AN ACT RELATIVE TO FILLING THE OFFICE OF MAYOR OF THE CITY OF QUINCY DURING THE TEMPORARY ABSENCE OR DISABILITY OF THE MAYOR AND TO SUCCESSION TO SAID OFFICE IN CASE OF VACANCY.
Be it enacted, etc., as follows:
SECTION 1. Whenever by reason of illness or absence from the state or other cause the mayor of the city of Quincy shall be unable to perform the duties of his office, the same shall be performed by the president of the city council; and if the president of the city council for like reason is unable to perform the said duties, the mayor may by a writing filed in the office of the city clerk, designate the city solicitor, the city treasurer or the commissioner of public works to act as mayor; and if the mayor fails to make such designation, then the first named of the last three above men- tioned officers, then performing the duties of his office, shall act as mayor. The person upon whom the said duties devolve shall be called "acting mayor " and shall possess the power of mayor only in matters not admitting of delay. He shall have no power to make permanent appointments or removals nor to approve or disapprove any ordinance, order, resolution or vote until within twenty-four hours of the time when it would take effect without the approval of the mayor.
SECTION 2. Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of mayor the president of the city council shall act as mayor and possess all the rights and powers of mayor, except that he shall have no power to make perma- nent appointments to office, or to remove any person from office, unless authorized thereto by vote of the council.

Upon the establishment of the hospital, the mayor shall appoint the members of said board for terms expiring on the first Monday of January in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth years following such establishment, respectively, and thereafter, as the term of a member expires, the mayor shall appoint a successor for the term of five years, from the first Monday of January in the year of appointment.

RESOLVE IN FAVOR OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF A STATE ARMORY IN THE CITY. OF QUINCY.
Resolved, that upon the reorganization of the national guard or of the state militia, however the same may be designated, the armory com- missioners be advised to construct in the City of Quincy the first armory constructed by them after the said reorganization, provided that there is then existing in the said city a unit of the national guard, state militia or whatever military force may be substituted therefor. (Approved May 15, 1919.)
COURT CASES
Prior to my appointment as City Solicitor, the Mayor, with the approval of the City Council, arranged for Mr. Paul R. Blackmur of Quincy to represent the City of Quincy in the case of Flaherty vs. Quincy, Superior Court, Norfolk County. The case was tried before a jury, a verdict returned in favor of the City, and the case is now pending in the Supreme Court on the plaintiff's exceptions.
Early in the fall of 1919 the City was notified, the Trustees of the Boston Elevated Railway Company proposed to assess upon it a portion of the money contributed by the Commonwealth on account of the deficit in the operating expenses of the Elevated for the six months' period ending July 1, 1919. The Trustees claimed that Section 14 of Chapter 159 of the Special Acts of 1918 authorized the assessment of a portion of said deficit upon the City and that the City would also be required to pay its share of any deficit the Elevated night have in its operating expenses for a period of ten years from January 1, 1919. Said Section 14 is as follows :-
SECTION 14. In case the commonwealth shall be called upon to pay to the trustees or the Company any amount under the provisions of sec- tions eleven and thirteen, such amount with interest or other charges incurred in borrowing money for the purpose shall be assessed upon the cities and towns in which the company operates by an addition to the state tax next thereafter assessed in proportion to the number of persons in said cities and towns using the service of the company at the time of said payment, said proportion to be determined and reported to the treasurer and receiver general by the trustees from computations made in their discretion for the purpose.
I attended a hearing given by the Trustees to the towns and cities of the Commonwealth on which it was proposed to levy said deficit, and pro- tested against the City being obliged to contribute anything thereto. The Trustees reported to the Treasurer and Receiver General of the Commonwealth that Quincy should be assessed $23,500, as its share of the deficit for the six months ending June 30, 1919. Thereupon I filed in the Supreme Judicial Court a Bill in Equity to restrain the Treasurer and Receiver General of the Commonwealth and the Trustees from proceeding to enforce payment of said money, and also filed a petition for a Writ of Certiorari. After a preliminary hearing before a single Justice, a stipula- tion was filed in these cases that the Commonwealth would not seek to collect any part of said deficit from the City of Quincy until the legal questions involved had been determined. Subsequently I prepared a petition for legislation exempting Quincy from contributing anything toward said deficit, which was presented to the extra session of the Legis- lature held in November, 1919.
97
REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR
I attended hearings before the following Committees of the Legislature in connection therewith:
Committee on Rules Committee on Street Railways Committee on Ways and Means.
The petition resulted in the Legislature enacting Chapter 250, exempt- ing the City of Quincy from the provisions of said Section 14, Chapter 159, of the Special Acts of 1918, on account of the operation of the cars of the Boston Elevated over the Victory Bridge into the Government reservation at Squantum. After the enactment of said legislation, final decrees were entered in said cases in the Supreme Judicial Court, dismissing same without costs and without prejudice.
Unless the Elevated acquires some other location in Quincy, the City will not be required, under Chapter 159, to contribute toward any deficit of the Elevated.
The following court cases, pending in the Superior Court January 1, 1919, were disposed of during the year; viz .:
City Hospital of Quincy vs. City of Quincy. Writ dated Nov. 29, 1916. Laban Pratt vs. City of Quincy. Petition dated April 2, 1917. John E. Smith vs. City of Quincy. Petition dated May 16, 1917. George N. Douse vs. City of Quincy. Petition dated Nov. 11, 1918.
Martha E. Hodgkinson vs. City of Quincy. Petition dated Dec. 13, 1918.
The following new actions against the City were brought during the year 1919, and on January 1, 1920, were pending in the Superior Court :-
Wm. F. Bennett, p. p. a., vs. City of Quincy
Joseph Ferrarra vs. City of Quincy
Catherine Flaherty, p. p. a. vs. City of Quincy
Joseph Flaherty, p. p. a. vs. City of Quincy.
Mary Flaherty vs. City of Quincy Margaret Gillis vs. City of Quincy
Alfred Hemenway vs. City of Quincy
Theophilus King et al., Trustees vs. City of Quincy
James Knight vs. City of Quincy Eugene R. Stone vs. City of Quincy
In addition to the foregoing cases, the following actions were also pending in the Superior Court on January 1, 1920 :-
Alma M. Anderson vs. City of Quincy
Bessie Eldredge vs. City of Quincy Besse Jaffe vs. City of Quincy Laban Pratt vs. City of Quincy
Frederick C Smail vs. City of Quincy
Arthur L. Thomas vs. City of Quincy
Henry Wheeler vs. City of Quincy
CLAIMS AND AWARDS
During the year many minor claims were adjusted and awards made without formal court proceedings in connection therewith.
During the year I have been in attendance at City Hall very nearly every day, and have from time to time advised His Honor, the Mayor, the heads of the administrative departments and the City Council as to matters concerning their respective departments whenever they have requested my opinion concerning the same.
