Petition of Fred H. Hintz referred
to the City Council by the Board of
Supervisors, asking to have the 1924-
1925 1926 tax cancelled on Lots 1-2-
3-11-12-13-14 and 15, King's Grove
Add., stating that the above mention-
ed property was deeded to him in
June 1928, and he finds that the tax
as above mentioned was not paid by
the Ernst Mueller Estate. Mr. Muel-
ler was a Civil War veteran and re-
ceived an exemption for the above
mentioned years, which exemption
was not enough to exempt the full
value of the property as assessed by
the Assessor for the above men-
tioned years, and as Mr. Mueller at
that time thought his exemption
would take care of all the taxes for
those years. Mr. Hintz therefore asks
that his petition be granted and the
County Treasurer be instructed to
cancel the 1924-1925 and 1926 tax on
the above mentioned lots.

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: In accordance with
your instructions and our advertise-
ment, bids were received at 10 A.
M. Friday, May 24th, for the con-
struction of a 6 inch sewer in Far-
ley Street from High Bluff Street
to Thomas Place, a 6 inch sewer in
Eagle Street from Thomas Place to
a point 580 feet westerly therefrom
and an 8 inch sewer from the afore-
said mentioned point to Viola
Street and a 6 inch sewer from
Eagle Street to a point 98 feet south
of Eagle Street on Viola Street.
The resolution drawn up starting
this improvement was erroneously
prepared inasmuch as it stated that
an 8 inch sewer would be construct-
ed the full length of the improve-
ment, also a mistake was made in
preparing the proposal sheets for
the contractors In that two of the
proposals called for 1383 feet of 6
inch sewer and that of Uhlrich-Paley
Company calling for 1383 feet of 8
inch sewer, whereas bids should
have been called for on the basis of
896 feet of 6 inches sewer and 487
feet of 8 inch sewer and I therefore
recommend that all bids be rejected
and that the improvement be re-
started by drawing up a correct res-
olution to start the improvement and
that all bids be rejected as shown
on the accompanying tabulation.
Very respectfully submitted,
O. A. KRATZ,

Intersection when the red light is dis-
played in the direction from which
he is proceeding. If the amber light
is displayed he shall get ready to
stop his vehicle. If the green light
Is displayed he shall proceed. In
other words, the green light is a sig-
nal to go; the amber light is a sig-
nal to get ready to stop; and the red
light is the signal to stop. No vehicle
shall be permitted to cross an inter-
section when either the red or the
amber lights are displayed. At cor-
nei s where signal lights are in

mitted. Right hand turns may be

nal devices are manipulated for the
purpose of directing traffic on the

piled with by the operators of all
vehicles, and a failure to obey the
same shall subject the offender to
the fine as in this ordinance pro-
vided.
The driver or operator of vehicles
approaching automatic signal devices
or lights shall bring his vehicle to a
complete stop before traversing an
Intersection when the red light is
displayed in the direction from which
he is proceeding. If the amber light
is displayed he shall get ready to
stop his vehicle. If the green light is
displayed he shall proceed. In other
words, the green light is a signal to
go; the amber light is a signal to
get ready to stop; and the red light
is the signal to stop. No vehicle shall
be permitted to cross an intersection
when either the red or the amber
lights are displayed. At corners
where signal lights are in operation
no left hand turns are permitted.
Right hand turns may be made at
such corners only when the green
light is displayed in the direction the
vehicle is traveling. Pedestrians
shall, as far as possible, obey these
rules in crossing street intersec-
tions."
Par. 38. Section 3. That this ordi-
nance being deemed urgent and of
immediate necessity shall be in force
and effect from and after its final
passage, adoption and approval by
the City Council and publication as
provided by law.

the operation of its street railway
upon Central Avenue from 13th
Street to 3rd Street, on West 3rd
Street to Iowa Street, on Iowa
Street to West 2nd Street and on
West 2nd Street to Main Street; and
to replace double track on Central
Avenue from 13th Street to 22nd
Street with a single track; permit-
ting the installation of a turn -out at
19th and Central Avenue; and pre-
scribing the conditions upon which
such permission is granted.
Whereas by an ordinance duly ad-
opted on February 14th, 1922, the
Dubuque Electric Co. was granted a
franchise to maintain and operate
its lines of street railway over and
across certain streets of the City of
Dubuque and was not permitted to
abandon the same without the con-
sent of the City Council of said
City; and
Whereas as Interstate Power Co.,
the successor to said Dubuque Elec-
tric Co., has petitioned the City
Council for permission to abandon
its line of street railway on Central
Avenue from 13th Street to 3rd
Street, on West 3rd Street to Iowa
Street, on Iowa Street to West 2nd
Street, and on West 2nd Street to
Main Street, and this Council, after
full consideration, finds that there
is no objection to the granting of
the permission requested; and
Whereas said Interstate Power
Co. has also petitioned this Council
for permission to replace the double
track of street railway on Central
Avenue from 13th Street to 22nd
Street with a single track and this
Council likewise finds that there is
no objection to the granting of such
permission; and
Whereas said Interstate Power Co.
has also requested permission to in-
stall and maintain a turn -out at 19th
and Central Avenue to which like-
wise there appears to be no objec-
tion. Now, therefor
Be it resolved by the City Council
of the City of Dubuque:

