SELECTMEN'S REPORT
The duties of the Selectmen in the year of 1945 have been many and varied and although there are some things which have not been done which should have been done under existing conditions we feel satisfied with what has been accomplished. We refer to unfinished repairs to dam- age done by the wind storm of 1944 more of which, owing to a shortage of materials and labor, still remains to be done. We refer to repairs on the Exchange Building, the Band Stand at Brooks Park and removing debris from some of the beaches. We have hopes of carrying these projects through during the next year.
Our expenditures in some departments for the past year have been heavy, and we were obliged to ask for transfers of funds from the appropriations of other departments to meet our obligations. Reference is made to the Board of Health, Old Age Assistance, Aid to Dependent Children departments, and but for the transfers the expenditures would have exceeded the respective appropriations. We feel that a continued increase in the appropriations for the departments of O.A.A. and A.D.C. are necessary as the case loads in these departments are ever increasing. Expendi- tures in other departments have been as usual or less than in other years.
The appointed officials of the different departments in town have been efficient in the performance of their duties and in spite of lack of necessary help in many cases have functioned most satisfactorily. Due to labor shortage again we were for a while unable to secure a man as permanent keeper of the Fire Station but that obstacle has now been overcome and there will be an attendant on duty at all times.
Your Selectmen have been faithful in attending meet- ings of the State and County Selectmen's Associations. These meetings have made it possible for us to keep in touch with the doings of other towns - this has proved helpful in
-7-
giving our towns as efficient an administration as possible.
We wish to express our appreciation to the people of Harwich for their always kind cooperation with their Town Officials.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES D. HOLMES, CHARLES T. CHASE, HOWARD C. CAHOON,
Selectmen.
