, providing, however, that
said assessments, as thus reduced,
be paid on or before the 19th of
August, 1920; and
Whereas, some persons who were
parties to said action paid their as-
sessments in full before said action
was decided in order to remove the
cloud created thereby and making
it possible for them to give clear
title to purchasers, or for other
reasons, while others who were not
parties to said action either paid in
full or in part or not at all; and
Whereas, it is the desire of the
City Council to make an equitable
and just settlement with all parties
affected by the assessment for said
improvement in order to close up
said assessment upon the books of
the City,
Be it, therefore, resolved that the
following plan be adopted:
1. That all persons who paid their
assessment in full before delinquent,
whether they were parties to the
suit or not, a refund be granted
amounting to fifty (50) percent or
such payment without interest there-
on, and a warrant be drawn in their
favor on the Treasurere for said
amount.
2. That all persons who paid their
assessment in part be granted a re-
duction of fifty (50) percent upon
their entire assessment and they be
required to pay interest at the rate
of six percent (6%) per annum upon
their assessment as thus reduced
from the date of the last payment.
3. That all persons who have
paid no part of their assessment and
who were not parties to the suit, be
granted a reduction of fifty (50)
per cent upon their assessment, but
be required to pay interest upon the
assessment as reduced from the date
of acceptance of the work at the
rate of six per cent (6%) per annum.
IV. That inorder to receive the
benefit of the reduction herein pro-
posed, all assessments must be paid
on or before the 23rd day of Septem-
ber, 1920, and if the assessments are
not then paid no reduction will be
allowed and the entire assessment
shall be collected and the Treasurer
is hereby instructed to notify all
persons of the action of the Council,
and if any persondfail4 themselves of
the privileges hereto pr-75712Z7r=
within the time prescribed, it shall
be the duty of the Treasurer to
certify all such unpaid assessments
to the County Auditor to be by him
certified to the County Treasurer
for collection by sale of the property
affected thereby.
Adopted this 23rd day of August,
1920.

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:—
Under the laws of the State of
Iowa, the contractor for any public
work must give a bond in an amount
equal to the amount of the contract
for the carrying out of the provisions
of the contract, and must also, in
the case of contracts for street im-
provements or sewer construction
give a maintenance bond for a period
of four years, the amount of which
is to be fixed by the City Council.
Our regular sewer contract calls for
the retention, for a period or one
year, of 5% of the amount due under
contract. Also, in the case of sewer
construction, I can see no possible
reason for giving of a maintenance
bond for a period of four years. My
recommendation, therefore, is that
the • City Council in awarding a con-
tract for sewer construction, either
today or any future time, stipulate
that an amount equal to 5% of the
amount of the contract be retained
for four years. This retained per-
centage to be held in lieu of any
other maintenance bond for sewer
work. This recommendation is made
after consultation with the City At-
torney, who advises that such a re-
tained percentage may be agreed
upon by the City Council and fixed
as the amount of the maintenance
bond, thereby eliminating an un-
necessary expense to the contractor
in connection with sewer work,
which by the contractor is undoubt-
edly passed on to the public who
finally paiy for the cost of this work.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the Manager be
approved and made a matter of rec-
ord. Seconded by Councilman Gab-

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:—
As suggested in communication at
the last meeting of the City Council
certain of the City's working funds
are already practically depleted.
This is a contingency which is not
recognized as a possibility by any
State law. The City is not allowed
to incur any indebtedness, unless
the funds are available to meet the
charge. Neither is the City author-
ized to borrow money for payment
for any current bills. The City has
money in the general fund sufficient
at least, to last until December 1.
I have, therefore, instructed the
City Auditor to overdraw accounts
as may be necessary in order to
meet current bills. Our only care
will be that sufficient moneys are in
the general fund with which to
meet the various over drafts as pre-
sented. At a later time as money
shall be received transfers should
be made to take care of any funds
which in the meantime may have
been overdrawn. In. the past the
City has met similar contingencies
by going to the banks and borrow-
ing money and paying the current
rate for money as required. This
old method of borrowing money is
not legalized by Statute. Further-
more by permitting overdrafts when
necessary and utilizing all the
money in the general fund to meet
these various overdrafts, the city
will save a defference between 2%
per annum, which she has paid on
bank balances and the current rate
which she would be required to pay
if the money was borrowed at a
local bank. 1 am writing the Council
of this action for their approval and
in order that it be made a natter
of record.
Respectfully submitted,
0. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Melchior moved. that.
the recommendation be approved

onded by Councilman Rooney. Car-
ried by the following vote.

chior, Rooney.

