ANNUAL REPORTS
The ashes and refuse are being collected with motor trucks on account of the distance to the Medford dumps, which are being used by this department subject to the rules and regula- tions of the Board of Health of the City of Medford.
There is a general increase in the amount of ashes being collected due to the fact so many householders converted their heaters from oil to coal.
The trucks in this department have been operating for 18 years, and it is impossible to do the work with them, but with the co-operation of His Honor the Mayor, and the Board of Aldermen, we have purchased 6 new White-3 Ton Trucks with 12 yd. bodies, and money has been appropriated for 6 more. With this new equipment the morale of the men in the depart- ment will be better and the cost of operating should be greatly decreased, as far as truck repairs and hired trucks are con- cerned.
The total estimated collection of garbage amounted to 4200 cords. On August 1, 1942 the city entered into a new garbage contract, the contractor agreeing to furnish trucks and Chauf- feurs, the City supplying the Laborers and collections to be be the same as previously-two collections a week throughout the year from private dwellings and three times a week from restaurants, stores, etc.
The department as a whole is operating efficiently and with the citizens co-operation we shall continue to carry on in the usual manner.
I wish to thank His Honor the Mayor, the Board of Alder- men and the employees of my department for their co-operation extended during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN F. MESKELL,
Supt. Sanitary Department

ANNUAL REPORTS
REPORT OF THE STREET COMMISSIONER
Office of the Street Commissioner City Hall, Somerville, Massachusetts January 1, 1948
To His Honor, the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen :
Gentlemen :
I respectfully submit the seventy-second annual report of the Highway Department, containing a brief summary of the work performed during the year 1947, with recommendations for necessary improvement and equipment the coming year.
This department has charge of the construction, altera- tions, repair, maintenance and management of ways, streets, sidewalks and bridges; the setting out and care of shade trees, the suppression of gypsy and brown tail moths, elm leaf beetles and other pests injurious to trees, and the cleaning of streets.

SNOW AND ICE
All streets were plowed and opened for traffic; snow was removed from principal business centers as well as around all public buildings and grounds. Special requests for funerals, weddings or other occasions were given prompt attention. Ow- ing to so few dumping places for the disposal of snow, it was necessary to make long hauls from some parts of the city. This delays the work unless a large force of extra men and trucks
245
STREET COMMISSIONER
are employed. I recommend that better facilities for dumping be provided to save this additional expense.
Warning signs were posted on streets where coasting was allowed and ashes spread at the foot of hills for the protection of the public. Icy and slippery streets and sidewalks were made safe as soon as possible.
A new Snow Fighter with scraper-plow and sandspreader attached was purchased this year. The sandspreader can also be used for spreading calcium chloride or salt. More efficient work in the removal of snow can be accomplished with this piece of equipment.
A Jeep equipped with a plow and winch was purchased to be used for plowing and towing. It is a very useful piece of equipment.
I recommend the purchase of a snow loader. This would enable us to remove the snow from our squares more rapidly, thus helping our local business men.
HIGHWAYS AND SIDEWALKS MAINTENANCE
Police and public reports pertaining to all kinds of defects in the streets and sidewalks were given prompt attention. Gen- eral repairs were made on streets and on brick, granolithic and macadam sidewalks. Edgestones were reset, gutters relaid and dirt sidewalks graded, filled or surfaced.
The following work was accomplished by the Highway De- partment in 1947 :-
Bridges-Lowell Street Two bridges renewed, consisting of repairs, new wood deck and fence.
Bridge-Dane Street Retaining wall and fence.
Bridge-Prospect Street Retaining wall and fence.
Roadway-Highland Avenue Resurfaced under provisions of Chapter 90- Bituminous concrete, Type I. Entire length
The following streets were resurfaced under provisions of Chpater 44, Somerville Macadam Pavement Loan :

STREET CLEANING
An Elgin Street Sweeper was purchased by the Highway Department this year. There are now five sweepers in opera- tion, working day and night. In the early hours of the morn- ing, the main thoroughfares and squares are cleaned, thus avoiding traffic and parked cars, while the side streets are given regular attention during the day.
Six new push carts complete with barrels were purchased and are used daily in the various squares.
SUPPRESION OF MOTHS-CARE OF TREES
This department also cares for trees, both public and pri- vate in regard to moths and other tree pests. Gypsy and satin moth nests were painted with creosote; tussock, tent and brown tail moth nests were destroyed. Trees on the sidewalks were trimmed and removed on request. New trees were planted on request. Guards and supports for young trees have been re- newed where necessary.
I recommend the purchase of a new motor power sprayer. The present equipment is antiquated and requires constant overhauling.
TRAFFIC CONTROL
Traffic lines were painted and warning signs erected at schools, playgrounds and dangerous intersections or locations. Particular attention has been given to painting of cross walk lines in business centers and squares. Parking, no parking and stop signs at designated locations and safety zones were plain- ly marked.
MISCELLANEOUS
Permits were issued to the various corporations and con- tractors by this department, to open streets and sidewalks. Said openings to be restored to original conditions at the ex- pense of the petitioners. To cross sidewalks and occupy streets
248
ANNUAL REPORTS
for building purposes, permits were issued on specified condi- tions. Driveways for garages and filling stations were con- structed after the owners petitioned for same and deposited a sufficient sum of money to cover the cost of the construction.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend that, as far as possible, old brick sidewalks be replaced by granolithic. That the city purchase several trucks to replace the very old equipment now in use in the Highway Department. Snow loaders and snow fighters could be used to great advantage for snow removal thus saving large sums of money for rental.
In conclusion, I wish to take this opportunity to thank His Honor, the Mayor, the members of the Board of Aldermen and the employees of the department for their support and co- operation.
Respectfully submitted,
JEREMIAH F. MURPHY, Street Commissioner
