REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF TRUST FUNDS
During the calendar year 1943 we have continued to con- sider from time to time the investments in the various Town Funds. We have disposed of one railroad bond, utilizing the Reserve Fund to take care of the difference between sales price and the amount at which it was carried on the books. We have made some further investments in Government bonds and have continued the policy of depositing small amounts in the savings banks. We have also requested the Treasurer to continue the policy of setting up a reserve fund from income and authorized the transfer to the reserve fund of premiums received on bonds sold at a premium and the use of the reserve fund to take care of the difference between book values and sales price when any bonds are sold at less than book value.
We continue to hold a substantial amount of money in savings banks awaiting the time when investments in satisfac- tory bonds can be made with a more favorable yield.
JOHN W. LEAVITT, Chairman, J. REED MORSS, J. SIDNEY STONE, Clerk.