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:—
The statement of the City Treasur-
er's for the month ending Septem-
ber 1, discloses the following facts
regarding certain funds. The debt
sinking fund has to its credit $16,-
268.11; the regular bonded debt sink-
ing fund has to its credit $197.10;
the water works bonded debt fund
has to its credit $574.98; the old
water works debt fund has to its
credit $337.16. After conference with
the City Solicitor, I directed that the
348 Special Session, September 15th, 1920
City Treasurer carry the funds now
credited to the debt sinking fund
and the regular bonded debt sinking
fund under one account, called the
general debt and interest sinking
fund. Also, the City Treasurer was
instructed to transfer moneys in the
water works bonded debt fund and
in the old water works fund to the
general funds of the City, and also
any moneys which accrue to these
funds in the future to be credited to
the proper funds immediately with
these directions. The above trans-
fers are authorized directly by law.
I am writing you this letter for your
approval and in order that the
above transfers be made a matter
of record.
Respectfully submitted,
0. E. CARR,

Resolution.
Whereas, knowledge and informa-
tion has come to the City Council of
the City of Dubuque that freight
rates from certain points in the
State of Wisconsin within a radius
of Twenty (20) Miles from the City
of Dubuque upon stone tailings from
the mines are excessive, exorbitant
and wholly prohibitive, due to the
fact that no commodity rate upon
such materials has been fixed by
the Railroad Commissioners of said
State of Wisconsin or the Interstate
Commerce Commission; and
Whereas, the City of Dubuque is
anxious and desirous of using such
materials in large quantities for
street construction and repair work,
but is prevented from doing so by
reason of the high and excessive
freight rate charged thereon, due to
the fact that no commodity rate has
been established; and
Whereas, said Council of the City
of Dubuque believes that if the at-
tention of the proper authorities of
the State of Wisconsin and the
United States be called to this con-
dition a fair and equitable com-
modity rate will be established upon
such materials;
Be it therefore resolved by the
City Council of the City of Dubuque
that the matter of having a fair,
reasonable and equitable commodity
freight rate established upon stone
tailings from the mines in Wisconsin
to Dubuque be presented to the Rail-
road Commissioners of the State of
Wisconsin and to the Interstate Com-
merce Commission and such effort
made and such evidence prepared as
will bring about favorable results.
Be it further resolved that a copy
of this resolution, together with any
other facts as may be considered
necessary, be transmitted to said
Board of Railroad Commissioners of
the State of Wisconsin and to the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
duly certified to, as correct by the
Clerk.

Report City Manager Carr as fol-
lows: In connection with the de-
linquent taxes on personal property,
I find the following taxes are in
error for the reasons assigned:
Joseph Quigley, 1917 taxes amount-
ing to $4.20, 1918 taxes amounting
to $4.20 and 1919 taxes amounting to
$4.65 should be cancelled as these
taxes were levied on furniture let to
him in 1917 and sold by him in March
of the same year. The Dubuque
Leader, 1919 taxes amounting to
$15.50 should be cancelled as these
taxes have been paid under another
assessment against the name Du-
buque Leader. H. Shain, 1919 taxes
amounting to $4.65 should be can-
celled, as taxes against the same
property were paid under the name
of National Repair Shop. J. P.
Notchall, 1919 taxes amounting to
$3.10 should be cancelled as same
is also assessed to J. P. Gotchall and
paid by him. Taxes assessed against
Catherine Hay are as follows: 1913
taxes amounting to $9.43, 1914 taxes
amounting to $8.40, 1915 taxes
amounting to $8.40, 1916 taxes
amounting to $8.40, 1917 taxes
amounting to $8.40, 1918 taxes
amounting to $8.40 and 1919 taxes
amounting to $9.30 should all be
cancelled as Mrs. Catherine Hay
died over seven years ago and I am
;advised by letter her real estate was
promtply settled and, therefore, there
Special Session, October 12th, 1920
should be no taxes assessed against
her. T. M. Sinclair Company, 1918
taxes amounting to $8.40, 1919 taxes
amounting to $9.30 should be can-
celled as this Company discontinued
their Dubuque Branch on the 25th
day of June, 1917, and have carried
no stock in this city since that time.
The taxes against Harger az Biish in
1917 amounting to $1.40, 1918 amount,
ing to $1.40 should be cancelled as
they disposed of their business in
Dubuque several years ago and have
no longer any interest here. I
would recommend that the City
Treasurer be Instructed to cancel
all of the above personal taxes, and
also, that the City Assessor be given
a copy of the Clerk's letter to the
Treasurer, in order to avoid carrying
forward any of these errors into the
next year's list. Presented. Council-
man Brede moved that the report of
the City Manager be approved, the
City Treasurer instructed according-
ly, and suggestions be carried out.
Seconded by Councilman Gabriel.

