REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN


In submitting our report for 1922 we take this oppor- tunity to make certain explanations relative to several of the accounts therein.


It will be noticed that the appropriation for General Government is exceeded by $854.40. This was reduced from $10,450 in 1921 to $9,500 in 1922, and this amount would have been accurately apportioned had the charges for legal expense been paid in their respective years, but bills for legal expenses of 1920 and 1921, amounting. to $854.40 were presented and paid in 1922 which represents a little more than the amount exceeded in this appropria- tions.


The appropriation for Police was reduced from $6,000 in 1921 to $5,000 in 1922. Bills totalling over $600 contracted in 1921 were presented and paid from the 1922 allotment. This department was subjected to an unusual and unfore- seen draft in the protection of the Dreamwold properties during the period of public sales held on that estate this fall. Inasmuch as this was almost the only accommodation or expense asked of the Town by this estate in the many years it has been located here, your Selectmen did not feel justified in refusing the protection asked for. The expense attendant to this service amounted to about $250. New equipment for the department to the amount of $531 was also purchased. Deducting these charges from the amount of overdraft would leave the expenditures well within the appropriation.


Due to the fact that the Town has never accepted the provisions of a certain statute legalizing a police depart- ment, your Selectmen have not the right to appoint a Chief of Police and the direct supervision falls upon them. We hardly believe that the Selectmen are chosen for this purpose or that they are especially fitted for such control

Report of Selectmen


and we would suggest that greater efficiency might be ob- tained, were the Town to take such steps as would permit of the appointment of a Chief of Police.


Under the financial accounts of Health and Sanitation will be found the most startling overdraft that has occurred. With an appropriation of $1,200 it has been necessary to expend the sum of $4,072.98. From this total expenditure there is due from the State for subsidies between $1,000 and $1,500 dependent upon just what cases they may decide are entitled to State Aid. The greatest contributory cause of this unusual expense is due to the board of tubercular patients at the County Hospital, and cannot, and probably should not, be evaded. But there is no question that the expense and duties of this department are, and will be, greatly increased. It is an important department and pro- vision should be made for adequate means to support it. We believe that its executive officers should be properly paid for all their service, but as there seems to be confusion and disagreement as to just what service their salaries are supposed to cover, we believe it would be wise at the coming Town Meeting to more fully designate what duties their salaries are to include.


Respectfully submitted,


JAMES W. TURNER, CHARLES W. PEARE, ERNEST R. SEAVERNS, Selectmen.
