MAYOR'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
Gentlemen of the City Council:
Two years ago the citizens of Quincy adopted a new charter, Plan A. At the time there was a difference of opinion as to the wisdom of making the change, but with two years' experience I am satisfied that while Plan A puts the city to unnecessary expense, in the way of advertising orders and ordinances and causes unnec- essary delay in having the same go into effect, on the whole it has worked well.
Under Plan A the necessity for a formal inaugural address by the Mayor no longer exists, as the City Council is now in fact, as well as in law, a continuing body. I, therefore, will at this time only direct your attention to such matters as I feel require immed- iate action on your part.
I submit for your consideration a statement of the financial condition of the city.

REFUND EMERGENCY APPROPRIATION.
The influenza epidemic compelled the city to avail itself of the provisions of Section 16, Chapter 716 of the Acts of 1913, and under authority from the City Council the Board of Health ex- pended approximately $60,000 in conserving the public health. The city was also compelled to repay to the Old Colony Railroad Co. the sum of $33,499.80 by virtue of a decree of the Superior Court on account of the excessive 1916 valuation of its property. The money so expended in both instances was taken from the general city funds and necessarily created a deficiency of revenue. This money should be restored to the city treasury, either by the city availing itself of the provisions of said act and borrowing the money for that purpose, or else raising it in the tax levy for the ensuing year.
Ordinarily I would be in favor of putting these items in the
6
CITY OF QUINCY
tax levy, but on account of the present high cost of living and the uncertainty as to what the immediate future may bring forth I believe it would be unfair to the taxpayers to raise the money by taxation this year. To do so would increase the tax rate by practi- cally $2. That, it seems, would be unwise, and I therefore recom- mend the council borrow the money under the provisions of said Chapter 716.
BOARD OF HEALTH.
In the fall, 1918, Quincy, in common with other communities of the state, suffered from the influenza epidemic. The prevailing medical opinion seems to be there will be more or less influenza throughout the state for the next two or three years. Our health department should be so organized as to be in a position to cope with this scourge and render all possible protection to the lives and health of the people.
I am convinced that greater efficiency could be obtained if the work of the Board of Health was under the direction and con- trol of one competent official giving his entire time to the duties of the office rather than a board consisting of three members as now required by law.
I shall therefore petition the legislature for authority to create the office of Health Commissioner in place of the present Board of Health, such Commissioner to have all the power and authority now vested in the Board of Health and any that may be hereafter vested in the Boards of Health of the cities of the Commonwealth. And in addition thereto I would recommend that he be given direction and control over the inspection of milk.
During the epidemic our Inspector of Milk was unable to attend to the duties of the office on account of sickness. The city was fortunate, however, in securing the services of Councillor William A. Bradford, who in the interests of public health volun- teered and as the agent of the Board of Health supervised the inspection of milk stations and milk.
The problem was a new one for him and he approached it in an able and practical manner and in a very short time established a newer and higher standard of inspection. Mr. Bradford's work
7
MAYOR'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS
demonstrated the necessity for continued careful inspection of the milk delivered to the people of Quincy. Instances were found where drivers of milk wagons were suffering from influenza; at least two places which supplied milk were closed and in several other places cows were condemned.
Poor milk is a source of danger and in order for the city to continue to receive the benefits of the valuable work done by Mr. Bradford and the system of inspection inaugurated by him the inspection of milk should be under the control of the Health Commissioner.
As a large quantity of the milk consumed in Quincy is supplied from adjoining towns I have taken up with the Selectmen of these towns the matter of establishing a laboratory where the milk sup- plied to Quincy and such towns may be properly tested, the ex- penses to be borne by Quincy and the towns in proportion to their population. The Selectmen have expressed willingness to co-oper- ate with the city and I believe such a laboratory would justify the city contributing its share of the expenses involved in maintaining the same.
CITY HALL.
While our community has grown from a small town to a place of considerable size and is still growing, the facilities for conducting municipal affairs are as limited to-day as the day Quincy was in- corporated a city.