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:—
In connection with collection of
taxes on delinquent personal prop-
erty, I find delinquent personal taxes
against A. A. Cooper Wagon and
Buggy Company as follows: 1908/
$578.24; 1909, $556.00; 1910, $622.72;
1911, $622.72; 1912, $644.96; 1913
$507.50; 1914, $622.72; 1915, $622.72;
1916, $622.72; 1917, $622.72; 1918,
$622.72, all of the above taxes with
interest on the same remain unpaid
with full knowledge of the company,
as they have refused to pay the
same on request. Personally, I am
unwilling to force the payment of
taxes by those citizens, who can
raise money to pay their taxes only
with great difficulty and then permit
a company that is able to pay their
taxes dodge the payment of their
just and proper share of the cost of
municipal government and therefore,
I am reporting this delinquency to
the City Council in order that the
collection of the above taxes may
be had without delay.
Respectfully submitted,
0. E. CARR,
City Manager.

the personal taxes of A. A. Cooper
be certified to the proper County
officials. Seconded by Councilman

Report City Manager Carr. From

judgment think the following delin-

celled and the City Treasurer and
the City Assessor advised of the
cancellation and the reasons. Arendts
Shoe Company, delinquent taxes
from 1815 to 1919 with interest
amduhts to $90.10 and should be
cancelled as this company is report-
ed to have been out of business for
several years.
A. Schwartzberg, taxes of 1918 and
1919 which with interest amounts to
$5.30 should be cancelled as the same
property is taxed under the name
of the American Shoe Repair Com-
pany and the taxes have been paid
under that name.
Taxes against Chas. Lute from
1914 to 1919 which with interest
amounts to $89.55 should be can-
celled as Chas. Lute has been dead
for seven years.
Taxes against Abe Olansky from
1916 to 1919 which with interest
amounts to $6.64 should be cancelled
as this party is cut of business and
has left the city.
Taxes against Josephine Fortman
from 1913 to 1919 which with interest
amounts to $1,136.98 should be can-
celled as this lady is reported to
have no property, the same having
been given to her children several
years ago.
Takes against Sperry & Hutchin-
son for the year 1919 which with in-
terest amounts to $5.72 should be
cancelled as this Company is no
longer in business.
Taxes against Frank Hos for the
year 1919 which with interest
amounts to $3.34 should be cancelled
as this man has been dead for two
years. Business is now carried on
by Chas. Hos, who has been as-
sessed for same business and the
taxes have been paid.
• Special Session, October 20th, 1920 387
Taxes against the Guaranteed
Tire Service Company for the year
1919 which with interest amounts to
$41.03 should be cancelled, as this
same property is taxed under the

which is a case of double assess-
ment.

said number and providing for honor-

ient to pay current salaries to the
end of the fiscal year 1920; and
Whereas, in order to maintain said
police department and pay reason-
able salaries therein until the end of
the fiscal year 1920, it is necessary
to reduce the police force to the
number not in excess of thirty-four
(34) patrolmen and officers not in-
cluding the chief of police and one
po:ice matron, and to effect such re-
duction it is necessary that certain
police officers be discharged; now

tion shall be made in the following
manner;—

eration the length of service, com-
petency and efficiency of such mem-
hers of the police force.

be discharged the Manager shall be
influenced as far as possible, by the
length of service performed and the
efficiency shown by such discharged

