<br />A group of taxi -cab owners and operators including
<br />Mr. Otto Moorhouse,
<br />President
<br />of the Cab Drivers Union and also
<br />Mr. Ernest Zick
<br />appeared before the Board
<br />relative to
<br />the hearing, set for this date, regarding
<br />cabstand for Ernest Zick. Mr. Hurwich first
<br />reviewed the previous proceedings
<br />of the Board
<br />regarding cabstand for 1r. Zick,
<br />and
<br />explained that there had been an
<br />error in granting Mr. Zick a cabstand and
<br />the Board
<br />had rescinded its action and Mr.
<br />Zick was notified
<br />accordingly.
<br />•
<br />Mr. Zick was called upon first
<br />and he expressed a desire to get along
<br />with all the
<br />other drivers and asked that he be
<br />granted a cabstand to be shared with Tarr.
<br />Detzler,
<br />owner of one cab also. He informed the Board,
<br />that while he lived one mile
<br />from the
<br />City limits, he had telephone service
<br />and also
<br />a two-way radio communication
<br />in his
<br />car so he is able to receive the
<br />calls.
<br />.
<br />Tarr. Bert Liss, owner of Indiana Cab Co,�!pany, then was called upon and he stated '
<br />that he doesntt feel that anyone operating only one or two cabs is entitled to a cab-
<br />stand. He further related that while T`r. Zick was in his employ, his conduct had
<br />been very unsatisfactory and cited numerous incidents of overcharging passengers and
<br />creating disturbances with other drivers and that he had been compelled to discharge •
<br />him. 1r. Lou Ziker, who owned e South Bend Cab Company in 1947"and 1948, stated
<br />that his experience with !Jr. Zick,�so unsatisfactory that he too had had to discharge
<br />hin. for gambling and creating disturbances.
<br />Trr. Otto Tvroorhouse, President of the Cab Drivers Union, cited many instances
<br />where 'k.1r. Zick had failed to comply with the Ordinance concerning cabdrivers and also
<br />stated that he had had more trouble with this party than all other drivers combined,
<br />Mr. R. E. Cramer stated that in his twenty-four years as a taxi-driver, he had
<br />encountered more trouble with Trr. Zick than anyone else, and as a cabdriver his behavior
<br />was very unsatisfactory as he had no idea of Fair play. ,
<br />p� x�. Ed Ostrowski�h�, mr )
<br />threatened
<br />ski claimed he has been eatened any ti;-::1-Jr.es by r. Zick and had
<br />•
<br />also been engaged in a fight with him as Jir. Zick started it.
<br />Ernest Zick then denied all of these misdemeanors and claimed he had never
<br />struck anyone.
<br />Ttr. Hurwich read the Ordinance regarding light on the meter and warned the
<br />drivers that the meter should be illuminated at all times. Hurwich pointed out �
<br />to the group that the Board is interested in expediting the flow of traffic and that I
<br />maybe it would be better to consolidate some of the cabstands. A map prepared by
<br />Traffic Engineer, E. H. Tdiller, was then referred to which showed all the cabstand
<br />locations and Tarr. Hurwich stated that it is beginning to look like the cabstand
<br />situation is getting out of hand. It was the decision of the Board to continue this
<br />•
<br />discussion and refer the matter to E. H. Miller, Traffic Engineer, to revaluate the
