REPORT OF SELECTMEN
Fellow Citizens :
We herewith submit the Ninety-Sixth Annual Report of the officers and committees of the Town of Duxbury.
The routine business of the Town has been carried on without incident during this past year.
We have made a study of the insurance problem with the assistance of the various local agents. The four agents doing business in town appointed Mr. John T. Burns to act for them in formulating a schedule. He has been most helpful. If such a schedule is adopted it will be possible to include all insurance in a single item in the town warrant which will make it clear just what the town is paying for insurance, and also will have the additional advantage of stabilizing the yearly payments.
We have investigated the liability insurance for police- men and firemen and find that the statutes do not permit towns to carry that type of insurance on the police and fire forces, but we feel that some method can be worked out agreeable to all concerned so that these individuals will be adequately protected by some form of insurance.
Congress Street from Union Street to the Pembroke Line has been completed under the Chapter 90 program, and affords a much more direct and less hazardous route to Route 3, and we hope that the road will be used to a much greater extent in the future.
11
We intend to continue the Chapter 90 program in 1949, but the amount of money to be spent will be less than in 1948. The roads selected to be improved are Tremont Street between Cox's Corner and the Marshfield Line, and Church Street between Cox's Corner and Route 14. We wanted to include Autumn Avenue and Vine Street in our Chapter 90 program, but the State engineers would not consider it as these roads are not of sufficient importance to justify the expenditure of state and county funds. We intend, therefore, to place articles in the Warrant asking the town to vote on the matter of improving Autumn Avenue, and Vine and Cross Streets.
We have worked along with the Airport Commission in developing a plan for the small local airport. The State and Federal Governments are very much interested and if the town votes to proceed they will contribute 75% of the costs of construction, 50% of the cost of any land taken, and 66% of the interest if any money has to be borrowed by the town to pay its share of the costs. We recommend that the town give this serious consideration. Further details are contained in the report submitted by the Duxbury Airport Commission.
After some experimentation we believe we have ar- ranged a desirable program for the utilization of our pre- sent facilities at Mattakeesett Court. It may be necessary to increase the Harbor Master's appropriation in order that more time may be devoted to this project.
We have also been in contact with the authorities in Washington and at the State House in regard to the improvement of the basin and channel. We hope that during 1949 funds will be made available by the state and federal governments so that the desired improvements may be completed. The town has available the sum of $12,000.00 which was appropriated several years ago to
12
be used for this purpose in conjunction with the above mentioned governmental contributions.
We have received numerous favorable comments on the improved appearance of the Town Office Building since its recent coat of white paint. This year we plan to paint the Abbot House, since it seems that we will have to continue to use this building for several more years.
In pursuance of the new By-Laws the Moderator ap- pointed the Finance Committee, and these nine men de- serve our sincere thanks for the time and effort they have spent in studying the budgets and requirements of the various departments. Their recommendations to the tax- payers will be based on extensive study of town problems.
During August we requested that a survey be made of the ways and means to eradicate the Green Head Fly nusiance along the shore. The survey was made and esti- mates given as to the cost of this project. The survey showed that this work would also help to control the mosquito nuisance, although two additional applications of D. D. T. would be required in order to obtain the max- imum control of mosquitos, as D. D. T. is devitalized in about thirty days.
The Selectmen signed the bonds issued in connection with the New Elementary School Building appropriation, and note with satisfaction that the mild autumn weather has made it possible for construction to proceed without interruption.
The Building Committee has completed the renovations at the Town Hall and the Recreation Committee will con- tinue a recreational program. The modernization of the building has made it possible for the Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and other groups to use the Hall to advantage.
13
Pursuant to the vote of the town at the Special Town Meeting in July, we have appointed two additional mem- bers to the Board of Public Welfare.
Respectfully submitted,
PHILIP W. DELANO, Chairman CHARLES R. CROCKER WALTER G. PRINCE
Selectmen of Duxbury.

REPORT OF STATE AUDITOR
May 6, 1948
To the Board of Selectmen Mr. Philip W. Delano, Chairman Duxbury, Massachusetts
Gentlemen :
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Duxbury for the year ending December 31, 1947, made in accordance with the provi- sions 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,
FRANCIS X. LANG,
Director of Accounts.
FXL:EV
Mr. Francis X. Lang 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 Duxbury for the year ending
15
December 31, 1947, and submit the following report thereon :
The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collection, were ex- amined and reconciled with the reports and records in the office of the town accountant.
The town accountant's ledger was analyzed, the receipts being checked with the treasurer's books and the pay- ments being compared with the warrants authorizing them and with the treasurer's records of payments. The appropriation accounts were checked with the town clerk's records of town meeting proceedings and the recorded transfers from the reserve fund were verified. A trial balance was taken off, proving the accounts to be in balance, and a balance sheet which is appended to this re- port was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1947. An examination of the ap- pended balance sheet shows that the town is in excellent financial condition.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were ex- amined and checked in detail. The receipts, as recorded, were analyzed and checked with the records of the several departments collecting money for the town and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasu- ry. The payments were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds.
The cash book additions were verified, and the cash balance on February 21, 1948 was proved by actual count of the cash in the office and by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of de- posit.
16
The savings bank books and securities representing the investment of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer and the Plymouth Five Cents Savings Bank were examined and listed, the income being proved and the transfers to the town being verified.
The records of tax titles held by the town were examin- ed and the taxes transferred to the tax title account were compared with the collector's records. The payments to the treasurer were verified and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.
The books and accounts of the tax collector were ex- amined and checked. The taxes and motor vehicle and trailer excise outstanding at the time of the previous examination, as well as all subsequent commitments, were audited and compared with the assessors' warrants issued for their collection. The payments to the treas- urer were verified, the recorded abatements were checked with the assessors' records, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.
The records of departmental accounts receivable were examined and checked. The commitments were proved, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed.
The outstanding tax, motor vehicle and trailer excise, and departmental accounts were verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
The surety bonds of the town officials required to file them for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.
17
The records of licenses and permits issued by the se- lectmen, the town clerk, and by the police and health departments as well as those of all other departments collecting money or committing bills for collection were examined and checked, the reported payments to the treasurer being verified.
Appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing a reconciliation of the treas- urer's and the collector's cash, summaries of the tax, motor vehicle and trailer excise, tax title, and depart- mental accounts, together with tables showing the con- dition and transactions of the trust and invesment funds.
For the cooperation extended by the town officials dur- ing 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
