These roads, 1,600 feet in length, are already con- structed and are abutted by property assessed for about $53,000.
The Finance Committee recommends the approval of this article, providing all legal requirements for their acceptance have been complied with and no land dam- ages are involved.

The Finance Committee recommends the approval of this article.
Article 44. To see if the Town will accept the gift of the property adjoining the Mill Pond near Wayland Centre, for- merly owned by Charlotte Adams, and more recently held by Edmund H.

Adams and Charlotte Adams, and will authorize the Board of Select- men to accept the gift of said property, subject to any outstand- ing taxes, to be used as aforesaid, or do or act.
The land under consideration comprises some- thing over 20 acres, part of which is brook meadow and unuseable. It has an assessed valuation, so we are advised, of $3,500. There is a pond known as Mill Pond entirely within the bounds of the property which is now used for ice and enjoyed by children for skat- ing. There is ample high wooded ground around the pond for picnicing and other recreation. This is the only place for skating near the center of the Town that is suitable for the younger children. No expenditure is involved.
The Finance Committee recommends the approval of this article.
Article 45. To see if the Town will accept the following gift : $100 received from Warren L. Bishop to establish the "Langmaid and Bishop Fund," income from which to be used for perpetual care of lot No. 85, Section C, Lake View Ceme- tery.

Article 46. To see what sum, if any, the Town will vote to transfer from available funds to meet any of the appropria- tions made under the foregoing articles.
The Finance Committee recommends the approval of such action as may be suggested by the Town Treasurer.

Constable of the Town of Wayland.

REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
The recommended expenditures for this year will produce a tax rate in excess of $30 per $1000 of assessed valuation. This is the highest rate and the largest amount ever appro- priated by the Town. The Finance Committee is still of the opinion that even with existing conditions of unemployment, the interests of the Town as a whole will be best served by a tax rate not in excess of $25, and it wishes that it might have accomplished this in its recommendations for this year.
The following comparison of expenditures should be of interest to the taxpayers :
1919
$ 55,278.78
1923
83,026.38
1928
129,595.26
1932
158,440.87
1934
163,313.90
1935
184,267.81
During the past three years the Town has sold for taxes 156 properties, and it now has title to 136, representing unpaid taxes amounting to $26,189.87.
Loss of taxable property in the Town during the year by removal, destruction and otherwise is estimated to amount to about $200,000.
Unpaid taxes as of December 31, 1935, amounted to $90,- 515.92 and unpaid water bills amounted to $8,159.22.
Articles in the warrant contemplating W.P.A. labor would require expenditures by the Town totaling $40,000, which would result in $8.00 per $1000 on the tax rate. The Finance Committee considers $20,000 to be the maximum amount which can be expended this year for this purpose. The Finance Committee, after very careful consideration of the facts and data regarding each article, has selected for favorable recom- mendation those projects which have most merit and which will come within the figure of $20,000.
23
Additional relief expenditures in the form of : Soldiers' Benefit, Old Age Assistance and Welfare recommended in departmental budgets and articles in the warrant total $26,000. The foregoing recommended expenditures total $46,000 to the Town, and will account for about $9.00 on the tax rate.
The original recommendation for appropriation for the Fire Department was increased $300 and that of the Police Department $450 on account of emergency work connected with the drowning accident at Stone Bridge.
The Finance Committee budget for the year 1936 is as follows :