Streets said Company shall supply
at its own expense sufficient crushed

vided for by plans and specifications

ager, all of such work to be done

Engineer. In the construction of
the turn -out at 19th and Central Av-
enue such work shall be done in ac-
cordance with plans and specifica-
tions prepared therefor and under

be construed to relieve said Com-
pany from paving its legal propor-
tion of the special assesments which
will be levied to pay the cost of the
improvement of Central Avenue
from 13th Street to 22nd Street.

sons or property on account of the

ances herein provided for while such

from any such damages.

ment of work of removing the rails
and ties from the streets, a copy
of this resolution shall be served
upon said Company by the City

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: At the Council meet-
ing held May 6th, 1929, a verbal pro-
test of Mr. George W. Holmes, own-
er of the west 80 feet of subdivision
of lots 14 and 15 Bush's Subdivision,
protesting against his assessment for
the construction of sanitary sewer in
Burns and Oak Streets was referred
to your City Manager for report.
The total amount of Mr. Holmes'
assessment for the construction of
said sewer is $202.71 and your City
Manager inspected this proposition
on the ground and finds that Mr.
Holmes' property is accessible and
can be connected to the sewer with
perhaps some rock excavations as
is necessary for all property in this
district and that ordinarily his as-
sessment is a proper one inasmuch
Mr. Holmes has a frontage of 95.8
feet and with a $3.00 assessment lim-
itation on that frontage the assess-
ment could be made up to $287.40.
Your City Manager has made an
Investigation of damage done to plas-
tering inside the house due to blast-
ing while constructing the sewer and
wishes to recommend that an allow-
ance be made Mr. Holmes on his
assessment of $50.00 on account of
said damage and that the City fur-
nish the air compressor without cost
to Mr. Holmes when he desires to
make a connection to the sewer.
Very respectfully submitted,
O. A. KRATZ,
City Manager.
Councilman McEvoy moved that
the recommendation of the City Man.
ager be approved and the City Aud-
itor be instructed to draw a warrant
in favor of Mr. Holmes in the sum
of $50.00 he to indorse same to the
City to apply on his special assess-
ment. Seconded by Councilman Jan-
sen. Carried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Andelfinger, Council-
men Jansen, McEvoy and Schuckert.

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: I am attaching here-
to a letter received from the U. S.
Engineers in regard to a proposed
high line which the Interstate Power
Company proposes to build over the
Mississippi River from the tower
now located on the island and to
extend to East Dubuque, said cable
to have a clearance at the lowest
point of 65 feet above high water.
Immediately upon receipt of this
communication I took the matter up
with Mr. John Kerper of the Dock
Commission and it is his opinion that
if a 65 foot clearance is maintained
that no objection should be made to
the crossing and I therefore recom-
mend that the U. S. Engineers be so
informed.
Very respectfully,
0. A. KRATZ,
City Manager.
Councilman Jansen moved that the
report of the City Manager be ap-
proved. Seconded by Councilman Mc-
Evoy. Carried by the following

I am pleased to advise that the
figures as published in the Tele-
graph -Herald were absolutely correct
as published and I am unable to rec-
ognize some of the figures used by
Mr. McEvoy in his comparison and
I am at a loss to know where the
figures were obtained except those
used in connection with the Improve-
ment of Dodge Street from Grand-
view to Bryant and I note that Mr.
McEvoy is using the figures for the
reset stone curb in both cases,
whereas the low bid for this im-
provement was submitted for the re-
moval of stone curb and the substi-
tution of integral curb.
Very respectfully submitted,

Dear Sir: At the Council meet-
ing held June 3rd a petition from L.
O. Hillyard requesting that Henion
Street be opened up to connect with
West 16th Street was referred to
the Council to view the grounds.
This is to advise that the t'mmell
did view the grounds on June 29th
and the proposition of extending
Henion Street. to West 16th Street
from the present improvements was
considered and it was deemed that
the improvement would be a very
expensive one and would also give
an impractical grade and also the
proposition of contouring Henion
Street back of the house owned by
Mr. Alexander and running thence
easterly almost parallel to East 16th
Street in order to gain grade and
make a connection with 16th Street
was considered by the Council. This
proposition was also not approved
due to the large expense that would
be involved in constructing the
street and the fact that so few pro-
perty owners would derive any ma-
terial benefit from same.
Very respectfully submitted,

vice on GrandvietcAvenue to a bole

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: This is to inform you
that our 4% ton roller, commonly
called the pup roller, is in a very
bad state of repair and that it will
cost approximately $300.00 to put
same in usuable condition. This roll-
er was purchased in September, 1925,
and cost $2200.00. We are now able
to trade this roller in its present con-
dition to the Austin Western Road
Machinery Co. on a new roller at an
allowance of .500.00 on a roller that
268 Special Session,
wail cost $2725.00 including a front
road planer,, This roller is a 5 ton
roller and will make a net cost to
the City of $2225.00 f. o. b. Harvey,
Illinois.
We have no allowance in the bud-
get for the purchase of a piece of
machinery of this kind and therefore
I recommend that the partial pay-
ment plan proposed by the Austin
Western Road Machinery Company,
namely that 2011r or $445.00 be paid
now and the balance to be paid next
year at the rate of 6r/o on deferred
payments be accepted.
We have continual use for a roller
of this kind and are very much han-
dicaped at the present time due to
the fact that the roller is in need of
repairs and I sincerely trust that the
Council will approve of this proposi-
tion.
Very respectfully submitted,
O. A. KRATZ,

