WM. L. FOSTER,


Treasurer.


Trustees of Weymouth Fore River Bridge,


Gentlemen :


I have examined the accounts of William L. Foster, Treasurer of the Trustees of Weymouth Fore River Bridge, for the twelve months ending December 31, 1932, and I hereby certify that he has accounted for all receipts that have been reported.


I have also reconciled the bank account and find the balance of $186.28 to be correct.


Very truly yours, Hingham, Mass. January 25, 1933.


J. IRVING BOTTING,


Auditor.

REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT


East Weymouth, Mass. January 25, 1933


To the Board of Selectmen


Gentlemen :


I submit the thirty-first annual report of the Accounting Department, classified as nearly as possible to meet the requirements requested by the State Division of Accounts.


The accounts of the several Town Officials have been examined at intervals during the year and I believe the reports to be correct. Bank balances have been reconciled as of the last day of each month and always found correct.


The several Trust accounts in possession of the Treasurer were examined as of December 31, 1932 and found as reported. It will be noted that the income of the Laban Pratt Hospital Bequest has in- creased to $121,309.08. A new fund of $50.00, the Martha Hannah King Fund, has been received by the Treasurer during 1932. The income from this fund is to be used "for care of Foye Family graves".


Payment was made in 1932 of the loan of $27,000 issued in 1931 for the construction of a water storage tank near the Edgar Station of the Edison Electric Illuminating Company. The only new debt in- curred was $38,000 toward the construction of the new Adams School on Church Street. The net debt of the Town was reduced by the pay- ment of $104,000 to $866,000, which is the lowest it has been since 1928.


The Borrowing Capacity has increased to $563,459.77, and Surplus Revenue to $177,593.40. It is well to record at this time the fact that the Town of Weymouth has never sought special legislation to borrow outside the debt limit, nor has it ever defaulted in the payment of any of its obligations. These facts are of untold value to men of finance when the Town of Weymouth places its securities on the market for disposition. The true condition of Weymouth's finances was evidenced during the year 1932 when the difficulty in securing revenue loans, encountered by so many municipalities of the Commonwealth, was unknown to our Town and all obligations were met promptly. The favorable attitude of financiers toward Weymouth is evidenced by the fact that recently a loan in Anticipation of Revenue of 1933 was discounted at 1.29 per cent.


The 1932 assessment of $43,812.72 levied by the Commonwealth for Weymouth's entrance into the South Metropolitan Sewerage District was not included in the tax levy by the Assessors on recommendation of the Town Counsel. This amount was, however, deducted by the State Treasurer in the annual settlement with the Town which accounts for the overdraft in this tem. This sum, together with a similar item of $40,130.58 deducted in 1931 makes $83,943.30, which must be pro- vided for if it is finally determined that Weymouth has been made a member of the South Metropolitan Sewerage District. Assuming that such a contingency might arise I have zealously guarded the financial transactions of the Town so that provision can be made to care for


314


these assessments without creating any additional burden in the taxes of any one year.


It is extremely unfortunate for the Town of Weymouth for both its officials and taxpayers that publicity is given statements relative to financial matters which are far from correct, when authentic in- formation is available to all who have a real desire for the truth, When information relative to financial affairs of the Town is desired, I wish it could be impressed upon the mind of every citizen of Wey- mouth to call at this office, and assure you all possible information will be gladly furnished by its personnel.


The classification of the many financial transactions for the past year is given in as great detail as would seem necessary in a public document of this nature.


The co-operation of the officials, department heads and citizens has been most helpful in the proper conduct of the Accounting Depart- ment the past year.


I would at this time publicly express my appreciation for the able assistance given me by Miss Ford and Miss Oliva, who have been called upon to render a service under conditions that were far more arduous than would ordinarily be encountered.


Respectfully,


EMERSON R. DIZER,


Town Accountant
