Selectmen's Report
Your Selectmen herewith submit the following report:
The Board organized on February 4th, and elected L. B. San- derson, Chairman, and Oakley Ames, Clerk. Meetings have been held every Monday night. The following officials were re-appointed : L. C. Wales as Superintendent of Bridges and Fences, Mr. Albert Lawton, Inspector of Barns, Animals and Meats, F. A. Shumway, Inspector of Dairies, C. K. Hathaway, Fire Chief and Forest Warden, George H. Bisbee as Sealer of Weights and Measures, B. L. Dobbs as Moth Superintendent, L. H. Cranson as Fish and Game Warren, and L. H. Cranson as Highway Superintendent.
We regretted very much the resignation of our very efficient highway superintendent, Mr. H .H. Nichols, who has served the Town long and well in that capacity.
Our Welfare situation was greatly relieved the past year by the aid of WPA projects, from which we feel we have benefited greatly. The Water Diversion project in Haydenville we feel is going to be of lasting benefit, as we think it will relieve the flood condition around our Haydenville School and Church. Our Farm to Market projects have certainly been a big factor in improving several of our secondary roads, and without a very heavy expense to the town.
Our Chapter 90 work was applied on Mountain Street this year, and we recommend that the work be continued on that same road next year.
A new sidewalk was laid on lower Main Street in Haydenville, which was greatly appreciated as well as much needed.
During the year we have been able to finance our obligations without having to obtain any short term loans, which is rather un- usual.
At this time we wish to extend to the Finance Committee our appreciation of the fine cooperation we have received from them during the past year.
LEON B. SANDERSON, OAKLEY AMES, SILAS SNOW,
Selectmen.
