Conclusion
The city has been very free from major crime during the year. A number of house breaks in the northern section of the city were cleared up by the arrest and conviction of the offenders and the recovery of most of the stolen property.
The Department suffered a distinct loss through the death of Patrolman Edward P. Cunniff, who was one of our most faithful and energetic young officers.
Through the courtesy and co-operation of the South Shore Ama- teur Radio Club, we have been enabled to conduct very valuable and instructive experiments in the use of radio as an aid to police work. Through the kindness of the members of this club, two radio transmitters were installed at the police station and tests made with receiving sets placed in police cars by the Sager Elec- trical Supply Co., the Graybar Co. and the Sparton Co. These receiving sets were installed in the cars by these companies with- out any expense to the city, and they have shown that the use of radio in police work is the greatest and most valuable step that
220
CITY OF QUINCY
could be taken in combating crime. I sincerely hope that some way will be found in the near future to combine with some of our neighboring towns in the installation of radio for police work.
Through the cooperation of Chief Sands of the Fire Department and his wire chief, I have been enabled to add considerably to the number of flashing red lights used to get in touch with sergeants and patrolmen while on street duty by using for this purpose the red signal lights which mark the location of fire alarm boxes.
In conclusion I wish to thank His Honor Mayor McGrath, the members of the City Council, the District Attorney and his assist- ants, the justices and other officials of the District Court and the members of the Police Department for their assistance in carry- ing on the work of the Department.
To the members of the South Shore Amateur Radio Club I will only say that I appreciate what you have done for the Quincy Police Department and I hope that your efforts will bring results in the not too distant future.
Respectfully submitted,
ERNEST H. BISHOP, Chief of Police.

Annual Report
During the year the Department suffered the loss by death of two members. Cornelius O'Connell and Martin Curry, both privates in the department, and their deaths are a distinct loss to the de- partment.
For the year of 1931 we had a total number of alarms, 875. The total number of bell alarms was 375, sixty of which were false. We had two two alarm fires and two three alarm fires during the year. The number of alarms is below that of the previous year, due to the fact that members of the Department were sent out and burnt places that were fire hazards and also due to the detail of men sent out by the Public Works Department.
While the number of alarms has decreased, the loss has in- creased, and that is due to having several large buildings involved in fire. The Quincy Market, Rollerway, Johnson, Bradford Build- ings and several houses had big fire losses.
We have in active service three White Pumping Engines, and as they have been in service for some time they are showing the signs of wear and will have to be replaced soon.
In my report of last year I requested that a new station be built at headquarters; as there are six pieces of motor apparatus
226
CITY OF QUINCY
stationed there the strain on the main floor is very great and has been reinforced from time to time. The accommodations for the men are not adequate.
There has been added to the Department several all-service gas masks and each engine company has at least one mask assigned to it. There have also been two McCaa oxygen masks added to the Department, and these masks can be used under all conditions as they supply their own oxygen. There has been one oxygen mask assigned to the Flood Light truck and also two elevator jacks, acetylene torch, Bullard & Davis inhalator and also an electric saw, making this truck equipped for any emergency that may arise.
As some of the buildings and apartments are of such a height that our present ladders will not reach, I recommend the purchase of an aerial truck to be stationed at headquarters.
I recommend a captain and lieutenant in all stations where double companies are stationed, so that an officer will be in charge of ladder truck when answering an alarm. As the Wollaston Sta- tion is the only station with that assignment of officers, I recom- mend it for all stations.
Report of Fire Alarm Department
The fire alarm system has progressed considerably in the year of 1931. Good work has been accomplished in eliminating weak spots in the outside wiring and steady improvement has been made in alarm transmission. The Central Fire Alarm office has been remodeled and a new five trunk line switchboard has been installed, insuring at all time an open line for the reception of telephone alarms of fire. The office is now in charge of three highly efficient and capable fire alarm operators.
There have been added 5,500 feet of underground cable to the system, giving additional facilities to the Police and Fire Depart- ments, as both departments are accommodated in one cable. Addi- tional boxes have been added to the system, bringing the total number of street boxes to 225. The Telephone Company, Electric Light and Street Railway have replaced hundreds of poles in the city, making it necessary for the Fire Alarm Department to trans- fer fire alarm, police telegraph and traffic signal construction from old to new poles. The teletype system has been in operation about six months, with marked improvement in sending out alarms of fire that have been received on the telephone.
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.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM J. SANDS,
Chief of Fire Department.

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF BUILDINGS
REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF BUILDINGS
JANUARY 1, 1932.
HONORABLE THOMAS J. MCGRATH, Mayor of Quincy, Quincy, Mass.
DEAR SIR :- I herewith submit the twenty-fifth annual report of the Building Department for the year ending December 31, 1931. It seems advisable, at the end of a quarter century, to take cognizance of the fact. During this period there have been 30,984 permits is- sued for new buildings, alterations, etc., which, under the Building Ordinance, are necessary. The estimated cost of the work done under these permits amounts, in the aggregate, to $73,158,349.13. It is estimated that these costs given on the applications filed are approximately 75 per cent of the actual cost of construction : under this standard the total amount of construction would total the sum of $100,000,000, which the City of Quincy has increased in the value of its buildings during this twenty-five-year period. The citizens, real estate interests and builders have cooperated with the Building Department, with the result that this construction, location and occupancy of the buildings in the city make a very creditable showing. These conditions also are very noticeable in the fire records for this period, which have been, owing to the fire walls, fire stopping, etc., as required in the Ordinance, been kept at a very nominal figure. The construction work of this year was, in a large measure, confined to the alteration and repairs of build- ings already erected. The prospects for the coming year seem to be that there will be a moderate increase in new construction in the near future over that of the past two years.
During the year 1931 there have been erected
145 One-family dwellings 145
7 Two-family dwellings 14
1 Three-family dwelling 3
13 Four-family dwellings 52
1 Six-family dwellings 6
167 220
Twenty-five mercantile buildings and two manufacturing build- ings were constructed during the year.
The Houghs Neck Congregational Church is now roofed in and about ready for finishing.
A new broadcasting tower was erected and one of the former towers was taken down in June of this year at the WNAC Station at Squantum. The new tower erected is the second one of this type ever erected.
In January the City of Quincy filed an application for a permit to build a four-room addition at the easterly end of the Adams School building; during the summer this was completed.
The Quincy Savings Bank constructed an additional story to their building in the square.
A small addition to the gymnasium at the Central Junior High was constructed this fall.
In September of this year the addition at the easterly side of the Quincy School containing eight additional class rooms was started and is now being finished and will be in readiness for occu- pancy soon after the spring vacation.
228
CITY OF QUINCY
In October the N. Y., N. H. & H. R. R. Co. started the work of constructing a subway under the tracks at the Quincy Station. They also removed the train sheds and rearranged the roof of the station and intend to construct a new type of canopy in place of that removed.
