The Selectmen and the Pot ice Department have firmly es- tablished a "no-fix policy". We believe that traffic en- forcement is effective and better understood when all people are treated identically. We stand squarely behind the Chief and the Department in giv- ing no favors - no matter who is involved.
Our experiment with a police dog has not yet proven itself and results with the dog will be watched carefully in 1965. We appreciate donation of the dog by the Grange and Mr. Harold Ogilvie's paying for his feeding.
CIVIL DEFENSE
The same level of activity and consequent ex- pense is expected to be maintained in 1965 as in 1964. We are attempting to maintain our contacts with the State Office and do enough to keep in their good graces. During 1964, Deputy Chief of Police

MacInnis went to a school to learn to teach others how to control activities in an air-raid shelter when in use for that purpose. Buildings in the Town have been inspected for their ade- quacy as shelters and six spots were considered to be adequate.
WAGE BOARD
Three years ago the Finance Committee and this Board constituted a Wage Board. Experience indicated that an integrated Wage Board of three should be most effective. The Finance Committee and the School Committee agreed, and late in 1964 a Board was constituted consisting of John Tew from the Finance Committee, Perry Culver from the School Committee, and Russell Haden from the Se- lectmen. This Wage Board has developed effective- ly .
This Board recognized early that there was a need for a consistent approach to wages in the Town instead of the somewhat expedient approach that had been used in times past. Lincoln, as a small town, cannot set a wage pattern and must follow whatever pattern exists. We also need to recognize that in today's motorized age it is relatively easy for our employees to secure posi- tions in other towns. The 701 Land-Use Survey has revealed that 82 per cent of Town employees live in other Towns. Consequently, the Board formulated the policy that wage increases in Lin- coln would be set by the average of the increases in our four most comparable neighboring towns, Weston, Wayland, Sudbury and Concord. The in- creases shown in the 1965 budget were developed using this approach.
We also expect, during 1965, to set a proper salary range for each job in the Town, again based on comparing our jobs with those in the four towns mentioned above. Detailed job des- criptions are being prepared of their jobs and ours and from these we will evaluate our jobs in order to be sure that there are no inequities in our salary schedules.

GENERAL GOVERNMENT
The Selectmen would like to acknowledge the great number of hours that many of its em- ployees put into their jobs. It would be im- possible to mention all of those who are giving extra effort to the Town in this way but Warren Flint, Elizabeth Causer, Ann Paddock, Elizabeth Snelling and William Davis are outstanding ex- amples. We appreciate the dedication of our staff.
As the Town grows, an increasing load is placed upon our Town Clerk and Tax Collector, both positions being filled by William H. Davis. During the year, arrangements were worked out so that our Assistant Treasurer, Mrs. Paddock, could provide a significant number of hours in working with Mr. Davis.
BUILDING CODE BY-LAW
The Town's building code was first promul- gated in 1927 and last brought up to date in 1959. A complete overhaul was effected in 1964 by a Committee consisting of William Halsey, Chairman, with Harold Rosenwald, Douglas M. Burckett, and Stanley D. Porter. Much effort was put into preparing a code that is much more complete than the 1959 version. The reasons for doing this were both to increase the emphasis on performance of materials rather than on arbitrary requirements and also to prepare ahead for possible construct- ion of larger buildings permitted by the revised zoning of the Town, such as in the general resi-
dence area. The Committee held several inform- al hearings to which contractors and architects were invited and every effort was made to make sure that all viewpoints were recognized.
PUBLIC BUILDINGS
A contract for the exterior repair of the Town Hall was completed in 1964. The firm of A. Belanger and Sons did an excellent job for the Town.

