AUDITOR'S REPORT
THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS DEPARTMENT OF CORPORATIONS AND TAXATION DIVISION OF ACCOUNTS State House, Boston
March 8, 1935.
TO THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN,
Mr. Winfield A. Schuster, Chairman, Douglas, Massachusetts,
Gentlemen:
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and ac- counts of the Town of Douglas for the year ending December 31, 1934, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, Gen- eral Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Her- man B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.
Very truly yours, THEODORE N. WADDELL,
Diretor of Accounts.
23
Mr. Theodore N. Waddell,
Director of Accounts,
Department of Corporations and Taxation,
State House, Boston.
Sir:
As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Douglas for the year ending December 31, 1934, and report thereon as follows:
The records of the financial transactions of the several depart- ments receiving or disbursing money for the town, or committing bills for collection, were examined, checked, and verified by a com- parison with the reports and the records in the town accountant's office.
The accountant's ledger was analyzed, the appropriation ac- counts being checked to the town meeting records of appropriations and transfers voted. A balance sheet, showing the financial con- dition of the town on December 31, 1934, was prepared and is ap- pended to this report.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The cash book additions were verified, and the re- corded receipts were analyzed and compared with the accountant's ledger and with the records of the departments making payments to the treasurer. The payments by the treasurer were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds.
The payments of maturing debt and interest were verified by a comparison with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file.
The savings bank books representing the investments of the various trust funds in the custody of the treasurer were examined and listed and the income was proved.
The tax title deeds on hand were listed and the amounts trans- ferred to the tax title account were verified.
The treasurer's cash balance on February 9, 1935, was proved by a reconciliation of statements furnished by the banks and by an actual count of the cash in the office.
The books and accounts of the collector of taxes were exam- ined. The commitment lists were added and reconciled with the warrants of the assessors committing the taxes for collection. The collector's cash books were footed, the payments to the treasurer by the collector were checked to the treasurer's and the accountant's books, the abatements as recorded were compared with the assessors'
26
records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger accounts.
A verification of the outstanding taxes was made by sending notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received it ap- pears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
The records of licenses and permits issued by the selectmen and town clerk were examined and checked, and the payments to the State and the town were verified.
The surety bonds of the officials required by law to furnish them were examined and found to be in proper form.
In addition to the departments mentioned, the books and ac- counts of the sealer of weights and measures and the public wel- fare, school, library, and water departments were examined and checked, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
The securities and savings bank books representing the invest- ments of the library trust funds in the custody of the treasurer of the library trustees and the Devise of Moses Wallis in the cus- tody of the agent were examined and listed and the income was proved.
Appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash, summaries of the tax and departmental accounts, together with tables showing the trust fund transactions.
For the co-operation extended by the several town officials dur- ing the process of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted,
HERMAN B. DINE,
Assistant Director of Accounts.
