ANNUAL REPORT
Report of City Forester
1946 Expenditures $4,191.90
1947 Budget. .$9,531.00
To His Honor the Mayor and the Municipal Council:
The following report covers the period from September 1 to December 31, 1946.
The usual activity of the forestry department for this period of the year is largely roadside trimming. In addition to the creosoting of gypsy moth nests, all dangerous limbs along important highways have been removed, thus elimi- nating any possibility of the city's liability through damage to persons or vehicles.
Attleboro must engage in a serious effort during 1947 to combat the Dutch elm disease. Although this menace is not yet found in our city, every precaution must be taken to prevent its entry. Careful inspection, the removal of dead branches, and cavity work, will be followed by two sprayings. We will keep in contact with the neighboring communities and in close cooperation with county, state, and federal agencies.
It is our intention to inaugurate a planting program. We have lost many trees since the hurricane. Systematic replacement is necessary and important. We hope to begin in 1947 a ten-year replacement plan, adding fifty trees each year. The many benefits to the city are obvious.
Respectfully submitted, Warren P. Hofmann, Acting City Forester.
Report of Electrical Branch Fire Department
1946 Expenditures . $12,294.75
1947 Budget $13,820.00
To the Board of Fire Engineers,
Attleboro Fire Department,
City of Attleboro, Mass.
Dear Sirs.
I herewith submit the annual report of the activities of the Electrical Branch of the Fire Department for the year ending December 31, 1946.
New boxes were installed as follows; Box 421 in the property of Leach & Garner Company. This is a privately owned box and connected to the interior sprinkling system. Box 15 on the front of the South Attleboro Fire Station; Box 44 on the front of the Central Fire Station, and a few of the older boxes re- placed by new type boxes. A number of our boxes were put out of service by automobile accidents and were either repaired or replaced. Also Box 311 at Walton & Lonsbury's.
The wiring in the U. S. O. Building taken out and a new underground ser- vice installed to feed the Honor Roll on the Common. New lights were installed in the closets in the second floor of the Central Fire Station.
On August 10th, Frank N. Hoyle, Assistant Electrician of the department resigned his position and on September 15th, Harold F. Wellman started work as instructed by the Board.
A Utility Extension ladder was purchased and mounted on the department line truck. This has proved to be a very valuable piece of equipment. Seventy to one hundred Underwriters' Tests were made on the various factory owned boxes during the year. All boxes in the system were given monthly tests as required.
Many changes were made in our outside lines in cases where new poles were set by the Utilities or in conjunction with sidewalk and street improvements.
Along the lines of recommendations we would suggest that in the future we should work toward the elimination of all of the older types of boxes that are at present in the system by replacement witli the modern type of fire alarm boxes. The old boxes, some of which have been in the system since 1886 are not reliable
69
ANNUAL REPORT
and are too complicated in their operation. Years ago these boxes were insulated for not over 2300 volts and as the voltage on the street has been more than doubled we have considerable difficulty when for any reason our lines come in contact with high-voltage wires. A sum of money to replace these boxes for a certain number each year should be made available until the entire amount of old boxes has been totally eliminated.
The line truck which this department uses was purchased in 1934 and should be replaced in the near future. The motor and booster brakes are in very bad condition and should be renewed. It is not good economy to spend the amount of money necessary on a chassis of that age. Would also recommend at this time that consideration be given toward installing 2-way F. M. radio in two of the department vehicles.
Because of the constant growth of our outside lines thought should be given to the construction of a bu lding to properly house the fire alarm switchboards and equipment as recommended by the Fire Underwriters and as outlined in tlie six-year plan. Along with the expansion of the system a new man should be employed as a lineman for the maintenance of our outside plant and to 'carn the care and upkeep of the systeni.
In conclusion, we wish to extend our thanks to the Board of Fire Engineers, the officers and men of the Fire Department and all other City Departments who have contributed their assistance toward the operation of this department.
Respectfully submitted,
William S. King,
Superintendent of Fire Alarm, Attleboro Fire Department.
Report of Wire Inspector
To His Honor the Mayor and the Municipal Council:
City of Attleboro Mass.,
Dear Sirs:
I herewith submit the annual report of the Wire Inspection Department for the year ending December 31, 1946.
Eight hundred and sixty-six permits have been issued for new and additional wiring and one thousand one hundred and fifty-four inspections have been com- pleted. Nine hundred and ninety-six meter permits for changes and one thou- sand three hundred and twenty-eight re-inspections have been made during the year.
During the year a large number of new factories have been constructed and numerous electrical installations made in some of the older buildings. Several contractors and electricians have been apprehended and court cases have fol- lowed for improper workmanship and other violations of the electrical laws.
