ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
The total budget for 1954, as estimated by the heads of the various departments, and submitted to the Finance Committee, amounted to the sum of $117,- 920.10. This figure would represent an increase of $12,180.61 over last year's budget of $105,739.49, which would mean an approximate increase in the tax rate of $12.00 if the Town's income from sources other than taxation remained the same as last year.
We studied and discussed each and every item on the budget, in an effort to cut as much as we possibly could. We found several accounts that we feel could get along on lower budget than that submitted to us.
The total of the budget recommended by the Fi- nance Committee to the townspeople is $111,321.10, an increase over last year's budget of $5,581.61, and a cut of $6,599.00 from the estimates of the various depart- ments.
The largest share of this increase is in the School Budget. We went over the entire School Budget with a School Committee member and found nothing that we felt could be eliminated. Most of this increase is due to the fact that a new teacher will be needed in Septem- ber, and an increase in the number of high school stu- dents.
Although the budget recommended by the Finance Committee would indicate an increase of $5.50 in the tax rate, and there is an unfavorable balance on this year's "Cherry Sheet" as compared to last year's, the estimated receipts collected in 1953 should nearly off- set both these items. Therefore, we feel that if the budget recommended by the Finance Committee is fol- lowed by the townspeople the tax rate can be held to approximately $58.00.
We wish to thank all town officials for their co- operation in submitting their reports to us and in mak- ing all their figures and records available to us. They were all very cooperative and helpful.

hood, including conditions as to distance from high- ways where removal operations shall be allowed, the method of removal, the re-establishment of ground levels and grades, and the planting of the area to suit- able cover. Any person violating the provisions of this by-law shall be punished by a fine of Fifty Dollars for the first offense; One Hundred Dollars for second of- fense; and Two Hundred Dollars for each subsequent offense, or act thereon.
SELECTMEN'S REPORT
We are pleased to report that the town is in good financial condition. The present outstanding debts be- ing the School Heating System and Fire Station notes. The 1954 Welfare budget calls for an increase in the Aid to Dependent Children and Disability Assistance accounts. There will be a decrease in the Old Age As- sistance account, the Temporary Aid and Veterans' Service accounts will remain the same.
The town made the following major improvements during 1953 : Established an Assessors' Office and Stor- age room in the School basement, constructed a Fire Station (the grounds to be graded when weather per- mits), and awarded the contract for a new Fire truck. For 1954 we recommend the construction of a class room in the school basement, the continuance of the Well program, and the installation of additional street lights.
We feel that it is important that the town estab- lish a Planning Board and have inserted an article in the warrant to that effect. We are again placing an article in the warrant to see if the town will approve a By-Law for controlling earth removal, for we feel that the adoption of this By-Law by the town is essential. We also propose a change in Article 1, sections 2 and 3 of the By-Laws, the purpose being to hold the annual
14
ANNUAL REPORT
business meeting and election a week later than at pres- ent so to allow the town officials more time in preparing their annual reports and recommendations for the com- ing year.
The possibility of making Jerome St. a dead end at the New Highway was brought to our attention and we opposed the measure strongly. We have asked that a new bridge be constructed over the Expressway con- necting Jerome and Plain streets, and because of the cost have been refused. The Commissioner of Public Works has authorized his engineers to study the mat- ter and propose some solution to permit access to that area of the town which would be effected. Senator Parker has been very cooperative in assisting us in this matter.
We thank all the Town Officials and others for their excellent cooperation in conducting the Town's business for the year.

ANNUAL REPORT of the TOWN OF BERKLEY PUBLIC WELFARE DEPARTMENT SOCIAL WORKER'S REPORT
To: The Honorable Board of Selectmen : Gentlemen:
In compliance with the rules and regulations of the Town, the Annual Report of the Department of Public Welfare, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1953
15
ANNUAL REPORT
is herewith submitted. As in the previous year, the ac- tivities of the Department have included the admini- stration of the following programs :
Old Age Assistance Aid to Dependent Children Disability Assistance General Relief
Old Age Assistance
The Board of Public Welfare is required to take a lien on real estate owned by an applicant or recipient as a condition of granting Old Age Assistance. The Board is also required to enforce any lien upon the death of a recipient, or his otherwise ceasing to receive Old Age Assistance.
During the year, 1953, an amount of $4,256.19 was received by the Town, as repayment of assistance granted.
The case load at the end of 1953, was 37 cases. The expenditures and receipts for assistance for the year ending December 31, 1953, were as follows:
Old Age Assistance expenditures $35,308.16
Old Age Assistance Cash Receipts :
From Federal Grants for assistance $14,930.64
From State for assistance 13,988.54
From Recoveries 4,256.19
From Refunds 230.64
From Other Cities and Towns 1,257.07
Because of the constant proposed legislation to lib- eralize Old Age Assistance laws, it is difficult to predict whether or not the costs in this category will rise dur- ing the coming year.
Aid to Dependent Children
At a Special Town Meeting which was held during the year, an additional amount of $850.00 was re-
16
ANNUAL REPORT
quested and appropriated for the category of Aid to Dependent Children. The increased cost was due to the greater number of cases, and excessive medical ex- penses.
There are 11 cases, representing 35 eligible per- sons, who are receiving assistance in this category.
The expenditures and receipts for the year 1953, for assistance, were as follows :
Aid to Dependent Children expenditures $14,670.21
Aid to Dependent Children Cash Receipts :
From Federal Grants for assistance 6,379.52
From State for assistance 4,133.37 From Refunds 33.75
A proposed plan for intensified services to Aid to Dependent Children clients during the coming year, may result in a substantial rise in costs.
Disability Assistance
Our case load under this program of Disability As- sistance remains the same as last year, namely, two cases. However, because of extensive medical care and supplies, the expenditures have increased considerably.
In July of this year, we requested the District Of- fice of the Department of Public Welfare for permis- sion, and it was granted, to transfer the amount of $1,- 500.00 from our Old Age Assistance Federal Cash Grant Account to the Disability Assistance Federal Cash Grant Account, in order that necessary grants for the remainder of the year could be taken care of. This transfer was highly desirable as an emergency existed, whereby there were insufficient monies left in this ac- count to meet our payrolls.
The expenditures and receipts for Disability As- sistance for the year 1953, were as follows:
Disability Assistance Expenditures $2,983.96
17
ANNUAL REPORT
Disability Assistance Cash Receipts :
From Federal Grants for assistance $ 931.88
Transfer from OAA Federal Grant a /c 1,500.00
From State for assistance 1,306.81
General Relief
At the present time, there are two cases, represent- ing three persons receiving this type of assistance.
These cases have settlements in another city, there- fore there is no liability to the Town for assistance granted.
The total expenditures and receipts for General re- lief for the year 1953, are as follows:
General Relief expenditures $2,316.49
General Relief Cash Receipts :
From Other Cities and Towns $ 532.92
Administration
The total expenditures and receipts for Adminis- tration for the year 1953, were as follows:
Total Administration expenditures $2,602.33
Cash Receipts for Administration :
From Federal Grants for Old Age Assistance $1,022.85
From Federal Grants for Aid to Dependent Children 289.65
From Federal Grant for Disability Assistance 78.78
From State for Disability Assistance 46.26
In concluding my report for the year ending De- cember 31, 1953, I wish to express my appreciation to Mr. Richard Perry, Chairman, Mr. Harold Ashley and Mr. Eino Silvan, of the Board of Public Welfare ; to Mr.