find they represent a duplicate col-

rant for $27.40 should be authorized
in payment of this erroneous collec-
tion, check made payable to L. C.
Kolfenbach. Upon receipt of this
check, he will cancel tax sale cer-
tificates, thereby correcting the
County tax books.

tric Company of Waterloo was the
lowest bid received but was not ac-
cording to notice, they having sub-
mitted a lump sum bid rather than
bidding on the individual items as
called for on the proposal sheet. I
would respectfully recommend,
therefore, that the contract for the
installation of the boulevard lights
on Central Avenue be awarded to
Geo. Kennelly as his bid was the
lowest legal bid received.
Respectfully submitted,

Resolution No. 121-29
Whereas, in view of the fact that
South Hill Street is about to be per-
manently improved by paving the
same and it is the contention of
property owners residing along said
street that a storm water sewer
should be constructed in advance of
said pavement and the City Council
does not deem it necessary or advis-
able to construct such sewer at this
time;
Now Therefore:
Be it resolved by the City Council
of the City of Dubuque that this
Council hereby gives assurance to
said property owners that, should it
develop after the pavement is con-
structed, that a storm water sewer
is absolutely necessary on said street
in order to take care of storm water
being discharged thereon and there-
by protect private property from
damage therefrom, said storm water
sewer will be constructed.
Passed, adopted and approved this
16th clay of July, 1929.

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: This is to inform you
that our 4% ton roller, commonly
called the pup roller, is in a very
bad state of repair and that it will
cost approximately $300.00 to put
same in usable condition.
This roller was purchased in Sep-
tember, 1925, and cost $2200.
We are now able to trade this roll-
er in its present condition to the
Austin Western Road Machinery
Company on a new roller at an al•
lowance of $500 on a roller that will
cost $2725 including a front road
planer. This roller is a 5 ton roller
and will make a net cost to the City
of $2225 f. o. b. Harvey, Ill. of
Vire have no allowance in the bud-
get for the purchase of a piece of
machinery of this kind and therefore
I recommend that the partial pay-
ment plan proposed by the Austin
Western Road Machinery Co., name-
ly 20r/r or $445.00 be paid now and
the balance to be paid next year
at the rate of 6% on deferred pay-
ments be accepted.
We have continual use for a roll-
er of this kind and are very much
handicapped at the present time dui
to the fact that the roller is in need
of repairs and I sincerely trust that
the Council will approve of this pro-
position.
Very respectfully submitted,
O. A. KRAT7.,
City Manager.
Councilman Meuser moved that
the City Manager be authorized to
purchase the new 5 ton roller. Sec-
onded by Councilman McEvoy. Car-

Co. to the City Engineer.
Mr. Walter Cullen,
City Engineer, Dubuque.
Dear Sir : Referring to invitation
for bids for gas service in Saunders
Street, we wish to advise you that
we are submitting no bid for this
work for the reason that such ser-
vices, if laid, would not be usable
without a gas main to suPPly them;
and it is not economically possible
July23rt1, 1920 303
to supPly the gas twain which would
require an investment of approxi.
mately- eleven hundred dollars
($1100,00), or over eleven times the
cost of service pipes at the price we
should charge for thein.
Yours truly,
KEY CITY GAS COMPANY,
By Geo. McLean, Manager.

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: In regard to the pav-
ing of Central Avenue, the City Engi-
neer's office is doing everything pos.
Bible to expedite the work on this
improvement which is a very difii.
cult and complicated one due to the
fact that the curbs are being moved
back two feet and various changes
are being made by the public utility
companies, and in preparing a pro•
gram of procedure in order to elim-
inate as much confusion as possible,
it has occurred to us that it would
be almost necessary to use quick -
setting cement in all intersections,
otherwise the territory east of Cen-
tral Avenue will almost be cut off
trom the territory west during the
curbing period and will cause a great
deal of confusion of traffic. It is
therefore recommended that the
Council authorize the contractor to
use quick -setting cement which he
has agreed to use and charge the
City only the additional cost be-
tween ordinary cement and the quick -
setting cement or approximately
$1.30 per barrel, the City Engineer
having estimated that the additional
cost caused by the use of quick -
setting cement will be approximately
$2,900.00 and as this cost cannot be
assessed to the property owners, it
would have to be paid out of the
Public Improvement Fund.

City Manager.