Resolution.
Whereas, the City of Dubuque, as
well as other cities and towns of
the State of Iowa, by virtue of the
provisions of Section 1571-M 32 of
the Supplemental Supplement to
the 1913 Code of Iowa, were entitled
to and received from the Automobile
Tax not to exceed ten per cent of
the total amount apportioned to the
County, the amount of such tax re-
ceived being determined by the ra-
tio of miles of unpaved streets
within the limits thereof to the total
number of miles of public roads and
unpaved streets within the County;
and,
Whereas, under the virtue of the
above law, the City of Dubuque re-
ceived as its portion of said motor
vehicle tax, the sum of $1,800.00
each year, which said sum was used
and expended by the City for the
purpose of improving such streets
as is provided for in said law; and,
Whereas, the Thirty -Eighth Gen-
eral Assembly amended and revised
the motor vehicle laws of this State
and in so doing repealed Section
1571-M 32, above referred to, there-
by taking away from the cities and
towns of Iowa their share of said
tax; and,
Whereas, approximately 75 per
cent of the total number of automo-
biles within the County of Dubuque
are owned by persons residing with-
in the City of Dubuque, and 85 per
cent of the mileage of said automo-
Special Session, December 29th, 1920 523
biles is over and upon the streets
Of said City; and,
Whereas, under and by virtue of
the laws of this State, and the con-
struction placed thereon by the
Courts is that the streets within the
limits of the city and towns are a
part of the public system of the
State; and,
Whereas, the laws of the State of
Iowa are such that residents of the
rural districts, without the limits of
any City or Town can not be com-
pelled to pay for public street im-
provements within the limits of such
City of Town. and it is uniust. un-
reaoonable and unfair thatthe own-
ers of automobiles residing within
the limits of the City and Towns
should be compelled to submit to
the use of the tax paid by them up-
on highways without the limits of
their respective places of resi-
dence;
Therefore, Be it Resolved by the
City Council of the City of Dubuque:
That we deem it unjust that any
city or town of our State should be
deprived of its share of all money
raised by virtue of a tax levied upon
the owners of motor vehicles resid-
ing within our limits, and we want
to call the attention of the Gover-
nor and members of the Legislature
of our State to the historical fact
that the question of just and fair
taxation underlies the very founda-
tion of our Nation.
Be it further resolved, that we re-
spectfully ask the 39th General As-
sembly of the State of Iowa, to
amend the Motor Vehicle Laws of
the State of Iowa, thereby setting
�. aside to the Cities ano Towns of
Iowa, their just and proportionate
share of the automobile tax, based
upon the number of miles of streets
therein, as well as the number of
motor -vehicles owned in the various
cities and towns, and that said law
be so drafted as to authorize the use
of said funds upon any or all streets
and highways for improvement and
maintenance purposes, and that in
no event shall such amount be less
than 35 per cent of the total taxes
collected.
Be it further resolved that copies
of this resolution be sent to the
Honorable B. J. Horchem, Senator,
and T. J. O'Donnell and John W -
epresen a ves, mem ers o the
Thirty -Ninth General Assembly, and
also to the Secretary of the Iowa
League of Municipalities, with the
request that they exert their in-
fluence in favor of the pasage of
laws containing the provisions as
herein stated.
Be it further resolved that Du-
buque County's Representatives in
the General Assembly be instructed
to assist in the passage of a law
which will provide that all money
collected by way of automobile li-
cense be deposited in the County in
which such licenses are paid.

