ANNUAL REPORT
Salaries and wages in 1947, are shown as lump sums in the account statements, and are combined and listed in the table, in an effort to save space.
A Blue Cross group was formed in 1947 by the teachers, after an effort to include other employees failed because not enough would join. Deductions are made from salaries and are then paid to the Blue Cross. There is no cost to the town.
Employees earning over $200. were eligible to join the County Retirement Association, which the town accepted in 1946. At present, five of the town officers and employees are members of the association.
The town continues in fair financial condition, largely due to the fact that not a great deal has been taken from surplus for appropriations : in other words, we are pretty solidly on a pay-as-you-go policy. This should be continued as much as possible so as to build up to future major improvements, if possible.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANCIS F. G.ANDREWS,
Treasurer