To the Honorable August
Mayor3,and29. City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: From May 1st to the
Present date the City of Dubuque has
been collecting garbage within the
City limits. At first we were dump-
ing the garbage outside the city lim-
its and as you know the Board of
Trustees of Table Mound Township
enjoined the City from damping gar-
bage in their township.
We are now dumping our garbage
at the foot of 12th Street within the
city limits, forming what is known
as a sanitary fill, a method being
used by a large number of cities
throughout the world and with satis-
factory results. (For the Council's
information I am attaching hereto a
COPY of an article appearing in the
Engineering News -Record of August
8th, 1929, describing the dumping of
garbage in like manner in Seattle,
Washington).
Within the past few weeks the
County Attorney has informed both
the Council and myself that in his
opinion the City is violating a state
Special Session, A
law by dumping garbage on land
which he claims is subject to over-
flow.
As the Council already knows, im-
mediately upon the return of our City
Attorney from his vacation, his
opinion on the matter was sought.
Our City Attorney, after carefully
examining the law, has informed
both the Council and myself that he
is unable to conclude whether or
not our method of disposing of gar-
bage is in violation of the state laws,
as there has never been a ruling of
the courts in the state on the mat-
ter. He stated, however, that if a
literal interpretation of the statute
were adhered to the dumping of gar-
bage, as we are now doing, would
constitute a violation, but if the
court should rule that it is necessary
to constitute a violation, to show
that the garbage will by reason of
the overflow pollute the adjacent
streams and further finds that the
covering being placed on the gar-
bage will prevent this, then there
would be no violation of the statute,
however, he stated this matter could
never be decided until action is tak-
en by the court.
Some agitation has arisen against
the City handling the garbage col-
lection, a feeling that the work
should be done privately and inas-
much as the City Attorney is in
doubt on the legality, I am recom-
mending to the City Council that the
City discontinue the collection of
garbage and that the Council author-
ize and direct me to advertise for
bids for a contract covering the col-
lection of garbage in the City.
Personally I feel that if the dump-
ing of garbage at the foot of 12th
Street and adjoining lands is not in
violation of the laws, that a saving
of from four to six thousand dollars
a year for the taxpayers can be
made. However, I am of the opin-
ion that even a saving of six thou-
sand dollars a year is not worth
while in the face of the hatred and
dissension which the collection of
garbage by the City has engendered
and therefore in the cause of com-
plete harmony I am recommending
that the City advertise for bids for
the collection of garbage.
Very respectfully,
O. A. KRAT7.,
City Manager.
Councilman McEvoy moved that
the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved and he be and
Is hereby directed to abandon the
present garbage collection and ad-
vertise for bids for the collection of
garbage in the City. Seconded by
Councilman Jansen. Carried by the

BOARD OF HEALTH
(Official)
Special Session August 13th, 1929.
Present—Mayor Andelfinger in the
Chair, Councilmen Jansen, McEvoy
and Schuckert.
Communication of Dr. W. J. Con-
nell, Health Director:
Mr. O. A. Kratz, City Manager,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Dear Sir: I wish to call your at-
tention to section 2389 of the Iowa
Code as amended in chapter 67 of
the Forty-third General Assembly,
regarding the appointment of the
Registrar of Vital Statistics. This
.Statute as amended follows:
Local Registrar—Appointment—
Tenure.
The Board of Supervisors appoint
the registrar in each county, except
that such appointment shall be made
by the local Board of Health in cit-
ies having a population of 35,000 or
more. The term of each local regis-
trar shall be four years and he shall
serve until his successor shall be ap-
pointed and qualified.
Recently there appeared an edit-
orial in the Dubuque Telegraph -Her-
ald regarding Vital Statistics and
Health Conditions in Dubuque. These
figures were apparently taken from
government sources and it was stat -
ted that the birth rate in Dubuque
was especially low, the death rate
high and the infant mortality seemed
much greater than in any other city
in the State. The figure as indicated
in the editorial stated that our in-
fant mortality in Dubuque was 91.3
while records show that it was only
59.9. There is a marked discrep-
ency in the figures.
At the time I was appointed Di-
rector of Health it was indicated
that the Vital Statistics would be
taken away from the Health Depart-
ment and I proceeded to see Mr. Mel-
chior, the Mayor about the situation.
He interviewed Mr. O'Brien, chair-
man of the Board of Supervisors,
and Mr. O'Brien stated that no
change would be made, however,
notice appeared in the local news-
paper the following day the Clerk
of the District Court had been ap-
pointed Local Registrar and so the
records were taken away from this
Department.
At the present time Mr. Marshall,
Local Registrar, has not only Julien
Township, which includes the City
of Dubuque but also the townships
of Center, Dubuque, Mosalem, Wash-
ington, Prairie Creek, Vernon, ,and
Table Mound. It can therefore, be
seen that all of the Vital Statistics
which are recorded in the Clerk's
office include a number of rural town-
ships and have no bearing on the
City of Dubuque.
Since April, 1928, this department
has been attempting to include Vital
Statistics in our monthly reports, but
these Vital Statistics necessarily in-
clude seven rural townships and we
have no way of separating the city
statistics fro&the county statistics.
This Department is primarily in-
terested in what is actually going
on in the City so that we may have
some definite knowledge of what our
health conditions are at any partic-
ular time.
It is obviously unfair to have the
city's infant mortality rate increased
by infant deaths which may occur in
any of the seven townships men-
tioned above.
The Health Department of any
City is the logical place for the keep-
ing of Vital Statistics pertaining to
that particular City.
The above mentioned statute went
into effect this month and I would
appreciate it very much if you would
call the attention of the City Coun-
cil sitting as a Board of Review to
the amended section 2389 in refer-
ence to the appointment of the
Health Director as the Registrar of
Vital Statistics for the City of Du-
buque.
Respectfully yours,
W. J. CONNELL,
Director of Health,
City Health Department.
Councilman McEvoy moved that
Robert P. Marshall, County Clerk, be

