The Trustees also recommend that an addition be built to the Library in the rear. The cost of this work would be in the vicinity of $30,000. There are so many other projects that demand attention that we feel no provision should be made for this improvement at this time, although we believe that the Library is inadequate for the growing needs of the town.
The estimated cost of finishing the attic is $7,500. These figures were submitted by Mr. Thomas B. Epps, a resident of Swampscott, who is associated with the firm of architects who planned and super- vised the erection of the building. We believe that the expenditure of this money will correct many of the present objectionable conditions at the Library. We recommend, therefore, the appropriation of $7,500 from the tax levy to be expended under the direction of the Trustees of the Public Library in accordance with plans made by Thomas B. Epps, architect, and in pursuance of the provisions of the by-laws re- lating to the making and awarding of contracts.
Article 82. We understand that this subject is still being discussed and feel, therefore, that no action should be taken by the town at this time. We recommend, therefore, that action under this article be in- definitely postponed.
Article 83. We have conferred with the Board of Selectmen, con- cerning this article. We recommend that a committee consisting of Dr. Howard K. Glidden, the proponent of the Article, and one repre- sentative from each precinct, be appointed by the moderator for the purpose of considering the advisability of recommending a change in our form of government that would involve a provision for a town manager and that this committee submit its report to the annual meet- ing for 1931.
Article 86. It appears that Leon E. Abbott Park has never been formally dedicated. It seems fitting that this should be done. We, therefore, recommend that the Board of Selectmen, in conjunction with a committee of four to be selected by Leon E. Abbott Post 57 of the American Legion, arrange appropriate exercises for this purpose, to be held at a time when the public may conveniently attend, and that the sum of $325 be appropriated therefor from the Excess and De- ficiency Fund.
Article 87. The expense of erecting fences along the sidewalk lines of all playgrounds in the town would be large, and the cost of main- tenance thereafter would be substantial. We can see no good to be accomplished by the erection of such fences. We recommend, there- fore, that action under this article be indefinitely postponed.
Article 90. An addition has been built to the Essex County Tuber- culosis Hospital under authorization of an act of the Legislature, and

the sum of $3,615.64 has been duly apportioned to Swampscott as its share of the cost. We, therefore, recommend that the sum of $3,615.64 be appropriated from the Excess and Deficiency Fund.
Article 91. We recommend that $1,000 be appropriated from the Excess and Deficiency Fund for the observance of the Fourth of July, to be expended under the direction of three voters to be appointed by the moderator.
Article 92. Arthur C. Lewis contends that the town owes him some money by reason of his over-payment of a tax assessed on cer- tain property. The amount involved is $27.18. Althought the sum is small, much investigation would be necessary to determine whether the town is legally liable for the payment of this money. It would take a great deal of time to settle a matter of this nature and we therefore recommend that it be referred to the town counsel for in- vestigation, and if he determines that Mr. Lewis is legally entitled to be paid said sum of $27.18 then upon his report in writing to the Board of Selectmen we recommend that said Board be authorized to pay said amount upon the execution and delivery of a proper release by Mr. Lewis; said sum to be paid from the Selectmen's Contingent Fund.
