I recommend these matters to your careful consideration.
SCHOOLS.
Living in a country peopled by representatives of all races and under a form of government one of whose basic principles is popular and almost unlimited suffrage, our hope for the stability and perpetuity of our institutions must be found in the moral enlightenment and education of the people.
27
In the spread of popular education, Quincy in the future as in the past, must do its share. The public schools of Quin- cy for years have enjoyed an enviable reputation for excel- lence, and we are justly proud of their high standard.
The amount of money annually apppropriated in support of our schools, when compared with the other items of the budget, to some may seem disproportionately large, but judged by the results obtained, there is no expenditure of the tax payers' money which brings a greater return or confers a more lasting benefit.
Let us this year provide a proper appropriation for the schools, and so do our part towards maintaining their stand- ard that they may, if possible, rank second to none in the Commonwealth.
I recommend that the Council make provisions for a new schoolhouse for the westerly section of Ward 2, and also a new one for the Adams School District of Ward 3.
BOARD OF HEALTH.
In a City of the importance of Quincy, with its large cos- mopolitan population, covering an area of 16 7-10 miles, and having diversified industries, the work of the Board of Health is intimately associated with the comfort and health of the people.
The policy of the Commonwealth in recent years has been to enlarge the powers and correspondingly increase the responsibility of this Board. The City recognizing this fact, has recently increased the salary of the Chairman of the Board. In the future, he will be required to devote more time to the affairs of his office.
With much of the work of this department, it being lo- cal in its character, although not so in its effect, the public does not actively interest itself, but with the discharge of cer-
28
tain of its functions, such as the care of cesspools, and the charge therefor, the collection of garbage and ashes, the peo- ple of all sections of the City are vitally concerned and prop- erly so.
There does not seem to me to be any valid reason why this work cannot be done in a manner which will meet with the approbation of the public.
I believe that the cperative force should be reorganized, and an experienced and competent foreman appointed, who, under the direction of the Board, should have general charge of the cleaning out of cesspools and the collection of garbage and ashes. If this policy is adopted. I believe the work can be done efficiently and economically, and without any friction between the department and the public, and in such a manner as to give general satisfaction.
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
The recent action of the City in extending the provision of the civil service law to the office of Chief of Police, should, in my opinion, materially improve the discipline of the force, and thereby increase its effectiveness.
The police force should be maintained at such numerical strength as to afford full and complete police protection both day and night to all sections of the City.
There are but few expenditures of public money which means more to the citizens than that expended in maintaining an active, well disciplined and intelligent police force.
Efficiency in this department should receive the same recognition as in the other branches of the public service, and on the other hand. any negligence in the discharge of his duty by a member of the force should be dealt with summarily.
I shall give the rules and regulations governing this de- partment, as well as the manner in which it discharges the
29
public duties devolving on it, my earnest and careful consid- eration.
There is no reason why we should not have in Quincy as efficient and competent a police force as any city in the Com- monwealth.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The effective suppression of fires requires not only that the apparatus should arrive at the scene of the conflagration as soon as possible after the alarm is given, but when it gets there, a sufficient number of trained and experienced men should be available to at once deal intelligently with the fire. To that end I believe there should be assigned to each fire sta- tion a number of permanent men so that when the apparatus leaves the station it may be accompanied by a proper number of permanent men belonging to the force. I, therefore, not- withstanding the recent increase authorized by the Council of 1911, recommend and urge that at least six permanent men be added to the force.
If the Council adopts this recommendation, it may prop- erly think it unnecessary to maintain the present number of call men.
I believe it will materially assist the work of this depart- ment if all the wires of the public service corporations are placed underground, and I suggest that legislation to that end be adopted.
I believe that the Chief of the Fire Department should have an office at the Central Fire Station, and unless else- where in the performance of the duties of his office, should be there during each day.
30
POOR DEPARTMENT.
As the City increases in population, so inevitably will the demands on this department annually increase.
The worthy unfortunates who in their struggle against adversity, are compelled to seek aid from the City, should re- ceive our assistance promptly.
Quincy is fortunate in having several well-organized charitable associations. These organizations are doing a great amount of good work along their chosen lines.
The charitable, self-sacrificing spirit, which prompts the. ladies and gentlemen connected with these organizations to de- vote so much of their time and money to the great cause of charity, merits and should receive our public commendation. Mutual co-operation between these organizations and the Poor Department in relieving the poor should be fostered and en- couraged.
The Council should make such an appropriation for this Department as will enable it to meet the demands which may be made upon it during the coming year.
NO LICENSE.
Quincy is distinctively a no license city, and such, I trust, it will always remain.
As a means to that end, all the laws against the illegal sale and transportation of intoxicating liquor should be strict- ly and impartially enforced. So long as I am Mayor, no indi- vidual or association shall be above the law.
Our police force should be able to cope with and prompt- ly suppress any violation of the liquor laws, and I shall hold them to the full performance of their duty in that respect. Any citizen having knowledge of any violation of these
31
laws will be doing a public duty in making the same known to the Mayor, or Chief of Police, and will thereby be co-oper- ating in upholding the law and enforcing the will of the people.
WATER FRONT.
Quincy's water front with its great commercial advan- tages should be developed as soon as practicable.
Public landings and a public wharf or dock large enough to accommodate the needs of our growing industries should be built at an early date.
In locating this work, regard should be had to the feasi- bility of making proper railroad connections with it.
I regard this matter of such great importance that I be- lieve the different business organizations should be invited not only to give us the benefit of their judgment concerning the same, but also the assistance of their co-operation.
NEW INDUSTRIES.
Quincy's advantages as a manufacturing center should be properly advertised, and if this is done I believe many new industries may be induced to locate here. I suggest that a com- mittee of the Council be appointed to co-operate with the Board of Trade in this matter.
TAXES.
I am strongly impressed with the view that a more thor- ough method may be adopted for determining the amount of taxes each taxable person of the City should pay. The small
32
property owner, with his home and little lot of land, in plain view of the assessors, pays to its full value on all his taxable property, but can that be said with equal truth of the man, who owns little or no real estate, but is enjoying a good income and some times is conducting a successful and very often a large business in Quincy, Boston or elsewhere.
Simple justice demands that each should pay his just share of taxes according to the amount of taxable property he may own.
I shall take this matter up with the Board of Assessors, and give to it the best thought and study of which I am capable.
HOUGHS NECK.
Certain residents of Houghs Neck have petitioned the Legislature of 1912 to separate Houghs Neck, Germantown, Post Island and a portion of the Adams Shore District from the City of Quincy, and to create a new town in that territory.
While I do not recognize that there is any merit in the · petition, or any probability of the Legislature granting it, nevertheless, it should be opposed. I recommend that the Council appoint a committee to act with the Executive in pro- tecting the City's interest in this matter. Gentlemen of the City Council :
I wish, at this time, to express to the citizens of Quincy my sincere thanks for the honor they have conferred upon me, by electing me Mayor of the City, and to pledge myself to carry out to the best of my ability the duties incumbent upon that office.
Quincy is one of the oldest communities in the United States ; her fame is world wide. To her great granite indus-
33
try has been added one of the largest ship building plants in the world ; besides many other manufacturing plants.
We should foster desirable industries of all kinds, and do all in our power to induce such industries to locate within our borders.
In conclusion, Gentlemen, the labors which devolve on us jointly can, with concerted effort, as far as our finances will permit, be solved. We, this day, assume a sacred trust. To us the grandest of all cities in the Commonwealth, Quincy, con- fides her destiny for the coming year. Let us impartially perform for Quincy her service, and our duty.