C. E. Rhoades presented a commu-
nichtion and addressed the Council,
representing the Automobile Club,
relative to improving the boulevard
system in Dubuque.
Some Suggestions for Improvement
of the Boulevard System in
Dubuque.
—1—
The first and most important sug
gestion would be the making of the
arterial route on 14th Street from
Locust to Jackson Street a boule.
vard or through street. The reason
for this suggestion is that it is the
usual custom all over the country for
an arterial highway to be a 'stop"
street, and tourists and strangers
traveling these numbered routes are
so accustomed to consider an arter-
ial highway a stop street that there
is imminent danger in their taking
for granted that they have the right
of way over the streets crossing 14th
between Jackson and Locust that
some serious accidents will occur in
the future.
—2—
The second suggestion is to elim-
inate 8th and 11th Streets are boule-
vards from Locust Street east. There
is no particular reason why these
streets should be boulevards.
—3—
The third suggestion is the lower-
ing of the stop signs at Jackson
Boulevard at the earliest possible.
moment convenient to the City to a
height not exceeding the height rec-
ommended by the highway engineers
so as to place these signs within
easy vision of motorists.
—4—
The fourth suggestion is the pas-
sage of an ordinance prohibiting the
parking within twenty-five feet of a
Loulevard stop sign. The reason of
this is because the obscuring of the
stop sign may cause somebody to
injure someone, even though they
are familiar with the fact that a
stop sign is there. It might slip their
mind and cause a serious accident.
We firmly believe this will work no
hardship that is not more than com-
pensated for by the factor of added
safety.
—5—
The fifth suggestion is that there
be a distinction between a boulevard
and a through street or arterial high-
way. We would suggest the making
of Grandview Boulevard and Jackson
Boulevard, boulevards in the truest
sense of the word by not allowing
any commercial traffic on these
boulevards.
The rest of the present boulevards,
following the changes suggested, we
would suggest designating them as
either through streets or arterial
highways, and allowing commercial
traffic on them the same as pleasure
car traffic.
The "No Left Turn" signs on Stop
and Go lights should be lighted.
These are just a few of the sug-
gestions that ought to be considered
for the bettering of the boulevard
:•ystem.
After considerable debate on the
subject., the matter was referred to
the City Solicitor to revise the
Street Traffic Ordinance. No further
action was taken at this time.
Dr. Connell, Health Director, ad-
dressed the Council relative to the
Registrar of Vital Statistics, stating
that the office of Vital Statisics in
356 Special Session,
the City of Dubuque should be lo-
cated in the Health Office in the
City Hall. The matter was laid over
to the next meeting of the Council.
No motion.
City Manager Kratz reported on
the matter of R. Mathis, stating that
when Kaufmann Avenue was im-
proved and widened some years ago
the City used some of his land to
widen the street for which he claims
he never received anything. He is
willing, however, to deed this prop-
erty to the City providing the City
cancel an assessment levied against
him for the construction of the sani-
tary sewer in Reeder Street amount-
ing to $155.44 and $10.00 on the Val-
ley Street sewer amounting to
$165.44.
Councilman Meuser moved that
the City Manager be empowered to
make this deal with Mr. Mathis and
procure a deed for said property
taken to widen Kaufmann Avenue.

PETITION.
City Council, Dubuque, Iowa:
Gentlemen: We, the Dubuque
Automobile Club, representing thir-
teen hundred members, petition the
removal of the Stop and Go lights at
Fourth and Main Streets. Our rea-
sons for this petition are these: We
do not believe the traffic is heavy
enough to necessitate Stop and Go
lights at this intersection. The in.
cline leading up to the Stop and Go
lights from the east is a dangerous
incline to stop on and much diffi-
culty is experienced by motorists
who have to stop here in getting
started. We believe that stop signs
placed on Main Street, stopping the
Main Street traffic will be sufficient
and comply with the state law.
We also petition the removal of
the Stop signs on Locust. Street from
Delhi and Asbury Streets in north-
erly, easterly and southerly direc-
tions on St. Ambrose and Locust
Streets to Fourteenth Street. The
reason for this petition is that stop
signs were placed there originally
when this was an arterial highway,
and as this is not an arterial high-
way at present, we do not believe
that they serve any reasonable pur-
pose and just add an additional cost
and expense to the city and create
unnecessary restrictions on the mo-
torists of the community.
Hoping the City Council will act
on this as soon as possible, we re-
main
Very truly yours,
DUBUQUE AUTOBILE CLli13.

