Gentlemen: On March 15, 1943, Charles T. Landon filed a claim with the City for $320.00 for damages caused by one City T.uck going through a stop signal on West Third and Alpine Street and running into his car. The claim was referred to me and I recommended that the claim be denied on the ground that the City truck was being engaged in a governmental duty. The Coun- cil approved my recommendation. Since that time I have thorough~ ly investigated the law on this suo- ject and from my investigation and examination, I am of the opinion that the truck, at the time and place in question was acting in a corpo- rate capacity on behalf of the City and that the City is liable for any damage caused by the negligence of the operator of said truck.

Honorable Mayor and City Council, City of Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: In reference to the claim of Margaret Mueller for $200.00, from my investigation of this claim I find that on January 27, 1945, Margaret Mueller was waiting for a bus at Mike Sand's place of business on Central A venue. That she saw a bus coming east on Cen~ tral Avenue, left the place where she was waiting, ran across the street, slipped and fell near the crosswalk. She sustained a broken right ankle and has had conside:r, able expense. From my investigation I feel that if there is any liability upon the part of the City, which is doubtful, that claimant herself was negli. gent, and, therefore, not entitled to recovery. Gentlemen: I herewith submit the reports of the Auditor, Treas- urer, Health Department and Water- works, also a list of claims and pay. rolls for which warrants were drawn during the month of January, 1945.
