Union Proposes to Draft Its Own
Regulating Ordinance and Go
Before People at Next
City Election.
The Jitney Drivers" Union still wants
& franchise to operate Jitneys over the
present routes along streetcar lines to
the close-in limits. In a communica
tion submitted to the Council yester
day A. A. Thielke, president of the Jit
ney union, gives the answer of the
union to the proposition made by the
Council that the Jitneys take a fran
chise on routes separated at least in
part from the street railway lines.
"The union's representative is di
rected to seek further negotiations
with the Council," reads the communi
cation, "to the end that franchise be
secured. If that is possible, and that
if the Council is not disposed to grant
franchise upon terms the union can
accept, then its representative is di
rected to earnestly petition the Council
to submit the question of what are ap
propriate regulations to the people at
the oncoming city election for their de
termination." The request is made that
in the meantime the Jitneys be allowed
to operate as at present.
"The union's representative," contln.
lies the communication, "is directed to
say to the Council that if .agreement
upon franchise terms Is Impossible th
union will require its attorney to draft
an ordinance proposing regulation of
the motor bus business that will solve
the difficulties in hand, and the union
will go before the people at the oncom
ing city election and seek the passage
oi such ordinance, it is rrantuy con
ceded ythat the meeting of all the terms.
In the terms expressed in the demand
of the Council, is impossible."
The Council took, no action on the
communication. A special meeting was
set for this afternoon at 3 o'clock, at
which time the application of Stephen
Carver for a general franchise for Jit
ney service throughout the city in full
accord with the regulation demands of
the Council will be considered.