Communication of J. F. Stampfer
relative to a letter sent him by City
Manager relative to vacating a strip
of ground for street purpose on Hill
Street.
Lot 4 which they own has a front-
age of only 67 feet on Hill Street and
it would hardly be good judgement
on their part to deed a 10 foot strip
from that narrow strip to be used for
a street which would be of very little
value to their particular property.
The rear of the property is very low
and would never be of any great
value even were the proposed street
cut through.
It is not their intention to stand in
the way of any improvement but
neither do they feel that they should
be expected to donate ten feet of
property for the benefit of the pro-
perty owners in that district.
They suggest that the Manager ad-
vise those interested property own-
ers to consider the purchase of this
property which can be purchased at
a very reasonable figure.
Signed by the J. F. Stampfer Co.,
by T. M. Stampfer.
Councilman Jansen moved that the
communication be received and filed.
Seconded by Councilman McEvoy.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor pro -tem Meuser,

Gentlemen;
The undersigned being the owners
of all the property subject to as-
sessment for the improvement of the
west side of Central Avenue between
3rd and 4th Streets, do hereby ob-
ject to the removal of the six inch
concrete base on the west side of the
street and waive any objection to the
levy of the assessment if said base is
allowed to remain, with the under-
standing that the contractor will al-
low and credit the value of the con-
crete base as measured and com-
puted by your City Engineer. It is
our contention, based upon the opin-
ion of competent authority, that the
pavement will be more substantial
If the old base is left in place.

September 16, 1929.
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council.
Gentlemen:
Upon report of Mr. Geo. W. Ken-
nelly, the electrical contractor on
Central Avenue, in which he report-
ed that the James F. Lee Paving
Company had omitted a conduit
crossing Central Avenue on the
north line of 10th Street, the Coun-
cil directed me, as Citi• Manager, to
write to Mr. Lee calling his atten-
tion to the fact. I notified him to
to have the conduits installed before
the west side of Central Avenue was
paved as a result the attached letter
was mailed to Mr. Lee.
Disregarding this letter, Mr. Lee
proceeded to cut a hole in the new
pavement above the conduit crossing
the center strip. Regardless of the
452 Special Session, September 16th, 1929
fact that he had sufficient time to
drive the Conduit under the pave-
ment before he paved the west side
of Central Avenue, he proceeded to
pave the intersection of 10th Street
without installing the conduit, thus
disregarding the Engineer's orders.
Mr. Lee informs us that he intends
to excavate the sidewalk on the east
side of Central Avenue and tunnel
or bore under the paving to con-
nect up the paving crossing the cen-
ter strip.
Due to the fact that Mr. Lee dis-
regarded our instructions and due
to the fact that he has done this
many times before, I recommend
that Mr. Lee be required to excavate
the entire pavement slab which he
injured by excavating a hole in same
to be replaced by a slab, which is in
accordance with the Council's in-
structions to me and in accordance
with my letter to him.
The purpose of installing conduits
under the pavement is to illiminate
cutting the pavement after the new
Pavement has been laid.
Mr. Lee has defeated this purpose
by excavating the pavement directly
same had been installed and there-
fore the property owners will be re-
quired to pay for a patched pave-
ment.
Mr. Lee's continual refusal to com-
ply with written and verbal orders
from the Engineer and myself given
by the City, is demoralizing our En-
gineering staff and I certainly hope
that in this case the Council will up-
hold us in the recommendation that
Mr. Lee be required to remove the
entire slab.
Respectfully submitted,
0. A. KRATZ,
City Manager.

ager be made a matter of record.

PETITION AND WAIVER.
The undersigned being the owners
of real estate in the City of Dubuque
subject to assessment for the im-
provement of Central Avenue from
Eighteenth Street to Twenty-second
Street, hereby petition your Honor-
able Body to increase the width of
said pavement within said district
from 40 feet to 44 feet between the
curbs and in consideration of the
granting of this petition, each of the
undersigned, for himself, his execut-
or, purchaser or assigns, hereby
agrees that such additional pave-
ment may be laid under the existing
contract with the James F. Lee Pav-
ing Company, at the same price per
square yard as is provided for in
said contract and that each of the
undersigned waives any objections
he may have to the widening of said
pavement and assessing the cost
thereof to the undersigned due to
the fact that such additional paving
was not provided for in the contract
or in any prior proceeding taken
thereto or for any cause whatsoever
and each for himself agrees to pay
whatsoever assessment is levied on
account of such additional paving
without objection thereto for any
cause whatsoever at such time and
in such manner as they are permit-
ted to pay street assessments under
the laws of Iowa, the intention here-
of being to permit the widening of
said street, the paving of the same at
the increased width and the waiving
of any objection to the payment of
the cost thereof for any reason
which they might otherwise have.