December 29, 1920.
Honorable Mayor and City Council.
Gentlemen:
In connection with our recent re-
quests for higher electric rates and
street railway fares, I wish to con-
firm our situation as submitted in
the various conferences with your
Honorable Body.
Upon our actual investment, and
based upon 5 per cent depreciation
charge and 7% per cent return, the
historical value of our property as
of July 31, 1920, was $3,775,227.03. A
detailed tabulation showing the man-
ner in which the latter figure was
obtained is in your possession.
During the fiscal year of August
1, 1919, to July 31, 1920, total reve-
nue received was $773,652.83 against
which are operating expenses, de-
preciation charges and a 7% per
cent return. totaling $976,525.06. A
deficit of $202,872.23 was thus in-
curred.
In asking for relief we based our
request upon that which we are en-
titled to earn upon our actual invest-
ment, rather than upon the repro-
ductive value of the property recog-
nized as the basis for rate making
purposes in recent Federal Court
decisions, such as the Consolidated
Gas Co., of New York vs. Public Ser-
vice Commission of the State of
New York. First District, and St.
Joseph (Missouri) Railway. Light,
Heat & Power Co.. vs. Missouri Pub-
lic Service Commission. Were we
to exercise our legal rights, we
would ask for such relief as would
increase our net earnings three -fold
before interest and depreciation
charges. It is not our desire, how-
ever, to earn upon the enhanced
value of our property, as such might
work a hardship upon the people of
Dubuque, although no more so than
the prices which have been, and are
being paid for other commodities.
In connection with the new rate
schedule requested, it should be kept
in mind that the maximum step of
12c per KWH is less than that of
12%c per KWH which prevailed in
Dubuque prior to October 1, 1916,
and long before the abnormal in-
crease in coal, labor and other mat-
erials which existed throughout the
war, and ever since. Electric cur-
rent is probably the only commodity
which has sold for less than pre-war
prices.
In connection with our request for
relief in the Railway Department,
we recognize that such is possibly
more difficult to adjust, as an in-
creased fare to 10c, which exists in
over sixty cities in the United States
today, would very likely result in
decreased patronage so that we
would not realize the full measure of
such an increase in fare. Further-
more, decreased use of the street
railway by the people of Dubuque
would be detrimental and would re-
sult in a loss of business to every
business house, theatre, etc., in the
city.
In the past we have advocated the
use of One -Man Safety Cars as per-
mitting. a considarable saving in
operating expenses through their
adoption, but our financial condition
today is such that we are not able
to negotiate for the purchase of
such new light weight safety cars as
would be desirable for one-man
operation. To properly equip our
system for safety car operation
would require the purchase of not
less than twenty new cars, which
at a cost of $7,000.00 each, would
total $140,000.00.
The increases which have in the
past been granted in street car fares
were insufficient in themselves to
meet the increased wages granted,
with the result that the net earnings
in the Railway Department available
for interest and depreciation charges
are lower than ever before. The in-
creased costs of living were the
bases for wage increases to our
men, and these costs have not yet
sufficiently declined to warrant cor-
responding reduction in wages.
The thorough and careful analysis
of our accounts and records made by
your Honorable Body, your City
Manager and the City Attorney,
have substantiated our statement
that we are in immediate need of
relief to the extent of not less than
$100,000.00 'year. based upon our
actual necessities as indicated by
the twelve months' operation ending
July 31, 1920, and which does not
take into consideration the high coal
and labor costs prevailing now over
that of the average during the
twelve months' period referred to.
An increase in our revenue of
$100,000.00 per year falls very short
of providing a reasonable rate of re-
turn on our historical value, not to
Special Session, December 29th, 1920 525
mention the value based upon repro-
ductive cost, which, as has been
stated, is what courts recognize as a
basis for rate making purposes.
We realize that there is a ten-
dency toward lower prices in many
commodities, and although we are of
the opinion that it will be a consid-
erable time before materially lower
costs prevail for .coal, labor, etc., we
are agreeable to a waiving, for the
present, a reasonable rate of return
upon our investment in the hope that
our operating expenses wil be mat-
erially reduced by the end of the
next six months' period. To this
end we will not press you for imme-
diate relief in the Railway Depart-
ment, but naturally do so without
prejudicing any rights we may have
because of the Federal Court decree
of last May.
In the Electric Department our
operating costs are so out of propor-
tion to our revenue because of,
principally, the higher coal costs
which in 1920 were $50,000.00 in ex-
cess of 1919, it is imperative that
immediate relief be granted, and we,
therefore, respectfully submit the
following rate for electric current to
be effective as of January 1, 1921:
First 35 KWH at llc per KWH.
Next 465 KWH at 8c per KWH.
Next 500 KWH at 6c per KWH.
Next 1000 KWH at 5c per KWH.
Next 1000 KWH at 4c per KWH.
Excess over 3000 KWH at 31/2c
per KWH.
Prompt payment discount 5 per
cent. Minimum bill $1.00.
No prompt payment discount on
minimum bill.
In making the above request we
realize that it does not provide the
1 ev enue contemplated in our prev-
ious proposed rate schedule, but we
concur with you that at this time it
is desirable that the least possible
burden should be placed upon your
constituents—who are our custom-
ers—and if in your judgment it is
not practicable, or desirable, to
grant all that we could confidently
expect from a judicial determination
of our case, you have manifested
such a commendable spirit of fair-
ness, that we are obligated to join
with you in a moderate concession.
You recognize as well as we, that
an illy nourished public utility is a
drag upon the advancement of our
progressive city, and we believe you
recognize that we are, and have
been rendering a service of quality
and quantity beyond the measure of
our returns thereof, and that such
conditions cannot indefinitely con-
tinue.
That your Honorable Body may be
regularly informed as to the effect
of the above rate upon our earnings,
we will gladly agree to submit to
you itemized monthly operating
statements in the Electric Depart-
ment, as we are doing in the Rail-
way Department, so that you may
ever be conversant with our total
earnings. These statements will be
in such detail as you may desire as
will be all other information re-
quested.
If, because we have for the time
being withdrawn our request for re-
lief in the Railway Department, it
should be urged that the electric
consumers should not be asked to
pay a rate of charge in order that
the street car patron may pay less,
we concur that such would be the
case if the electric consumer were
asked to make the Electric Depart-
ment earn excessively. From your
examinations of our books you will
recognize that an electric rate such
as requested does not even pay a
proper return in its own depart-
ment, and will be far from supplying
funds to be applied to the Street
Railway Department.
Yours very truly,
0. W. SIMONDS,
General Manager.