At this time I wish to call the attention of the citizens and property owners of the City of Attleboro to the following:
"Under State Law and City Ordinance, no person is allowed to perform any electrical construction work, whether original work or alterations, without first obtaining from the electrical inspector a written permit to do such work and he must be licensed by the State Board of Examiners of Electricians of Massachu- setts." The use of extension cords and unapproved electrical devices should not be resorted to by anyone under no circumstances. Any one doing so im- mediately exposes his property and life to all types of hazardous conditions. When additional wiring is needed a reliable electrician should be called in at once.
In conclusion, I wish to thank His Honor, the Mayor, the Municipal Council, members of the Police and Fire Departments and all who in any manner contri- buted their assistance toward the operation of this department for the year ending December 31, 1946.
Respectfully submitted, William S. King, Electrical Inspector.

ANNUAL REPORT
Report of Public Works Department
1946 Expenditures $193.021.73
1947 Budget. $287,808.16
To His Honor the Mayor and the Honorable Municipal Council:
Gentlemen:
A brief summary of some of the work accomplished this year is as follows: 34.553 gallons of tar and 33.924 gallons of asphalt placed on our streets; over 1340 feet of drainage pipe together with necessary structures was installed; 5.109 square yards of granolithic walks and 172.9 square yards of ashphalt walks were placed by contractors: 5,831 linear feet of new granite curbing was set; 627 linear feet of granite curbing reset; also 113 driveway corners set by contractors.
Considerable cable guard fence and concrete posts were placed this year which is quite an improvement and provides more protection to the public. It should be noted that the concrete posts are made by our own force in inclement weather during the winter months. It is the aim of this department that in time all wooden guard fencing in the City will be replaced by cable guard and concrete posts.
We mentioned that last year was a peak year in water consumption and revenue received from same, but again this year considerable more water was used; 721.044.000 gallons were pumped from the West Street Station, the daily average being 1,975.463 gallons; an increase in consumption over 1945 of 7.4%. 1762} feet of new water pipe extensions were placed during the fiscal year. Seven new fire services were installed, 37 service replacements. and 80 new services placed, showing that many new homes have been built this year.
In the late Fall Mr. Edward A. Graustein. Chief Hydraulic Engineer, of the Thomas Worcester Inc., our consulting engineers on new water supply, sub- mitted a preliminary report of a long range plan for additional water supply. This report was referred to the Water Committee of the City Council and it is the hope of this Department that early action for this critical need will be taken by this body in 1947.
The Massachusetts Department of Health has very strongly urged that the City take steps in relieving the excessive demands at the Sewer Beds by some form of sludge tanks. This matter was also referred to Thomas Worcester Inc., for report and a tentative set up by this company was referred to the Committee on Sanitation and Drainage for early action in 1947.
For record it is reported that the Department received three new pieces of equipment this year. In August a new "Elgin" street sweeper was delivered and the favorable comments by the public on our cleaner streets proves its value. A "Gar Wood Load-packer" unit mounted on new "International" truck chassis was received in the early Fall. This is a rubbish collecting unit. On November 4, 1946 the City started its first rubbish collection and the remainder of the year was used as a trial period resulting in a fixed annual schedule for 1947. The printel schedule, and rules and regulations were distributed by school children and through various stores and the Department is most grateful to these two agencies. It is quite evident that the citizens of Attleboro are much pleased by this new service of rubbish collection. In December a small "Cletrac" tractor with wsidewalk snow plow attachment was received. Its value was proven in the few sturms that occurred this season. On order with a promised delivery in 1947 is a so-called "Elgin Eductor", a catch-basin cleaner. This equipment we are sure will be of great value for this type of work.
This Department notes with regret the retirement of two faithful employees this yitir: George Cook for 35 years Chief Engineer at the Pumping Station and Joseph Gilmore of the Highway Division, employed by the City for 28 years.
71
ANNUAL REPORT
The care and maintenance of the Pumping Station was always Mr. Cook's first interest, which was of estimable value to the City. Mr Gilmore first came to Attleboro as maintenance man for the A. B. C. Electric road and easily and effi- ciently fitted into other general work after this road was abandoned. We feel the loss of both of these men but wish them much enjoyment in their retirement so faithfully earned.
The Statistical records follow.
In conclusion I wish to express my full appreciation to His Honor, the Mayor, the members of the Municipal Council, Department Heads, the Press, and all members of the Public Works Department for theif co-operation.
Respectfully submitted, R. W. Mawney, Superintendent Public Works.