les K. Petrakis, Geo. Ragatz, jr., et

Councilman Schuckert moved that
the rules be suspended to allow any-
one present who wishes to do so, to
address the Council. Seconded by
Councilman McEvoy. Carried by the
following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Andelfinger, Coun-
cilmen Jansen, McEvoy, Meuser,
Schuckert.
Nays—None.
Attorney Hugh Stuart addressed
the Council representing the objec-
tors on Central Ave., whom he stated
objected more to the street car turn
out at 19th and Central than to the
widening of said street.
He stated that the turnout was
originally planned to be on the east
side of the street and was changed
to the west side without their know-
ledge, that they would not object to
a diamond switch whereby the
switch would be in the center of the
street, as it is now there is no place
for parking an automobile. The
space between the car track and
curb being too narrow, and that they
want the turnout removed and a
diamond switch placed therein.
Phil Meyer and Albert Grutzmach-
er also addressed the Council, stat-
ing that the street was wide enough
when there were two tracks on it,
and that it surely is wide enough
now, since there is only one track
on the street and furthermore they
have some valuable trees in front of
their properties which they do not
want removed.
Relative to the Street Car track
Special Session, September 16th, 1929 453
turnout, Mayor Andelfinger suggest-
ed that as the turnout is already in
and cannot be changed without con-
siderable work and delay, that the
City Manager confer with the offi-
cials of the Street Car Co. and have
it so arrange its schedule that the
turnout will be used as little as pos-
sible.
Councilman McEvoy moved that
the suggestion of the Mayor be ap-
proved and carried out as suggested.
Seconded by Councilman Jansen.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Andelfinger, Coun-
cilmen Jansen, McEvoy, Meuser,
Schuckert.
Nays—None.
After considerable discussion on
the subject, the following resolution
was introduced and adopted.
Resolution No. 572-29.
Whereas it is deemed advisable by
the City Council of the City of Du-
buque upon its own motion and part-
ly upon the petition of property own-
ers, to widen Central Avenue from
18th Street northerly to 22nd Street,
from 40 feet between the curbs to 44
feet • and,
Whereas certain property to be
affected by the increased cost of
paving made necessary by such wid-
ening, have petitioned for the same
and waived the necessity of adopting
any preliminary proceedings there-
for, and expect to pay the added
cost therefor, and consented that
such work may be done by the James
F. Lee Paving Cmpany under its
present contract for the improve-
ment of said Central Avenue, and;
Whereas certain other property
owners have objected to such widen-
ing, which objections this Council
believes should be overruled in order
to provide a uniform pavement
throughout; and,
Whereas the cost of the widening
of said street will be assessed to
such property owners who have pet-
itioned for the same, but the remain-
ing portion of the cost cannot be as-
sessed to property owners who have
not petitioned for the same, will be
borne by the City of Dubuque.
Now, therefore be it resolved that
Central Avenue be and the same is
hereby ordered paved by the James
F. Lee Paving Company at a width
of 44 feet betreen curbs from 18th
Street northerly to 22nd Street, at
the same cost per square yard as is
provided for in the existing contract
with said James F. Lee Paving Com-
pany, and the Manager and Engin-
eer are hereby directed to arrange
with said contractor for the con-
struction of said pavement at said
Width and proceed at once with said
improvement, the same to be con-
structed in accordance with the spe-
cifications heretofore adopted for the
original pavement.
Be it further resolved that the /
cost of the extra width of paving be
borne by the City of. Dubuque in
each instance where the property I
owners have not filed a petition and /
waiver for said improvement, and
in every other case such cost shall
be assessed to such property, and
owners of which have petitioned for
said improvement and agreed to pay
the cost thereof.

Gentlemen:
At your meeting held October 7th,

al protesting against the improve-
ment of Quigley's Lane and Cather-

Quigley's Lane is opposed to the im-
provement while 68 per cent is for
the improvement, also that 30 per
cent of the property to be assessed
for the improvement of Catherine

while 70 percent is for the improve-
ment. I therefore recommend that
both improvements be granted.

I would therefore recommend that

or equipment where the capacity of
the tank exceeds 275 gallons, shall
have piping connections only from
the top of the tank and openings or
piping connections at points other
than at the top of said tank are
hereby prohibited.
Each storage tank with a . greater
capacity than 275 gallons when
placed on the outside of any resi-
dence or building shall be buried
under ground with the top of the
tank not less than fourteen (14)
Inches below the surface.
When fuel oil is stored in the cel-
lar or basement of any residence or
building and the aggregate amount

or tanks, containing the portion
thereof in excess of 275 gallons shall
be set on a bed of sand six inches

tions, and be provided with ample

gallons capacity cannot be entirely
buried underneath the surface of the
ground, as herein provided for, such
tank may still be located on the out-
side provided the same is entirely
covered over with earth to a depth
of at least two (2) feet at all points,
with a slope on all sides of not less
than three (3) to one (1).
'All tanks with a capacity exceed-
ing 275 gallons when located with
the top thereof above the burner