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
During the past week I have been
endeavoring to ascertain exactly the
amount of the so-called Loan War-
rants, which the City has outstand-
526 Special Session, December 29th, 1920
ing, and the total as I now have it
amounts to $210,888.60. This total
is probably within a few thousand.
The so-called loan warrants have
been issued and a record kept right
along with the other current city
warrants and no separate record has
been kept in either the Auditor's or
Treasurer's office. Interest has been
paid from time to time on presenta-
tion of the original loan warrants
and the payment of the interest en-
dorsed on the back of the warrant.
This old warrant has been renewed
when worn out or when there was
no longer room for any more en-
dorsements on the back. This
method of handling these old debts
is very unsatisfactory from the
standpoint of the city, and is also
unsatisfactory, as I ascertain, from
the standpoint of theholders of these
warrants, particularly the banks.
They state that a form of indebted-
ness which is indefinite as to date
of maturity is for many reasons ob-
jectionable to them.
In view of all the facts, I would
recommend the issuance of bonds to
the amount of $180,000.00, said bonds
to bear 5 per cent interest and to
mature $20,000.00 each year for the
next nine years, beginning on Feb-
ruary 1, 1922. The taxes collected
in 1921 for bond interest payment,
will, I think, be sufficient to take
care of the interest, also retire those
loan warrants in excess of $180,000.
Also, in the future the tax levy for
bond and interest payment can be
made sufficient to take care of an
annual payment of $20,000.00 on the
principal of this current floating
debt, and to provide a sinking fund
for the interest on the other general
city bonds. In this way this floating
debt, which has been accumulating
since 1900 and before will be entire-
ly taken care of in 1930, and I be-
lieve
elieve the present holders of these
old warrants will be glad to have
type of security changed to an obli-
gation maturing at a definite time.
If this plan meets with the ap-
proval of the Council a necessary
legislation will be prepared to carry
it out.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.

recommendation be approved and

Resolution.
Whereas, the City of Dubuque, ac-
quired a strip of land about Forty -
Five (45) Feet in width off of Lot
107 of L. H. Langworthy's Addition
for the extension of Elm Street to
Sanford Avenue, said land to be used
for street purposes.
Whereas, said land is no longer
needed or useful for the purposes
for which it was originally acquired
and serves no public use at this time
nor is it likely to serve any public
use in the future; and,
Whereas, it is deemed advisable
by the City Council of the City of
Dubuque to dispose of said strip of
land by private sale for the reason-
able market value thereof in order
that funds might be realized there-
from; and,
Whereas, an offer has been made
to the City to purchase said strip
of land for One Hundred Dollars
($100.00), by one W. F. Heitzman,
which amount is the reasonable
value thereof;
Now, Therefore, Be it Resolved by
the City Council of the City of Du-
buque, that said strip of land be sold
to W. F. Heitzman for the consid-
eration of One Hundred Dollars
($100.00) and the Mayor and City
Clerk are hereby authorized and dir-
ected to execute a deed to the same
and do all things necessary to be
done to affect the transfer thereof,
said strip of land being approximate-
ly seven and one-half feet (7%) in
width on Sanford Avenue and fif-
teen and one-half feet (15%) in
1
Special Session, December 29th, 1920 527
width in the rear of the lot now
owned by W. F. Heitzman, all of
which is a part of Lot 107 of L. H.
Langworthy's Addition.
The Engineer is hereby instruct-
ed to make a survey of said strip of
land and submit a description there-
of by meteors and bounds so that
said land may be accurately de -4
scribed in the deed.

