Recommendation :
I recommend that one additional man be added to the force, also that the Town take some action on the needs of the Police Department. At the present time we have only two cells in our lock-up and only one bed in each cell. We have at times had as many as seven (7) prisoners at one time and we must crowd them into two cells which is against the Law as some of them have to sleep on the floor. We have no place for female prisoners for they have to be kept separate from the male prisoners and we have no place for them. This condition should be remedied and I think it is time that this matter was looked into.
The Town has also arrived at the time when the Town should consider the purchasing of a Patrol Auto or Police Ambulance for the Police Department. We not only need it for our police work but also to carry sick and injured per- sons to Hospitals.
Also the Town should provide some suitable place near our Headquarters for the housing of an Automobile.
J. F. GALLIVAN, Chief.

REPORT OF THE SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
Honorable Board of Selectmen, Town of Braintree, Mass.
Gentlemen: In compliance with your request, I sub- mit the following report of the Department of Sealer of Weights and Measures for the year ending December 31, 1923.
I have tried most earnestly during the year just past to perform the duties of the office in an impartial and fair manner, and therefore be just to all parties concerned. I have found our merchants most courteous and willing to comply with the laws in relation to the sealing of weights and measures and inspections.
I sincerely recommend that the town purchase a set of scales to be known as municipal scales to be located in some convenient place so as the weighing of coal and other com- modities in transit would be in accordance to law, and that all orders of coal by the municipality be subject to reweigh- ing on said scales.

Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES S. HANNAFORD, Sealer of Weights and Measures.

MAINTENANCE
Maintenance consists principally of patching the seal coating and the water bound macadam, gravel and dirt roads. This work is an absolute necessity and if it was not for the maintenance to the roads of the character we have got in the Town, more money would have to be put at the disposal of the department to rebuild more than 90% of them, wherein no particular place shows a great deal of yardage yet the general repair work spread over the entire Town requires a great deal of time and money to keep the roads in anything like condition.
DRAINAGE
The work on drains carrying surface water from the streets comes under the general maintenance work though a considerable amount of work has been done in this re- spect there is required a great deal more to relieve the streets during the heavy flood storms in the spring of the year. If the citizens could only see their way to allow more money to relieve the situation.
BRIDGES
Repairs were made on two bridges at a total cost of $3,604.66, owing to the heavy travel, other bridges in town
137
will need strengthening in order to carry the heavy loads which they are called upon to do these days. I recommend that, in the future, the repairs to bridges be made of steel and concrete, for which the maintenance is practically noth- ing.
GRANTING OF PERMITS
Permits granted to the Old Colony Gas Company 125
Permits granted to the Water Department 205
Permits granted to the N. E. Tel. & Tel. Co 2 Cellar Drains 14
Total of 346
Permits will not be granted to any Company before March 1, 1925, owing to the danger of ditches caving in' when the frost comes out of the ground.
Respectfully submitted,
FRED AUSTERBERRY,
Superintendent of Streets.

DUMPS
The time has come that we have got to find a suitable place in each section to take care of the rubbish.
The dumps that are in use at the present time are on private property and the owners can stop the use of them at any time.
When people are using the dumps if they would go to the back and throw the rubbish over it wouldn't be so bad.
When we go to look over the dumps we find somebody has got tired wheeling the rubbish and they dump along the edge of the street.
If the people would get in touch with some member of the board they would try to enlighten them where to dump instead of going and throwing the rubbish in all parts of the Town and then we receive a complaint that somebody has dumped tin cans on such and such a street.
SEWAGE
Complaints are being received quite often from the overflow of cesspools on other people's property or overflow- ing on the highways.
The Town is growing so fast that cesspools in some parts of the Town are useless.
People that we visit on some of these complaints ask "Why is it that there is no sewage system in the Town?" What is our answer? It is that the Town has not seen fit as yet to install such a system but at the next Town meeting the voters may see that the time has come that a sewage system is needed.
The board feels that the only remedy for these obsolete cesspools and all others is the sewage system at once.
COLLECTION OF GARBAGE
The board feels the garbage has been taken care of this year better than previous years.
141
The voters of the Town don't realize the amount of work and the territory that has to be covered.
The board feels that it will be almost an impossibility to secure a man this year for the collection of garbage for the present appropriation.
PIGGERIES
The board has received numerous complaints from the So. Section in regard to odors from pigs. We wish at this time to inform the people of the Town that the keeping of swine is prohibited unless duly authorized and licensed by the Board of Health under such conditions as it may deem proper to establish.

We were obliged to construct a new intake basin on the water front for the new condensing unit, and in doing so we excavated five feet lower then the bottom of the old basin, or about three feet below the channel bottom, there- by obviating any future possibility of water shortage at low tide.
This work cost approximately $2,500.00. A ten-ton traveling crane has been placed in the turbine room to facilitate the quick removal and repair of any heavy ma- chinery parts at any point in the room or basement.