GENERAL GOVERNMENT
Landscaping of the new Brooks School was done by the Parks Department at minimum cost to the Town. We see the opportunity for still more activity in the future as the Town grows and as we are able to raise the standards of ap- pearance.
After careful study of a recommendation of the Recreation Committee, the Selectmen allocated some money from the Pierce Fund for the con- struction of a skating pond near the Pierce House. This pond appears to be useful.
With the death of Mrs. Pierce in June 1964, the decision is now thrust upon the Town of what to do with the Pierce House. The Fence Viewer was very cooperative in publicizing the desire of the Selectmen to receive the thoughts of the townspeople on potential uses for the house. In addition, there was a large attendance at the tea, on January 10, 1965, at which people showed a great deal of interest in exploring the building thoroughly.
From all the suggestions which have been turned in to date, there appear to be three major proposals. The first is that in some way the building should be used for the elder citizens in the Town either as a place to live or as a com- munity center for them alone. A number of the suggestion sheets turned in at the tea, after people had had a chance to inspect the building itself, noted that the writers had changed their opinions and now withdrew this suggestion. The reason for this is that the building actually has few bedrooms for its size, thus holding only a small number of people, and because it would cost a disproportionate amount of money to modify the building to provide the bedrooms and fire escapes that would be necessary for this use. For these reasons, we doubt if this proposal is one that can be implemented.
The second possibility concerns the use of the building for various activities for chil- dren, either as a teen-age center, or for exist- ing activities such as Boy Scouts, etc. On the
10
GENERAL GOVERNMENT
other hand, just as many people have written to say that such a use for the Pierce House should not be considered because of potential damage to the interior and because the building is not laid out well for such a purpose. Therefore, we feel that this also is probably not a practical pro- posal.
The third major group of suggestions noted the desirability of preserving the building and the grounds. Many felt that adult use is con- sistent with preservation, that there is no real need for the building, but that it is possible to put it to worthwhile uses. For example, were two bathrooms installed, it would probably be practicable to give rooms to Town organizations, such as the Historical Society, the League of Women Voters, the Garden Club, or to use the building for Town offices, or for general Town gatherings. Because there was a great variety of suggestions in this group, careful considera- tion will be given to all of significance.
Consonant with such a decision would be making available to a caretaker and his family three bedrooms on the second floor, including the wing.
LANDSCAPE-BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE
This Board appoints the Landscape-Beautifi- cation Committee and looks to it for suggestions and cooperation in improving the appearance of the Town and developing beauty spots.
We feel that the work of this Committee can reasonably be enlarged, possibly to consider the designation of a Beautification Day. The Selectmen would like to see worthwhile project- ions for action in various locations which should contribute to the overall appearance of the Town.
HIGHWAYS
For the last few years, the capital ex- penditure program for highways has largely com-
11
GENERAL GOVERNMENT
pleted major construction on Town Highways. We believe that adequate maintenance will continue to be the major consideration during the coming years. It seems possible that full and adequate maintenance may defer major capital improvements for some time.
Route 126, from the Wayland line to Route 117, is an important peripheral highway and must be improved to safe highway standards. Chapter 90 Funds apply to such a project. We are in- deed mindful that no improvement in safety can take place without some lessening of the total beauty of our trees. We shall make every ef- fort to carry out what must be done in a way which will not overly injure the present beauti- ful avenue of trees.
OBITER DICTA
In addition to recommendations for action at the Town Meeting already referred to, we join with the Planning Board in urging that the Town become part of the Metropolitan Area Planning Council. We also are suggesting that the Town By-laws be amended to provide for a Celebrations Committee and that a tabling motion require a two-thirds majority for passage.
We have particularly enjoyed the worth- while and harmonious relationships that give common purpose to the Air Force and the Town. The consideration given by the Air Force to Town needs, and its willingness to assist when- ever requested are warmly appreciated.
We have met with a study committee of the Lincoln Historical Society to consider the wis- dom of establishing a historic district within the Town. Further joint study and communica- tion with those in any area which might be in- volved will develop during the coming year.
We express deep appreciation to the League of Women Voters which has contributed greatly to our joint efforts to develop increasing communi-
12
GENERAL GOVERNMENT
cation on Town matters with all the citizens. In addition to their worthwhile stated meetings, they have joined us in sponsoring and presenting many meetings throughout the Town at which a full and informal discussion of Articles to be presented at Town Meetings could take place. Such meetings provide true two-way communication which we hope is of benefit to those who attend. We know it is of benefit to the members of the Town Boards that participate in such meetings.
Six similar meetings are planned for the first two weeks in March of this year, prior to the Annual Meeting. At these meetings, this Board will be joined by members of the Board of Health, the Board of Assessors, and the Water Board.
Retiring from active service on elective Town Boards are Elmer H. Ziegler, who has com- pleted nine years of service on the Board of Assessors; C. DeWitt Smith, who for many years has given added strength to the School Committee; and John Carley, who is retiring as Chairman of the Trustees of Lincoln Library.
We also recognize an anniversary of con- tinued service. Frederick B. Taylor was first appointed and then elected Town Treasurer 20 years ago. His able approach to his responsi- bilities has not only developed an efficient ad- ministration but has benefited the Town finan- cially on many occasions.