A few years ago the present building was remodeled. At that time the police department, located in the basement, was removed because the location was considered unsanitary and there- fore an unhealthful place for the officers and prisoners. Yet, in the remodeling of the building, offices of great importance to the welfare of the city were established in the basement.
It is not proper to compel the clerks and the different depart- ment heads to continue to transact the duties of their respective departments under such conditions as exist in the basement of city hall. While I am not favorable to the erection of a new city hall, I am strongly of the opinion that an addition should be made at the rear of the present building.
8
CITY OF QUINCY
A four-story structure could be provided at an approximately small cost, which would accommodate the different departments for many years. By the erection of this addition fire-proof vaults could be constructed in the basement, so that each department would have ample accommodations for the keeping of public records.
In erecting such an addition the present building would not be in any way defaced and the land mark which has stood since 1844 would still remain a monument to the memory of those who planned and erected a building most representative of our city.
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT.
The growth of the city and the consequent building of streets have naturally caused an increase in the equipment necessary to properly conduct this department. The accommodations at the city plant, off Sea street, are precisely what they were 20 years ago. No place is provided to store and care for the machinery and equipment, and it is exposed to the weather. It is time for us to consider the relocation of the city plant. I have had a plan made showing what it is possible to do in this connection with the land owned by the city at the old pumping-station.
If a city plant were established at this point railroad facilities could be obtained which would be of great assistance in securing materials and supplies. In one item, alone, that of sand, many tons of which are used annually, a great saving could be effected by having it delivered by railroad.
The city for many years has obtained its sand from its own land. It is expensive to handle and the supply is nearly exhausted. Sand which is now used for icy streets and sidewalks and in coating tarvia must be handled two or three times, and with a modern plant it would be handled but once. I appreciate the cost of establishing a new plant in South Quincy, but it would be so advantageously located and up-to-date the saving would more than pay the interest on the loan.
I believe the council has under consideration the establish- ment of a municipal garage. If you decide to erect one it should be erected at the proposed city plant.

MAYOR'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS
STREETS.
During the years 1917 and 1918 very little street building was done other than that of streets connected with the United States Housing Corporation development at Quincy Point. I recommend that a loan of $80,000 be made for the rebuilding of present streets and the construction of new ones.
I also recommend that provisions be made for at least two overhead crossings over the tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co. between Beale and Squantum streets. It is necessary for many people to cross the tracks between these points on account of going to and from their places of employment; reason- able and safe accommodations should be provided for them.
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
The building now used as a police headquarters is totally inadequate and is in a most unsanitary condition. The general condition of the building is a disgrace to the city, particularly the cell room and the entire lack of proper accommodations for women who may be taken into custody. Such women, although unfor- tunate, are entitled to clean and decent surroundings while detained.
The police department should be provided with proper offices for the officials of the department in which to transact their business. The patrolmen, when obliged to be at the station, are entitled to reasonable and healthy quarters. The present building does not provide them.
I am satisfied an inspection by the City Council of the building now used as a police headquarters will convince its members of the necessity of immediately providing a new police station. I recommend that plans be procured at once and the necessary appropriation be made therefor and a new building erected.
I believe the efficiency of the department would be improved by adding a night and a day street sergeant, and I recommend the ordinance relating to this department be changed to admit of this increase in the force.
CITY CONVEYANCER.
Two years ago I called the attention of the council to the necessity of establishing the office of City Conveyancer. What I
10
CITY OF QUINCY
then stated holds true to-day, and while the council in 1917 made a small appropriation for this work, yet no ordinance was adopted creating the office or defining the duties thereof. I recommend that an ordinance be adopted creating this office and defining its duties. This is an important matter and I trust you will act upon it without delay.
FOOD CONSERVATION.
Our country's entrance into the war forced a peaceful people with habits of industry into a great war-making machine. We in Quincy have been a part of that organization and our people have responded to every call in a most patriotic manner.
The supply of food was early one of the most vital problems. The slogan " Food will win the war " was adopted and the request came to Quincy to organize a committee on food conservation. Volunteers came forward and offered their services and a committee was formed, the accomplishments of which were heralded all over the country. Branch committees were organized for the produc- tion of food and where in times of peace there were but few gardens I am informed that during the summer of 1918 some 5,000 gardens were planted and cared for in Quincy by individuals.
