Report of Workmen's Compensation Agent
December 31, 1939.
Honorable Board of Selectmen:
I herewith submit my report as Workmen's Compensation Agent for the year ending December 31, 1939.
On December 18, 1939, your Board appointed a Workmen's Compensation Agent in accord- ance with instructions received from the State Department of In- dustrial Accidents in their letter of December 15, 1939, which quoted the requirements under Section 75, Chapter 152, G. L. (as amended).
A meeting called by the State Department of Industrial Accidents was held in the Hearing Room, Court House, 1841 Building, Sa- lem, Mass., on Wednesday, Decem- ber 20, 1939, at 2 P. M., and a number of officials representing many of the towns in Essex Coun- ty were present.
The purpose of this meeting was to discuss the present status of the law as it relates to the furnishing of benefits due municipal em- ployees who receive injuries aris- ing out of and in the course of em- ployment or death resulting from such injury and to instruct the agents as to the responsibility for the proper administration of the provisions of the Workmen's Com- pensation Act.
It was brought out at this meeting that some of the towns represented carried no workmen's compensation insurance, that the
departments of some towns carried: their own insurance and paid for same out of their departmental ap- propriation and that other towns- protected all employees (except firemen and policemen) by this- form of insurance. £ brought out that many of the towns had never accepted Chapter It was also. 403 of the Acts of 1936.
At our annual town meeting of March 1938, it was voted to ac- cept Chapter 403 of the Acts of 1936, an act which provided for the- inclusion of additional public em- ployees (except firemen and po- licemen) within the provision of" the Workmen's Compensation Law. The acceptance of this amended legislation was necessary in order to properly include employees. other than laborers, workmen and. mechanics who were the only em -- ployees legally covered by prior ac- ceptances. At the present time,- all employees of the town are pro- tected by workmen's compensa- tion insurance excepting firemen,. policemen and school teachers and. inasmuch as up to the present time it has been impossible for me to ascertain why our school teachers- have not been accorded the same- protection as other employees, I intend to make a further thorough study of this situation and shall undoubtedly make some recommen -· dation to you at a future date.
Respectfully submitted, RALPH QUIRK, Workmen's Compensation Agent .-

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
1939]
Report of the Superintendent of Schools
To the Honorable School
Committee and Citizens of Saugus:
It is both the duty and the priv- ilege of the Superintendent of Schools to submit his seventh an- nual report for the School Depart- ment, the same being the forty- seventh annual report.
THE 1939 BUDGET
At the annual March Town Meeting of 1939 the School Depart- ment was voted a general budget of $227,650 and a repair budget of $5000.
For the seventh consecutive year the School Committee is pleased to announce that the Department will finish the year within its general appropriation. This year the Committee has also been able to complete the year within its re- pair appropriation. This is a record of which the School Com- mittee, and the Superintendent of Schools, is justly proud.
By a temporary closing of the Mansfield School in East Saugus in June 1939 the department was able to effect a saving from Sep- tember 1939 to January 1940 of
$2,085.84. The Committee, how- ever, was obliged to engage the services of an extra teacher at the Armitage School which was not anticipated and therefore not pro- vided for in the 1939 budget. From September 1939 to January 1, 1940 the cost of this teacher was $264. Deducting this $264 from the $2,085.84 saved by the closing of the Mansfield School shows a bal- ance of $1,821.84. This amount will be turned back into the town treasury on December 31, 1939. Taking this refund into considera- tion the School Department actu- ally operated its school system dur- ing the year 1939 on a general budget of $225,828.16.
