Here Is The Street Car Settlement
You Have Been Looking For
One System Covering All Lines. One Fare With Trans-
fers. Track Extensions and More Cars Without Waiting.
Service Under the Control of the Common Council.
Failing after years of endeav or to obtain from the Civic Authorities such co-operation as is necessary to make the many car line extensions required by the people of
'Detroit and all plans for the municipal purchase of a unified system having been rejected at the polls, the Detroit United Railway now appeals directly to its patrons, the people of
Detroit, for a prompt solution of the city's transportation problem.
Initiative petitions are now being circulated that you may command the Authorities to place before all the people a definite proposition of the Detroit United Railway
that will produce for the people the extensions and cars and service they want NOW. This ordinance calls for the following:
EXTENSIONS—Prompt expenditure of not less than 320,000,000 by the company for cars and track ex-
tensions, part of the materials for which the company now has on hand. The lines to be constructed are
those we have already proposed with such others as the common council directs.
PRIVATE RIGHTS-OF-WAY AND FRANCHISES—The company surrenders free of ant to the city Its
many private rights-of-way except those private rights-of-way as are required for the rapid transit of the
Flint division and Rapid Railway Interurban,.
ADDITIONAL CARS—The company agrees to add 550 double truck motor and trail cars to its equip-
ment and to replace all of Its single truck cars with double truck cars.
SUBWAYS OR ELEVATEDS—The company agrees to equip with tracks and cars and operate all
constructed subways or structures for elevated railways as built by the city.
FARES AND TRANSFERS—The present fares and double transfers to continue.
by the Board of Arbitrators.
BOARD OF ARBITRATORS—One shall be in constant organization and operation, throughout the con-
tinuation of this agreement, to fix valuation, rates of fare and pass on all matters affecting finances•
NEW CITY LIMITS—The five cent rate of fare with transfers will apply to the entire city Including
that portion now outside the one fare zone and alsoincluding such additional territory, when annexed to
the city, to Cadieux Road on the Jefferson, Charlevoix, East Warren and Harper lines; to Eight-Mile Road
on Gratlot, Van Dyke and Woodward lines; to Maple Road on Michigan line to River Rouge on the Fort
and West Jefferson lines.
SERVICE—The city reserves the right of directing and controlling the operation of cars as well as pass-
ing upon the types of cars 92 be used. The company also agrees to pave and sprinkle between tracks.
EXPENDITURES—The city through proper authorities may except to any expenditure by the company
Including those of management.
MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP—The city reserves the right to purchase or lease the city system during
the life of the contract at fixed definite figures.
LIMITED RETURNS--The company is limited to six per cent Interest upon the value of the property
as determined by the Board of Arbitrators. This valuation covers only such property as is necessary for
the operation of the city system.
INTERURBAN CARS—The operation of Interurban cars upon the streets of the city is under the con-
trol of the Common Council.
FORD SYSTEM—The company agrees to install at any time the Ford or any other power system that
may be developed to produce economical and efficient operation.
GRADE SEPARATION—The company agrees to co - operate with the city and bear Its Just portion of
expenses of all grade separation undertakings.
HIGHLAND PARK AND HAMTRAMCK — The rates of fare and transfer reguiations In effect in the
of Detroit shall apply to Highland Park and the village of Hamtramck and should these municipali-
ties be annexed to Detroit the company will surrender all existing franchises in such municipalities.
City
SEPARATE CITY SYSTEM—In order to avoid any possible confusion of accounts the company agrees
to completely separate the city from the interurban systems by the organization of a new company hav-
ing to do only with the property and service of the city system. These city accounts shall be open to the
Inspection of the common council and a monthly statement showing the results of operation shall be filed
with the Common Council.
ELECTION—This proposition will not appear upon the ballot at the election of April 5, but will be
voted on at an election to be called by the common council.
