REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON E.R.A. EXPENDITURES APPOINTED


BY THE ANNUAL TOWN MEETING


During the ten months that your Committee has been in exist- ence numerous changes have taken place in the Federal Relief Pro- gram. Mr. Charles Griffin resigned as Administrator in April and shortly thereafter Mr. Howard M. Dowd was appointed to this posi- tion holding office until December 7, 1935 when this position was abolished by the Federal Government.


During the summer months the new W. P. A. Program was started by the Federal Government, a complete change over taking place December 7, 1935. At that time it was necessary for the Town to assume the entire cost of the Administration of the W. P. A.


Your Committee was authorized to approve the Federal Govern- ment Projects to be carried on in the Town of Weymouth. In choos- ing Projects the Committee had two thoughts in mind; First, to see that jobs were provided for all those who were qualified to go to work under this program; and Second, to choose Projects of bene- ficial nature to the Town. Because of the limited amount of funds available for material, this second objective could not be always carried out to the fullest extent.


At the present time, there are some 575 people on the Federal Government Pay Roll in this Town. This is a considerable increase over the number employed on E. R. A.


Your Committee refers you to the report of the Town Account- ant for a complete summary of the money entrusted to our charge; but we will endeavor in this report to briefly list the Projects undertaken by the Federal Government, the cost of each to the Federal Government as well as the cost to the Town.
