During the year we had two deaths in the department. They were Chief Alfred L. Mead and Louis Nyhan.
For the year of 1930 we had a total number of 1,091 alarms, and four fires that were reported to us that were extinguished by the occupants without the fire department responding. We had 299 bell alarms, 8 of which were second alarms, and one was a third alarm fire. We had 728 telephone alarms, 60 still alarms and 86 false alarms. The number of alarms are increasing each year as we have had 167 more alarms this year, than last year. The number of false alarms also increased, as we have had more than twice as many as for the year of 1929.
In last year's report, the late Chief Alfred L. Mead recom- mended that the personnel of the department should remain the same and that the ranks should be filled up, and he recommended that five men be appointed to the department, but the appointments were never made, and as we have had two deaths in the department the past year we are short of men, and I sincerely hope that the necessary men are appointed soon.
Some of the apparatus in the department is showing the signs of wear, and three pumps will have to be replaced some time soon. In the budget that I submitted I requested money to replace the chassis of Ladder No. 3, and also an item for a new car for the Deputy Chiefs. Both of these pieces of apparatus are worn out and are beyond repair.
I also recommend that a captain and a lieutenant be stationed in all stations where a double company are housed.
I respectfully request that a new, up-to-date fire station be built at headquarters. The present station was built forty years ago and
217
REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT
at present is not large enough to house the apparatus and the men properly. This house was built for horse-drawn apparatus and does not comply with the law in regard to motor apparatus. The sills on the main floor have been reinforced from time to time, and at present the main floor and second floor are out of line. We have at present six pieces of apparatus on the main floor, weighing about twenty-five tons, and some time in the near future we may have an aerial ladder truck that will weigh about four tons more than the present one. The sleeping quarters of the men are crowded and the toilets and wash room are not adequate.
Report of Fire Alarm Department
During the year of 1930 our entire resources were called upon to keep abreast with the demands of service from the Fire Depart- ment, Police Department, Electric Light Company, Telephone Com- pany, Street Railway Company and local city departments regard- ing changes of city wires and cables. All demands were met as soon as possible, and all changes were accomplished with fore- thought of future requirements.
An impartial survey was made of all fire alarm box locations, and many changes were made in order that each box might serve as much territory as possible. Two hundred odd boxes must be placed very carefully when one considers the size of our city, the rapidity of its growth and the thousands of homes, commercial structures and schools within its limits.
Assignment cards located in each station were found to be of limited value due to wide differences in apparatus movements on multiple alarms, therefore, under the direction of the Chief, a complete card index system was installed.
Our underground cable system was extended by the installation of eight thousand feet of cable, thus eliminating miles of unsightly overhead wires.
As all our local city departments and public utility companies are planning major projects for the coming months of 1931 our plans must be enlarged proportionately.
Relative to fire alarms, the sounding of fire alarms at headquar- ters and the receiving of same should be done in a different man- ner. Changes should be made in the fire alarm building so that all alarms will be sent out manually. That will require a man at the desk twenty-four hours per day on eight hour shifts in the fire alarm building.
In conclusion, I wish to express my sincere thanks to His Honor, the Mayor, for the interest he has taken in the department, the City Council, and to the officers and men of the department for their cooperation and their splendid work.
Very respectfully, WILLIAM J. SANDS,
Chief of Fire Department.

CITY OF QUINCY
REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF BUILDINGS
JANUARY 1, 1931.
HON. THOMAS J. MCGRATH, Mayor, City of Quincy, Quincy, Mass .:
DEAR SIR :- I herewith submit the twenty-fourth annual report of the Building Department for the year ending December 31, 1930.
During the year 1930 there have been erected
160 One family dwellings 160
7 Two family dwellings 14
1 Three family dwelling 3
26 Four family dwellings 104
1 Eight family dwelling 8
195 289
Thirty-one mercantile buildings and six manufacturing buildings were constructed during the year.
The Fowler Building was constructed by the Eastern Nazarene College, on their property on East Elm Avenue, making a valuable and creditable addition to the college buildings.
The Houghs Neck Congregational Church Society have built a foundation for a church edifice on Manet Avenue which in all probability will be completed in the near future.
Early in June of this year the Protestant Episcopal Christ Church Society filed an application to build a Parish House, ad- joining the church edifice on Elm Street, which was completed in November on nearly the site of the previous one which was demol- ished. This structure is very complete and is a credit to the society and will, undoubtedly, be of inestimable value to the welfare of the Society.
In September the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Boston filed an application for permit to erect a School Building on the Saint Mary's Church property on Crescent Street; this building is now practically completed and is finely equipped for school purposes.
In November the City of Quincy started the construction of the new operating building at the City Hospital. This work has been started and when completed will be a valuable addition to the hospi- tal buildings which have been erected during recent years. If the Trustees decide to remove the original hospital building and replace it with a new structure, the City of Quincy can well be proud of the buildings comprising the Hospital group as they are all of modern and up-to-date construction and equipment.
This year has been a very quiet one for the Building Department in comparison with past years, but in view of the general world conditions the City of Quincy has maintained a very creditable position.