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: Some months ago the
matter of renumbering the City
streets was referred to the City
Manager. I have taken this propo-
sition up with the City Engineer and
we have worked out a plan which is
shown on the map of the City, for re-
numbering all the houses within the
City. The plan which we recom-
mend briefly is based on Couler
Avenue and Clay Street as the north
and south line. All points as shown
by the lines parallel to Couler Ave-
nue and Clay Street, one block to
the east are to be numbered from 0
to 100, and in the second block from
100 to 200. On the west of Couler
Avenue the same method prevails. In
other words, all buildings in the
City equi-distance from Clay Street
and Couler Avenue, located on
streets running at right angles to
Clay street and Couler Avenue, will
have approximately the same num-
bers.
The other base line is Dodge
street, starting at the river and
running west to Grandview and
through the change of name in
South Street to Dodge Street will ex-
Regular Session, February 7th, 1921 19
•
tend to the east as far as the City
is developed. All points approxi-
mately the same distance north or
south of Dodge Street will be given
the same numbers. On account of
the crookedness of Dodge Street
this is not quite ideal for this pro-
position, but is the best located
street in the City. Then, too, by us-
ing Dodge Street as the base run-
ning east and west all numbers in
the business part of the city on
streets running north and south will
be left undisturbed, which is quite a
desirable factor. The plan for re-
numbering the buildings in the city
was submitted to the Committee on
Street Names, and I believe met
with their approval. In case the
Council approves this plan for re-
numbering, the matter of providing
numbers will be given consideration
later.
Personally, I feel that in view of
the large number of house numbers
and the expense to individual prop-
erty owners, that the City should se-
cure these numbers and furnish
them to the property owners at
cost. In this way uniformity can be
secured and at the same time lessen
the expense to the property owners.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.

From the above estimates there will be an apparent surplus in the
General Funds of $72,009.51. From this should be taken $20,000.00 to
cover the 'deficit in operating funds April 1, 1921.
Also $9,000.00 should be set aside to cover deficit in Park funds of
long standing. Also $18,000.00 is needed to meet current deficit in Gen-
eral Bonded Debt Fund on April 1, 1921.
This leaves an apparent balance in the General Funds for contin-
gencies of 525,009.51, or to be carried forward into 1922 and then to be
used, together with any other fund balances, in taking care of the gen-
eral indebtedness of the city.
In connection with the statement of the past year's expenditures,
$32,000.00 of old Loan Warrants are shown as having been redeemed.
These warrants are actually now carried as cash by the City Treasurer,
which makes it important to pass through the year with sufficient bal-
ance to pay them up and clear the city's books.
In these statements no attention is paid to special improvements.
which are to be paid for through assessment of property benefited; neith-
er as to cost nor as to the retirement of Special Improvement Bonds. The
city's books show these funds to be in good shape for the ensuing year
with an anticipated balance of $30,319.$6.
Following is a detailed statement covering expenditures March 1,
1920, to March 1, 1921, and an estimate of expenditures for the next
fiscal year. It should be noted in comparison of these figures that the
current deficit of March 1, 1920, amounting to $60,743.66 is shown with
the expenditures for the past year.

