REPORT OF TOWN ACCOUNTANT
1941]
Report of Town Accountant
December 31, 1941
To the Honorable Board of Select- men
Saugus, Mass.
Gentlemen :
I herewith submit my fourth annual report as Town Accountant for the year 1941. The report is made in accordance with the re- quirements of the State System of Accounting and is set forth in the following schedules.
The unpaid bills for 1941 re- ported to this office are as follows: Street Lighting 324.01
Water Purchase 2124.06
Public Welfare 200.00
$2648.07
In the first two instances, the appropriations made were insuf- ficent and in the case of the Pub- lic Welfare bills, you will note that this department had an un- expended balance of $358.20 on December 31st, or more than enough to take care of these out- standing obligations.
On November 3rd, the new en- cumbrance system was started and although some difficulties have been experienced the system, gen- erally speaking, worked out as well as could be expected. With
some anticipated minor changes, this system should be working very well by the middle of 1942. Up to the present time, the extra work of this system has been done by the Accounting Department with no increase in personnel. The present personnel have had to work longer hours, Sundays and holi- days to accomplish this and it may be necessary to employ additional help in the future.
Balance sheets and detailed fin- ancial reports have also been fur- nished to your Board and to vari- ous financial institutions, local individuals and organizations and the customary mid-year report of appropriations, expenditures and available balances was given to the local press. During the past year there has been a tremendous increase in requests from the Federal and State governments for vital information pertaining to the National Defense program.