A public market was established where thousands of our citizens obtained fresh vegetables at reduced cost. I believe Quincy has the distinction of having the most successful and up-to-date public market in the country, and it is a fact that our market has been taken as a model by many municipalities of the country and recommended as such by the Departments of Agriculture of the United States and of Canada.
Hostilities have ceased, an armistice has been signed and we all hope for a permanent peace. But the devastation caused by the war has crippled the power of food production in most of the Euro- pean countries.
It is our country which saved the world and it is now the duty of our country to feed the world. Our municipalities must con- tribute its share and the work that has been conducted so well by the food and conservation committee of Quincy must be con- tinued by the people of our city and encouraged by the city govern-
11
MAYOR'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS
ment. Later when I present the annual budget I shall request an appropriation for this purpose.
THE TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM.
The present deplorable condition of our street railway service is so well known to you gentlemen and I have so many times stated my views on the matter I feel there is no occasion for trespassing on your time by reviewing the same.
I am, however, keeping closely in touch with the situation and whenever it appears that the city can act to its advantage I will at once advise with you, for I feel this is a matter so vitally affecting the welfare of the city we must be prepared to act promptly and efficiently whenever the opportune time may arrive.
I entertain the hope that if the courts do not grant us the relief which we believe we are entitled to, the Legislature will, and by appropriate action restore to the people the right of having a controlling voice in the matter of transportation over our high- ways.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The council will recall that in 1917 I requested an appropria- tion for the purpose of completing the motorization of the fire department. The appropriation was granted and the department has been completely motorized and is now in a high state of effi- ciency. A comparison of the record of the department for the years 1917 and 1918 will readily show its superiority after becoming entirely motorized.

SOLDIERS' RECEPTION AND MEMORIAL.
The armed forces of the United States saved the world; it was our American boys who did it. Prominent among them were the boys from Quincy. Soon they will be home. We bade them Godspeed and gave them our blessing when we sent them away.
12
CITY OF QUINCY
When they shall have returned we owe them a public expression of the gratitude and admiration we have for their deeds of valor, heroism and sacrifice.
I propose organizing a committee of citizens to arrange for a proper celebration to be held in recognition of what our boys have done and will invite the City Council, Exemption Board, the members of Paul Revere Post, Grand Army of the Republic and the Spanish War Veterans, to become members of the committee.
While such a demonstration is fitting and proper and indeed justly due to our soldiers and sailors, yet the memory of it will soon pass. Therefore, I believe action should be taken by the city government providing other and more lasting memorials fittingly setting forth Quincy's contribution to the great world war and expressing the city's appreciation of the sacrifice her sons made for the great cause of human liberty and world democracy.
I recommend that a mammoth memorial Liberty Arch be constructed over Hancock street, at its northerly entrance into City Square, the arch to be suitably inscribed and equipped so as to be capable of being properly illuminated, thus constituting a monument that will stand for all time.
In addition, a memorial tablet, with the names thereon of the Quincy soldiers and sailors of the war, should be placed in the City Hall so that the citizens of the future may read the names of those who served the great cause.
Chapter 26, Section 28, of the Revised Laws, as amended by Chapter 2 of the Acts of 1915, permits a city to raise one-fiftieth of one percent of its valuation in any year for such a purpose. I doubt, however, if that act would enable us to raise as much money as would be needed. Therefore, I shall petition the Legislature for authority to raise a larger sum.
In conclusion, gentlemen, I wish to acknowledge my appre- ciation of the cordial relations which have existed between the executive and the members of the City Council during 1917 and 1918. Many times during those years I was obliged to call meetings of the council on short notice in order that public matters of great importance might be acted upon without delay. The members
13
MAYOR'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS
always promptly responded and their earnest and cordial co-opera- tion has resulted in our together accomplishing much for Quincy. I trust the same cordial relations may continue between the execu- tive and city council for the next two years and I assure you, gentlemen, I shall endeavor to do my pårt to the end that our city may profit by our service.
