Every undertaking to be successful must have whole- hearted cooperation from all. Whatever success the under- signed may have achieved while in charge of government relief work during the past four years he cheerfully credits to the members of the Board of Selectmen, who at all times have given untiringly and willingly of their time and their talents in assisting in the harmonious and economical con- duct of this work; to the Town Solicitor for his invaluable aid in various phases of this program; to the various depart- ment heads, W.P.A. engineers and supervisors; to officials of the water, light and telephone companies for many courtesies extended; and to the many loyal workers in the W.P.A. ranks,'who have sincerely tried to the best of their ability to do the work assigned to them, and to do it well.


During the coming year we promise to give to the voters and the Federal government our best efforts in the ex- penditure of W.P.A. funds, to the end that Milford will continue to be in the future, as it has been in the past, cited as a community in which work done under W.P.A. has been among the most satisfactory in the entire state.


Respectfully submitted, FRED J. COLEMAN, W.P.A. Co-ordinator.
