Sidewalks :


Sidewalks have been constructed on Purchase Street,


188


East and Hayward Streets, So. Main Street, and construc- tion has been started on Lawrence Street.


New Equipment :


In 1949 the Highway Department purchased a new Barber-Green Snow Loader and a new Cletrac Tractor equipped with Dozer, loader and winged V snow plow.


At this time I should like to thank the employees of this department, the Honorable Board of Selectmen, for- mer Highway Surveyor J. Frank Cahill, the various de- partments in the town, and the townspeople for their co- operation and good-will during the past year.


Respectfully submitted, EDWARD C. CARROLL, Highway Surveyor.

WELFARE PHYSICIAN'S REPORT


The Board of Welfare, Mr. Dugan, Mr. Ahearn, and their staff, merit both gratitude and congratulations for their enthusiasm and cooperation during 1949.


The Town Infirmary was as usual a credit to the town due to the unceasing efforts of Mr. and Mrs. Ebbeling, our very capable custodians.


As Town Physician, I made 118 house calls and had 79 office visits. These were in addition to routine weekly visits to the Infirmary and emergency calls to the In- firmary.


Respectfully submitted, FRANK D. BERRY, M.D.


The Welfare Department employs the following : Agent, Social Worker, Senior Clerk, Junior Clerk at the office, a Superintendent, Matron, and two helpers at the Infirmary, and a Welfare Physician.


Respectfully submitted, HENRY J. PILLARELLA, Chairman FRANCIS L. KIRBY WESLEY W. STEVENS

Report of the Department of Veterans' Services


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Voters of Milford :


I herewith submit my annual report for the year 1949 and wish to state that the number of applicants for


213


and recipients of veterans' benefits has increased greatly over that of the previous year and at this writing, con- tinues to increase, thus necessitating greater expend- itures. Two of the major causes for the increase have been unemployment and illness. Also increasing, is the number of veterans and veterans' dependents seeking in- formation, advice and assistance for benefits allowed vet- erans and their dependents by the Veterans Administra- tion and other Governmental and State Departments and Agencies. The services rendered by this department are available to all veterans or veterans' dependents of all wars and as Director of this Department, I have received great pleasure in the task of aiding those who have re- quested assistance on their particular problem from this office.


I wish to take this opportunity to thank the Board of Selectmen for their cooperation and confidence in me to perform the duties necessary for the proper functioning of this Office and to all agencies and persons who have kindly assisted me this past year.