line leading to the burner so as to
prevent the flow of oil through said
Pipe line in the case of breakage,
accident or other emergency.
Storage tanks with a capacity of
275 gallons or less may be used and
piping connections may be made
from tank to burner from the bottom
of the tank to permit the gravity
flow of oil from tank to burner, but
in such case the pipe line shall be
equipped with an approved automatic
shut-6ff valve to stop the flow of oil
through the - line in the event the
burner fails to ignite or the flame is
extinguished. Such tank may be lo-
cated inside the building and shall
have no connection with any other
tank or source of oil supply.
An auxiliary tank may be located
on the inside of any building and
used in connection with a storage
tank, but the capacity of such auxil-
iary tank shall not exceed 60 gal-
lons. The oil may be fed by gravity
flow to the burner through a pipe
line loading from the auxiliary tank
to the burner, but in such event such
pipe line must have upon it an ap-
proved automatic shut-off valve that
will stop the flow of oil through the
Pipe line in the event the burner
fails to ignite or the flame is exting-
uished.
All storage tanks of 275 gallons
capacity or less and each auxiliary
tank shall be placed on substantial
incombustible supports, securely
fastened on their base so as to pro-
perty hold the tank in place and
avoid strain on the pipe.
Each tank, or tanks, of whatever
size or capacity shall be located as
far from any fire, flame or apparatus
capable of producing flame as the
condition of the premises shall per-
mit and in no event shall said tank,
or tanks, be located nearer than

ble of producing flame.

there are 78 cigarette dealers in the
City, that they pay $100.00 for the
license and if the Council issues lic-
enses to the chain stores, about 35
of these dealers will quit selling
them, which will mean a loss of
$3500 a year to the City, and he
hoped that the Council will refuse to
issue licenses to the A & P Stores.

A & P Stores who was in the Coun-
cil Chamber, then took the floor in

REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR
To the Honorable Mayor and Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque.
Gentlemen: The case of Alice
Peck a minor child, against the City
for personal injuries sustained by
her at 11th and Iowa Streets on the
16th day of January, 1929, in the sum
or $10,000 was reached for trial at
the present teem of Court.
524 Regular Session, November 4th, 1929
I made a very careful examination
into the facts and satisfied myself
that the injuries were of a serious
nature and recovery of a verdict
against the City in a substantial sum
was more than probable.
I found myself called upon to
make the best settlement possible
under the circumstances and I agreed
to pay the sum of $1,250 and the
costs in the case.
This has been accepted and if this
settlement meets with your approv-
al kindly have a warant drawn in
favor of Kane and Cooney, attor-
neys for Dora Peck, the mother of
this child who has been legally ap-
pointed her guardian, and also a war-
rant in the sum of $14.15 in favor
of R. P. Marshall, Clerk of the Dis-
trict Court.
The warrant should not be deliv.
ered until the guardian has been
duly appointed and order of Court
is submitted.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.

For information of Municipal Offic-
ials in Iowa:
MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT AND
ADMINISTRATION IN IOWA
There are more than nine hundred
incorporated muncipalities within
the State of Iowa. For these cities
and town the Iowa law provides
seven different forms of government.
There are also variations based on
population and location.
The State Historical Society of
Iowa has undertaken the compilation
and publication of a comprehensive
study of these several forms of mu-
nicipal government in Iowa. Under
the direction of the Society, thirteen
persons have co-operated in the pre-
paration of twenty-four chapters
which are to be published in two
volumes of approximately 600 pages
each.
Volume I deals with the legal stat-
us, forms, and functions of municipal
government, and with the powers and
duties of municipal officials. The
second volume is devoted exclusive-
ly to administrative problems.
To obtain first hand information
on the problems of Iowa municipal-
ities and the procedure followed in
actual administration, the writers
have made many personal visits to
cities and towns of the State. They
have studied the operation of mu-
nicipal governments, consulted mu-
nicipal officials, and attended meet-
ings where municipal affairs have
been discussed.
The writers of these volumes have
made a careful study of the laws, de-
cisions of courts, and official reports
relating to cities and towns in Iowa.
Since this work has been carried
on in the hope that its results would
be helpful to municipal officials, the
State Historical Society of Iowa is
Offering the two volumes to munici-
palities and municipal officials at the
nominal price of $3.00 for the set
Of two volumes. To other purchas-
ers the price is $6.00 for the set.
The volumes may be ordered by
municipalities or by individual mu-
nicipal officials, at the special price
quoted, by filling out the order blank
and mailing it to the State Historical
Society of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, )n
or before December 1, 1929.
Councilman McEvoy moved that
the communication be referred to the
City Manager with power. Second-
ed by Councilman Schuckert. Car-
ried by the following vote:

nue, South Grandview Avenue, Rush
Street, Mt. Loretta Avenue and
State Street stating that prior to
several months ago, the Interstate
Power Co., in pursuance of legal
authority, operated a certain street
car line known as the Dodge Street
line; that the service in said line
was approximately 15 -minute service
and at times 10 minutes; that sev-
eral months back the said Interstate
Power Co., without advising or with-
out having the consent of the City
Council, discontinued said Dodge
Street car line and stopped the car
service on said line completely; that
since the discontinuance of said
street car service the said power
company has substituted bus service
nn said line known as the Cleveland
Avenue Bus Line; that said Cleve-
land bus line is not supplying the
undersigned and other residents of
the above mentioned streets with
the proper means of transit for the
following reasons, to -wit: that 30 -
minute service is inadequate, that
the Cleveland Avenue bus is not
routed down Bryant Street and.
Dodge Street as the Dodge Streets
cars were formerly, but rather the
said busses are to make an almost
