Report of Town Physician


Mr. L. A. Merritt, Superintendent of Schools, Williamsburg, Mass.


Dear Sir:


I herewith submit the annual report as school phy- sician of Haydenville and Williamsburg schools.


During May and June there was quite an epidemic of whooping cough which caused badly interrupted sched- ules of school work as well as much needless suffering to children and parents. This could be avoided if parents would have their children immunized early against this disease.


The students were given their physical examinations during September and October with the assistance of Mrs. John O. Jones, the school nurse. The outstanding defects were poor posture, bad teeth and enlarged tonsils. Poor posture is almost universal among our boys and girls but it could be remedied by regular calisthenics which can be instituted in some manner even though there is no gym- nasium. Bad teeth are much more common among the lower grades while as a rule the oral condition of the higher grades is very good; this is a fine demonstration of the value of the health work which has been carried on in this town for the past few years by the physicians, Dr. Kessel and nurses. There is a large number of boys and girls who need tonsillectomies but these have not been done be- cause the hospital accepts only a very restricted number during the summer season.


-


67


In the Williamsburg school there is a real need for enlarging the girls' rest room which apparently could be done at no great expense.


Much has been done to improve the physical and mental condition of the students, and it will be a pleasure to look forward to a more and more well rounded program for the better development of our future citizens, physical- ly, mentally and spiritually. A. good P. T. A. would bring teachers and parents into closer co-operation in under- standing and solving the various problems that come up from time to time along all these lines. Weekly religious instruction would help with the spiritual growth which of course is so closely correlated with physical and mental well-being.


Respectfully submitted,


RUTH V. HEMENWAY, M. D.

November 23, 1943


To the Board of Selectmen Mr. Leon B. Sanderson, Chairman Williamsburg, Massachusetts


Gentlemen :


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Williamsburg for the period from August 7, 1941 to September 23, 1943 made in ac- cordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.


Very truly yours, Theodore N. Waddell, Director of Accounts.


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 Williamsburg for the period from August 7, 1941, the date of the previous examination, to September 23, 1943, and submit the following report thereon :


The financial transactions as recorded on the books of the departments collecting or disbursing money for the town, or committing bills for collection, were examined, checked, and verified.


70


The surety bonds filed with the town by the town clerk, treasurer, tax collector and water collector were ex- amined and found to be in proper form.


The recorded receipts for licenses granted by the board of selectmen, which are issued by the town clerk, were checked with the record of licenses granted, the pay- ments to the treasurer were verified and the cash on hand September 23, 1943, was proved by actual count. The surety bonds filed with the town by individuals to whom liquor licenses were issued were examined and found to be in proper form.


The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked in detail. The receipts, as recorded, were checked with the records of the departments collect- ing money for the town and with the treasurer's record of receipts. The expenditures were compared with the ap- proved treasury warrants, and with the treasurer's record of payments.


The ledger record of departmental accounts receivable was examined and checked with the records in the depart- ments in which the charged originated, and with the treas- urer's record of collections.


The appropriations and transfers voted by the town were listed from the town clerk's record of town meetings, and were checked with the appropriation ledger accounts.


The ledger accounts were analyzed, the many neces- sary adjusting and correcting entries were made, a trial balance was taken off and a balance sheet, which is ap- pended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on September 23, 1943.


Many of the adjustments were necessary because of the accountant's failure to make and post proper and com- plete ledger entries, while other adjustments were made necessary by failure of the assessors to report commit- ments and abatements promptly and accurately.


71


In checking the appropriations it was noted that the town meeting votes annually to use $1,000. of the Onslow G. Spelman School fund income to meet an annual pay- ment of debt created by a high school addition loan. In 1941 and 1942 the income from the fund was less than the amount appropriated and transfers were voted by the finance committee to meet the deficits. Since appropria- tions may be voted from available funds only when such funds actually exist and are on hand at the time the ap- propriation is voted, it is recommended that the town meet- ing vote to raise and appropriate the amount required an- nually for maturing debt and that the income from the Spelman fund received during the year, not in excess of the amount of the debt falling due on account of the high school addition, be used by the assessors as an estimated receipt in the determination of the tax rate.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were analyzed and checked with the records of the depart- ments collecting money for the town and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treas- ury. The payments were compared with the treasury warrants approved by the board of selectmen, and the cash balance September 23, 1943, was proved by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement received from the bank and by actual count of the cash on hand.


The payments on account of debt and interest were proved by comparison with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file.


The securities, including savings bank books, repre- senting the investment of the trust funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed, the in- come being proved and the withdrawals verified by com- parison with the treasurer's record of receipts.


The books and accounts of the tax collector were ex- amined and checked in detail. The commitment lists of


72


all poll, property and motor vehicle excise taxes were added and reconciled with the warrants given by the board of assessors for their collection. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the recorded abatements were checked with the assessors' rcord of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the adjusted accountant's ledger.


The outstanding tax accounts were verified by mail- ing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies re- ceived thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The tax collector's cash balance September 23, 1943, was proved by actual count of the cash on hand.


The records of tax titles held by the town were ex- amined and checked with the tax collector's and treasurer's accounts.


The financial transactions of the town clerks were ex- amined. The recorded receipts for dog and sporting li- censes were checked with the record of licenses issued and the payments to the state and town treasurers were veri- fied. The recorded receipts for junk licenses, issued by the town clerks, were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The town clerk's cash on hand September 23, 1943, was proved by actual count of the cash on hand.


The computation of the tax rates by the board of as- sessors for the period covered by the audit, was examined. It was noted that the amount of appropriations raised, as used by the board of assessors in determining the tax rate for 1942 was $2,400. in excess of the amounts voted and certified by the town clerk, while the amount raised by the board of assessors in determining the 1943 tax rate was $2,000. less than the total appropriations voted.


73


The recorded receipts for the rental of the town hall were checked and the payments to the treasurer were veri- fied.


The accounts of the sealer of weights and measures were examined. The recorded receipts were checked with the record of fees charged, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand October 6, 1943, was counted.


The records of accounts receivable of the health, pub- lic welfare, and school departments were examined. The charges were added and compared with the commitments entered on the accountant's ledger, the recorded collections and abatements were checked, and the outstanding ac- counts were listed and proved with the adjusted ledger.


The recorded receipts of the school department for the sale of material and for miscellaneous charges were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The recorded receipts of the librarians for fines, etc., were checked, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand October 1, 1943, was proved by actual count.


The books and accounts of the water department were examined and checked in detail. The charges for the sale of water and miscellaneous services were added and com- pared with the accountant's record of commitments, the recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were checked, and the out- standing accounts were listed and proved with the account- ant's ledger.


The water collector's cash balance September 23, 1943, was proved by actual count of the cash on hand.


The securities, including savings bank books repre- senting the investment of the Helen E. James School Fund in the custody of the Springfield Safe and Trust Company,


74


were examined and listed. The income was proved and the transfers to the town were verified by comparison with the treasurer's record of receipts.


There are appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, tables showing a reconciliation of the treas- urer's cash, summaries of the tax and departmental ac- counts, as well as tables showing the trust fund transac- tions.


For the cooperation received from all town officials during the progress 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.