CIty Manager Carr reported as
follows:
56 Special Session, \larch 30th, 1921
In connection with delinquent
special assessments, I find a rather
involved proposition involving prop-
erty now owned by the Sisters of
the Holy Ghost. On account of the
improvement of St. Ambrose Street
there was levied on September 4,
1913, special assessments against Lot
21, Finley's Addition, of $421.28;
against Lot 38, Finley's Addition, of
$469.59.
Also, there was levied on January
15, 1914, on account of the improve-
ment of Arch Street, special assess-
ments against Lots 34, 35, 36, 37 -anti
38, Finley's Addition, all belonging
to the Sisters of the Holy Ghost, of
$127.84 each, giving a total of
$639.20.
There was also levied on Septem-
ber 7, 1916, on account of the sewer
in St. Ambrose Street, special assess-
ments against Lot 21, Finley's Addi-
tion, of $155.79; Lot 38, Finley's Ad-
dition, of $158.98, making a total of
these assessments without interest,
of $1,835.94.
On November 11, 1914, the City
condemned a portion of Lots 37 and
38, Finley's Addition, for street pur-
poses. The jury awarded to the Sis-
ters of the Holy Ghost the sum of
$900.00 on account of the property in
this way appropriated for street pur-
poses. This amount remained un-
paid.
On November 21, 1918, the Sisters
petitioned the City Council in con-
nection with Lots 37 and 38, asking
that the amount of the award of the
appraisal be used to pay delinquent
and general taxes against these lot;.
On December 5, 1918, a motion was
made by Alderman Hird that war-
rants be drawn in favor of the Sis-
ters in the amount of $900.00, and
that the City Treasurer be instruct-
ed to accept the sum of $525 in full
payment of all taxes, both general
and special, due and owing from said
Sisters, the same to be without in-
terest.
The Council Proceedings do not
indicate that this motion was ever
voted upon, and yet a warrant was
issued for Seventy -Five Dollars to
pay the attorney employed by the
Sisters, but no warrant was ever is-
sued in favor of the Sisters. Furth-
ermore, I am inclined to think that
the City Council was never advised
fully as to the amount of delinquent
outstanding special assessments
against this property, as it would
hardly seem reasonable that delin-
quent taxes to the amount of
$1,835.94 would be ordered cancelled
on the strength of an obligation ow-
ing to the Sisters of the Holy
Ghost, of Nine Hundred Dollars, and
at the same time a further payment
of Five Hundred Dollars authorized.
In view of all these complications,
however, I would recommend that
the City Council c.ancel all delin-
quent special assessments above re-
ferred to on account of the property
belonging to the Sisters and acquir-
ed by the City November 19, 1914,
for street purposes.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the recommendation of the City Man-
ager be accepted and the Treasurer
so instructed. Seconded by Council-
man Rooney. Carried by the follow-
ing vote:
Yeas—Councilmen Brede, Gabriel,
Melchior and Rooney.
Nays—None.
Absent—Mayor Alderson.
Report City Manager Carr as fol-
lows:
Alrs. Fischer, the owner of the
property needed by the city for the
extension of Rhomberg Avenue, is de-
sirous of completing the transaction
along the line as negotiated last
fall, namely, that she will deed to
the City that part of Lots 356, 366,
367 and 368 which are needed for
street purposes in making the exten-
sion of Rhomberg Avenue. She will
pay all outstanding special assess-
ments and general taxes on this
property and let the City have this
property for the sum of $5,000.00, it
being stipulated in the deed that no
further expense will be assessed to•
her abutting property in connection
with the laying of first sidewalks or
in the making of the original im-
provement of the street through this
block.
Mrs. Fischer is also desirous of a
little ready money to take care of
this property. I would, therefore,
recommend that a warrant be drawn
in favor of Mrs. Fischer to the
amount of $1,000.00, the same to be
the first payment on the purchase
price. The balance of the $5,000.00
less any outstanding special assess-
ments or taxes to be paid on the fur-
nishing to the City of a satisfactory
deed and abstract, presented. Coun-
cilman Gabriel moved that the rec-
ommendation of the City Manager
be approved. Seconded by Council-

Melchior and Rooney.

From the above estimates there will be an apparent surplus in the
General Funds of $72,009.51. From this should be taken $20,000.00 to
cover the deficit in operating funds April 1, 1921.
Also $9,000.00 should be set aside to cover deficit in Park funds of
long standing. Also $18,000.00 is needed to meet current deficit in Gen-
eral Bonded Debt Fund on April 1, 1921.
This leaves an apparent balance in the General Funds for contin-
gencies of $25,009.51, or to be carried forward into 1922 and then to be
used, together with any other fund balances, in taking care of the gen-
eral indebtedness of the city.
In connection with the statement of the past year's expenditures,
$32,000.00 of old Loan Warrants are shown as having been redeemed.
These warrants are actually now carried as cash by the City Treasurer,
which makes it important to pass through the year with sufficient bal-
ance to pay them up and clear the city's books.
In these statements no attention is paid to special improvements.
which are to be paid for through assessment of property benefited; neith-
er as to cost nor as to the retirement of Special Improvement Bonds. The
city's books show these funds to be in good shape for the ensuing year
with an anticipated balance of $30,319.86.
Following is a detailed statement covering expenditures March 1,
1920, to March 1, 1921, and an estimate of expenditures for the next

fiscal year. It should be noted in comparison of these figures that the
current deficit of March 1, 1920, amounting to $60,743.66 is shown with
the expenditures for the past year.
