To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
Gentlemen: The wage scale for the
Street Car employes, established by
the Board of Arbitration last May, ex-
pires March 1st, 1919.
The men have presented a new
scale to be effective after that date,
which contemplates 50% increase
over the Arbitration Board scale and
which is 100% increase of the scale
scale effective when we came to Du-
buque, less than three years ago. Of
course, you know that our rate for
service, from which alone these added
wages must be paid, has evr been the
same.
To meet the requirements of the
proposed scale we would have to bor-
row the money to pay operating ex-
penses alone, with not a cent for in-
terest on actual investment, or for
depreciation. No fair minded man in
Dubuque will deny that such a condi-
tion is intolerable and impossible.
The men claim they cannot work
without the increased pay, we assure
you we cannot operate and pay it, so
that the situation is so grave in its
results to city welfare that we present
the matter immediately to you, who
alone can m ^et it with efficient and
sufficient remedy. While " in a great
measure this situation results from
the general war conditions, it has
been aggravated no " little by unwar-
ranted attacks on this company, which
have sought to create the feeling and
belief that we have indulged in "finan-
cial jugglery" by which we could be
and were exacting large profits which
are sent to "out of town profiteers."
So much of malice prompted these
harmful statements that no thought
was given to the fact that there is no
proof back of them.
The time has come for a show -down,
and the expose of these assassins of
public good by giving to the citizens
of Dubuque an accurate statement of
true conditions. This we call upon
you to do, with the assistance of any
public organizations which are
mutually interested in the city wel-
fare, and to that end we offer our un-
reserved co- operation. As a method
and basis of determining these facts,
we respectfully ask that you and as-
sociates, if any be wished, secure the
services of a reputable certified pub-
lic accountant, to whom we will sub-
mit our records and accounts which
will disclose our actual investment in
the property, and the detailed account
of operative expense. With these
two things properly and authoritative-
ly determined, there is a reason hope
that feasible avenues of, relief may be
discovered which will secure the con-

venience and comfort of the traveling
public, conduce to the satisfaction of
our employes, and maintain our finan-
cial integrity.
• We at this time refer only to the
railway branch of our service here, be-
cause it is there that the public wel-
fare is immediately threatened, and
where immediate action is demanded.
Later you will find us responsive to a
request for similar examination and
report on our light and power activi-
ties. Respectfully,

Dubuque, Iowa, March 28th, 1919,
To the Honorable Mayor and CitY
Council:
Gentlemen: I would respectfully
report that in 1918 an assessment for
cleaning snow was levied against the
D. Nickles estate, City Lot. 499, and
. that this assessment was erroneously
levied and would recommend that the
same be cancelled.
Respectfully,
James Lynch, Sidewalk Inspector.
On motion of Ald. Frith the report
was approved and the City Treasurer
instructed accordingly.
Communication of the Dubuque
Electric Co., as follows;
March 24th. 1919
To the Honorable Mayor and Board
of Aldermen Dubuque Iowa.
Gentlemen:
The agreement between the City of
Dubuque and ourselves, as successors
to the Union Electric Company, under
which street sprinkling by means of
a sprinkler car has been undertaken
during the past years, expired as of
May 1, 1917, and due to a change of
management it was inadvertly over-
looked until the summer of 1918.
Should it be the pleasure of your
Body to continue sprinkling a portion
of the streets by means of the electric
sprinkling car, we would indeed be
pleased to eater into such an agree-
ment.
The old agreement was made in
May, 1907 since which time, wages
have increased nearly 100 percent and
the increase in materials necessary
to maintain and operation has ranged
from 100 percent to 400 percent under
these conditions, therefore, it would
not be expected that we could continue
a new agreement based upon the old
schedule of charges which must be
modified in accordance with the fol-
lowing:
For each hour that the sprinkler
is in operation at the direction of the
Street Commissioner, or Sprinkling
Superintendent, the City of Dubuque
will pay the Dubuque Electric Co.
$22.50.
For each day, including Sundays,
during the sprinkling season (the lat-
ter to be designated by your Honor-
able Body, or the Street Commission-
er) the City of Dubuque will guaran-
tee the Dubuque Electric Co. a mini-
mum charge of $7.50, whether the
sprinkler is in operation or not such
minimum charge to be automatically
absorbed by the operation of tbree
or more hours in any one day.
The necessity of the minimum
charge will be readily recognized, and
existed in the old agreement in what
we consider a very complicated form,
which we have endeavored to simplify
in the submission above.
Certain repairs will be necessary
to the sprinkling car before it can
be placed in operation and we trust,
therefore, that we be advised as to
your pleasure at the earliest possible
date in order that should you desire
the service, no time will be lost in
placing the car in operating condi-
tion.
Yours Despectfully,
O. H. SIMONDS,
General Manager.
