An extremely large amount of work has and is being done by this department on the rural roads. This work is in the nature of brush cutting, removing low and dead limbs and a general clean up. These projects were started last winter with men available from the Unem- ployment Committee and are now being carried on as C.W.A. projects.


The Dutch Elm Disease : Particular attention should be given by the public to the menace of this disease to our elm trees. It is reported by authorities that the very existence of the American elm is threatened by this disease and this should cause serious apprehension. I would advise that all persons who are interested in trees procure literature and all other possible information con- cerning it.


I desire to express my appreciation to the Municipal Light Dept., to the Board of Public Welfare and the Un- employment Committee for the co-operation extended me in my work.


Respectfully submitted,


FRANCIS C. WADE,


Tree Warden.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS


To the Citizens of Ipswich :


The Board of Park Commissioners herewith submit their annual report :


South and North Green: The work on these plots the past year have been largely of the usual routine na- ture. Tulips have again been planted in the beds on both Commons. Some new work was started in the nature of regrading on the Ball diamond on the South Common and it is hoped to finish this as a C.W.A. project.


Giles Firmin Garden : The pond which was partially completed in 1932 was finished last summer with labor furnished by the Unemployment Committee. This now provides a safe place for the younger children to skate as well as a beauty spot in the summer. Here also one of the lawns was regraded and will be seeded this Spring.


Arthur W. Dow Park: With the aid of men from the Welfare Board and the Unemployment Committee this property has been given a thorough cleaning up. All dead and useless trees and shrubs have been cut, new roads laid out and the entire plot been made more acces- sible. It is now possible to drive by auto over 1.4 miles of roads and to enjoy the superb views from the different elevations.


During the present winter, the Park Commissioners have supervised a C.W.A. project on Town Hill. This project consisted of cutting fire lanes, thinning out the trees and shrub-growths and in a general way making this valuable piece of property more usable.


Respectfully submitted,


FRANCIS C. WADE, ERNEST H. PICKARD, S. C. GORDON, Park Commissioners.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :


Gentlemen :


I submit herewith the annual report and inventory of the Highway Department for the year 1933.


Because of a greater snow removal expense this year than estimated, it has been necessary to curtail a good deal on the general maintenance of the highway work.


With the six thousand dollar ($6,000) appropria- tion for oiling streets and the fifteen hundred dollar ($1,500) aid received from the State on the Topsfield and Linebrook Roads, a very serious condition was re- lieved by oiling and tarring some of the main streets. It eliminated a great number of the pot holes in the oiled roads and gave a much better riding surface. I sincerely hope a separate appropriation will be made this year for oiling streets because it is very much needed.


The following table gives the mileage and amount of hours the trucks have worked on the department, also the amount of gasoline and oil used :

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE REPORT


To the Citizens of Ipswich :


It is once more a privilege to bring to you a report of your Board.


Eight years ago all the business of the Board could be transacted in one meeting a month with an expendi- ture of about $7,000.00 for the year.


In 1928 the Ipswich Mills, which was the mainstay of many of the families in the town, closed its business leaving hundreds out of work. That year an appropria- tion larger than any in the history of the town was appro- priated in the amount of $14,649.33. Conditions re. mained practically the same for in 1930 we expended a similar amount, $14,547.29.


In 1929 and 1930 the stock markets began to fluc- tuate and the country felt the effects of this through the summer outlet for work. On farms and estates no one was hiring any more help than was actually necessary, and here in Ipswich this part of the angle took shape.


From the stock market difficulty, came the depres- sion of 1931, and the continuing further depression of 1932. In 1932 the town expended on welfare and unem- ployment, through the welfare channel only, $45,187.88, and in 1933 $65,140.42. All of this meant more work for the Board, it having to devote two nights a week with nearly all night sessions, and a great deal of day work for all the members besides the overtime work on tele- phones. Our expenditure for 1933 would have been much larger except for the activity of C.W.A. work.

We desire to say that in addition to the $480.00 paid by the American Legion Post in the above table, that another payment of $480.00 was made by the Post in January of 1934, too late to be entered in the 1933 ac- count.


We again take pleasure in pointing out that we feel that we are fortunate in having as janitor, George E. Matheson. He has been active in doing many repair jobs which has saved considerable expense, and he has won


107


IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


the thanks and appreciation of the members of the vari- ous organizations who use the building.


In our last report, we called attention to the fact that the building needed painting both inside and outside. This would have cost a considerable sum of money, but the Chairman of our Commission, Brainard C. Wallace, worked hard to secure an allotment from the Federal C.W.A. funds, and the work has been completed at very little expense to the town.


During the year we have had a complete going over of the heating plant, with the result that it is giving bet- ter results with less expense than ever before.

Martha I. Savary Fund


Amount of fund January 1, 1933


Interest received to January 1, 1934


$250.00 5.21


Total fund $255.21


During the year 1933 the only payment made from the Cowles fund was for scholarships as provided by the terms of the Trust.


No payments were made from the Savary Fund.


At the Town Meeting in 1933, every effort was being made to prevent, if possible, a large increase in the tax rate and it was thought advisable to leave the original amount of the Jones Fund intact, but to use the accumu- lated interest which had been earned by the Fund (amounting to $4,794.70), to help pay part of the Town debt which matured in 1933. This was done by vote of the Town. As there are no conditions attached under the terms of the Jones will, the Town has the right to use either principal or interest for any purpose.


We feel that while the interest may be appropriated from time to time, that it is both appropriate and desir- able, that the original gift be held until it can be used for some public purpose which will make it possible for the Town to give some lasting recognition of the generos- ity of the donor.


Respectfully submitted,


GEORGE A. SCHOFIELD, CHARLES M. KELLY, CHARLES E. GOODHUE, Trust Fund Commissioners.

The Engineers took advantage of the opportunity offered by the Massachusetts Dept. of Education, to send


111


IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


two men to the Training School for Firemen that had been established this winter at Haverhill. The object was to teach uniform methods of handling fire fighting appli- ances to these men so that they could impart the infor- mation to the other firemen in the department in future drills.


The Burke Factory fire on June 19 of this year was the worst one we had to contend with, and through the efforts of our own department with the very valuable assistance that we received from out of town departments who were called here to help us, the fire was kept within a very reasonable limit.


At the time this report was prepared, the C. W. A. projects laying a new cement floor in the apparatus room, and painting the interior of the station is nearly com- pleted, and makes a very much needed improvement. We expect some department expense in connection with these projects. We recommend the purchase of more 11/2-in. hose.


With the $1,000.00 appropriated at the last annual Town Meeting, the Engineers purchased 800 ft. of 21/2-in. Goodyear Double Jacket Fire Hose, 200 ft. of 11/2-in. Single Jacket Hose, 2 Nozzles, 1 Siamese Connection, and 34 Helmets for the firemen from the American La France Fire Equipment Co.


From the amount of $920.00 appropriated at a special Town Meeting last July, for the purpose of buy- ing 800 ft. of 21/2-in. hose, and 1 35-ft. extension ladder to replace that which was lost at the Burke Factory fire, the contract was awarded to the Fabric Fire Hose Co. for the sum of $800.00, leaving an unexpended balance of $120.00.


112


IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


We recommend that the Town purchase another pumping engine of a capacity of 750 gallons, as we be- lieve that we are taking too many chances in depending on the one that we have now. It is 14 years old, the make is obsolete, parts are not kept in stock, and would have to be manufactured, resulting in delay in repairing, which would mean that we would have to depend on some other community in case a pump was needed. Our idea is to trade in our No. 2 Combination towards this new pump.


Respectfully submitted, EDWARD H. SMITH, GEORGE W. BROWN, SAMUEL W. ATHERLEY,


Board of Engineers.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH


The Public Statutes require that all diseases danger- ous to the public health shall be reported to the local Board of Health. Below is given a list of such diseases reported to this Board in 1933.


Chicken pox


2


Dog bite


1


German measles


1


Influenza


2


Measles


6


Mumps


1


Scarlet fever


32


Tetanus


1


Pulmonary tuberculosis


1


Typhoid fever


2


Whooping cough


2


Total


51


There were no deaths from any of these diseases. While scarlet fever constituted more than half the whole number of diseases reported, it was not epidemic.


The expense for the care of tuberculosis and conta- gious diseases had been large. The fact that there has been a number of cases in each classification in other cities and towns having an Ipswich settlement accounts for the expense being large, as the Ipswich Health De- partment has been obliged to reimburse the cities and towns where treatment and care were provided.


One of the greatest needs of the department is a welfare nurse who can follow up resident cases of tuber- culosis and such other cases as may require follow-up care. We strongly urge that a sufficient appropriation be provided for that purpose.


114


IPSWICH TOWN REPORT


General sanitary conditions of the town remain about the same as in past years. They will not be materially improved until a system of sewerage has been estab- lished. Two surveys have been made in the past years, but the whole question is still one that the future must solve. Meanwhile the Health Department is carrying on as best it can under the circumstances.

SANITARY AGENT'S REPORT


Ipswich, Mass., January 31, 1934.


Board of Health, Ipswich, Mass.


Gentlemen :


I submit herewith my report for the year ending December 31, 1933.


During the past year I have received a great many complaints in regard to garbage not being properly taken care of. I have investigated these complaints and as a result of said investigation I feel that the amount paid to the garbage collector is not sufficient to enable him to take care of garbage collections in the manner in which it should be done. I recommend to the Board of Health that they consider this when making arrangements for the collection of garbage this year.


There have been a number of complaints also about people who maintain piggeries. In many cases they are a source of annoyance to the people residing in the vicin- ity where they are kept. I recommend to the Board of Health that some definite action be taken to remedy this condition.


I have made periodical inspections of all public places, restaurants and schools, and wherever I have found unsanitary conditions have ordered them to be cleaned up.

Brainard C. Wallace, Chairman of Board of Select- men ; Walter F. Poole, Chairman of Board of Public Wel- fare; Charles Mallard, Manager of Water and Light Dept .; Francis E. Wood, Supt. of Streets; Francis C. Wade, Tree Warden, and additional members appointed were Clifford C. Boylan and Thomas H. Reedy. The Com- mittee organized with Thomas H. Reedy as Chairman and Miss Shulayko as Secretary.


The Committee was voted the sum of $10,500 to give employment to those they considered the most needy and deserving. This Committee took over the unemployment work list of the former Unemployment Committee, such list numbering about forty-one men. Later this number was reduced to around thirty and was carried on for over a period of several months at about this same num- ber. As the summer waned and the work on the farms and summer estates slackened, there were stronger de- mands for work from those let out from employment. Beginning about Nov. 1, the Committee added about six additional applicants each week to relieve the constant increasing demands for work. Fortunately for our Com- mittee and the Town the C.W.A. program was inaugu- rated and up to the time of this writing, the C.W.A. has relieved the unemployment situation. This Unemploy- ment Committee presented to and had approved by the Civil Works Administration the following projects :


Heartbreak Road Water Extension Highland Cemetery East Street Widening Waterproofing Shatswell School Cement Sidewalks Ipswich River Bulkhead Lafayette Street Drainage Legion Cemetery

The Committee also pledged the amount called for under Item No. 3 (the Town's donation share) for the Town Hall project.


On Dec. 14 at a Special Town Meeting, an additional sum of $1,000 was appropriated for the use of this Com- mittee to pledge as the Town's proportion against C.W.A. projects which might be submitted later, as well as to help defray the cost of administration and to pay such bills as might be outstanding. Of the amount, $300.00 was pledged to the fire station project and the greater part of the balance was required to pay C.W.A. adminis- tration expenses.


The Committee has held meetings weekly since its formation and has adopted and completed the following projects as well as furnished men to the various Town departments, as shown in the appended table, ending December 31, 1933.
