IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Selectmen's Report
To the Citizens of Ipswich :
During the past year the Board of Selectmen has at all times made an effort to conduct the affairs of the Town in a manner that would be for the best interest of the Town at large. We have made an effort to keep in close contact with all departments coming directly under our control and are quite satisfied with the manner in which these depart- ments have been operated. We have also made an effort to cooperate with the heads of such departments that do not come directly under our control in the interest of public service. The Chairman or some member of the Board has represented the Town at all hearings and meetings pertain- ing to public interest. At various times individual members of the board have held conferences with Federal, State and County officials and representatives to discuss matters in which they all might have a common interest. All depart- ments coming directly under our control have submitted their respective reports and will be found in this the Annual Town Report.
For the first time in a number of years we have been able to do Chapter 90 Construction work. We have com- pleted the work covered under a contract for 1946, which includes the reconstruction of that portion of Topsfield Road from Safford Street to the entrance of the Hayward Estate. We are quite pleased with the manner in which this work was done and can only highly commend the Super- intendent of Highways for the fine piece of construction work done under his supervision. We started construction under another contract of 1947 calling for the construction of that portion of Topsfield Road from the entrance to the
114
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Hayward Estate to the boundary line of the Snow Estate on Topsfield Road. We were able to do subgrading, install drainage, relocate walls, and gravel before winter conditions made it impossible to continue work. We expect to start work again on this project just as soon as weather conditions permit and when completed will make a decided improve- ment on this particular part of Topsfield Road. It is ex- pected that we will receive additional State and County Funds in 1948 to continue work on Topsfield Road and expect that by the end of 1949 we will see the completion of Chapter 90 Construction on this road.
During the past year we received a grant from the Federal Government for a survey and plans for improve- ments on South Main Street and Choate Bridge, Topsfield Road, Market and Hammatt Streets, Depot Square and Mar- ket Street. The survey and plans have progressed to the point where they will be ready to submit to the Federal Government by the first of March. These plans will be filed with the proper Town Officials for future use and reference.
We received delivery of the new Walters Snow-Fighter this year and this piece of equipment has been a most wel- come addition to our snow-removal equipment in the High- way Department. The wisdom of the Town Officials in recommending the purchase of this piece of equipment has most certainly been proven and with the Town having two Walters Snow Fighters we feel that they have the best snow removal equipment that could be secured.
Two years ago the Town voted to accept North Ridge Road as a public way. The Board of Selectmen requested an appropriation to start work on this highway, due to con- ditions beyond the control of the Board, we have not been able to start construction. We do feel that this year an additional appropriation should be made so that this work
115
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
can be completed. A great many new houses have been erected on the property bordering this highway and the final construction of this highway might well be an induce- ment for a great deal of future development and result in a decided increase valuation in real estate property.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Report of Town Counsel
January 27, 1948
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen
Gentlemen :
I wish to submit the report of your Town Counsel for the year 1947.
The only pending matter from 1946 was the petition before the Congress of the United States to abolish the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge. This matter has been before Congress for the last two years. A previous report contained a history of this matter.
The proponents of the Bill to abolish the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, following the Presidential veto of the Bill, filed a new Bill which was felt would meet the objections of the President to abandonment of the Refuge. The former Bill had been heard by the committee on agri- culture, but the new Bill was referred to the committee on Marine Fisheries; under the new rule of consolidating con- gressional committees. The present Bill met with more organized opposition than the former Bill, notably from the Audubon Society.
At the hearing on the former Bill the proponents of the Bill were Ipswich, Rowley, Newbury, West Newbury, Georgetown and Groveland. After the Presidential veto the Wildlife Division indicated it would be willing to abandon so much of the Refuge as was within the Towns of West Newbury, Georgetown and Groveland. These Towns, based
117
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
upon this assurance, requested a Bill be filed to prohibit the taking of any lands in these towns for a Refuge. The Audubon Society filed a bill to establish a Refuge in the Towns of Ipswich, Rowley and Newbury. The Towns of Ipswich, Rowley and Newbury filed a Bill to abolish the Refuge.
The Committee reported a compromise Bill which would establish the Refugee in the Towns but in a restricted area. Congressman Bates who has been very active in this matter and particularly concerned to protect the clamming industry has asked Congress to confine the Refuge to Plum Island and then to be above high water mark. Congressman Bates request is now pending and should be acted upon by Con- gress within a few weeks.
Your Town Counsel has been called upon by various town departments for advise and rulings as to the conduct of affairs within the juridiction of the various departments. These problems generally pertain to administrative duties.
There have been two minor cases instituted against the Town but these have been terminated.
The case which had the most public interest during the past year is the case of McRobbie vs. Registrars of Voters. In view of the fact that a Justice of the Superior Court de- termined the legal problems were so involved that he re- ported the case to the Supreme Judicial Court for determina- tion without deciding any of the legal questions, I feel I should not report on that case at this time. The case will be argued at the February sitting of the Supreme Judicial Court.
May I take this occasion to express my appreciation for the considerate manner in which town officials conduct the
118
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
business within their departments. In every instance that I have been asked for an opinion the head of the department has maintained a sincere desire to perform the functions of his office according to statute.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM F. HAYES,
Town Counsel.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Report of Inspector of Wires
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen
Gentlemen :
I herewith submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1947.
I have made two hundred and five requested inspections. One hundred and twenty-five of these were for new services and replacing of old services. The other eighty inspections were for additional wiring. I have made twenty-two inspec- tions of public and private buildings. I have inspected all our schools and have found the wiring to be in good con- dition.
I find most of our apartment buildings with cords and wiring extensions that violate the rules of personal safety. I intend to rectify the violations of all wiring as I come upon same. I have found cases of violations of wiring by some licensed electricians that have installed wiring in this town. They have been warned that the citizens of this town shall not have their safety gambled with by their poor workman- ship.
At least seventy percent of the buildings in this town have been wired at least twenty years ago. The wiring in most cases is inadequate for all the appliances used today. I would like to make an appeal to the people of Ipswich through the Board of Selectmen.
120
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
To the Citizens of Ipswich :
Please do not install your own wiring. Call a licensed electrician to do your wiring. For you may put the safety of your family and property out on a limb.
More persons have died from electric shocks and electric fires in the past year than any other year.
If in doubt call your wire inspector, he will be glad to help you.
I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen, the electricians and the citizens of Ipswich for their co-operation for the year 1947.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANK SLYSZ,
Inspector of Wires.

Report of the Town Treasurer
To the citizens of the Town of Ipswich :
The report of the Town Treasurer for the year 1947 is herewith submitted.
Cash Balance, January 1, 1947 $301,300.31 751,693.35

Cash Balance, December 31, 1947
$ 282,221.21
Detailed reports of all financial transactions of the town for the year may be found in the tables in the report submitted by the Town Accountant. In view of the fact that another year has passed during which it was not neces- sary to borrow any money in anticipation of revenue, no effort was made to determine the Town's borrowing capacity for borrowing on temporary notes.
That the cash balance as shown above will not be mis- leading, it includes the depreciation fund, construction fund, and cash balances of the Electric Light and Water Depart- ments amounting to $179,705.05.
This year your Property tax bills were late in coming out, due mainly to the length of the commitments and the descriptions of property involved.
