To the Selectmen of the Town of Norwood,


Edmund G. Dalton, Chairman.


Gentlemen:


The foregoing is submitted herewith as a report of the receipts and ex- penditures of the Town of Norwood for the year 1931, showing in detail the appropriations and expenditures and the receipts from each source of income. Also statement of the funded debt, temporary loans, information relative to maturities and debt, and balance sheet showing the assets and liabilities at the close of the fiscal year, together with statement of the treasurer's cash.


Electric Light Department


During the year 1931 a situation developed wherein it appeared certain payments were claimed to have been made to the Superintendent of the Department for material purchased. This claim was denied by the Super- intendent and the records of the Department did not disclose the receipt thereof. The incident was closed within a short time after its develop- ment, all monies due the Town having been accounted for by payınent to the Town Treasury.


The treasurer's cash balance as of December 31, 1931 has been verified by reconciliation of the bank account and amounts on deposit in banks as of the same date, and a statement in accordance with the requirements of the statutes is hereby submitted.


Pursuant to the provisions of Section 53 of Chapter 41 of the General Laws I hereby certify that I have verified the treasurer's cash as of De- cember 31, 1931 by actual count and have verified by reconciliation of the bank account the amount on deposit in the bank as of the same date. The total cash balance on December 31, 1931 was one hundred and ten thou- sand, nine hundred and twenty-two dollars and nineteen cents, ($110,922.19) as follows:
