At the 1940 Annual Town Meeting it was voted under Article 1, item 34, that a committee of nine be appointed by the Moderator from the various Veteran and Heredity organizations, in accordance with the provisions of General Laws (Tercentenary Edition), Chapter 40, Section 5, Clause 12, as amended.
The members of the Committee appointed were as follows:
Henry B. Vogel, Honorary Chairman, Commander Reynolds Post 58, Grand Army of the Republic.
Everett T. Gardner, Chairman, Commander Weymouth Post 79, American Legion.
Arthur L. Tilton, Commander, Wessagusset Post No. 1399, Veterans of Foreign Wars.

Ernest A. Smith, Commander General, James L. Bates Camp 36, Sons of Union Veterans.
Mrs. Hazel Theriault, President, Dorothea Dix Tent 32, Daughters of Union Veterans.
At the first meeting held at the Town Hall on April 12th, 1940, Ernest A. Smith, Commander of Sons of Union Veterans, was elected as secretary of the Committee. During the month of April and May several meetings were held at which arrangements were perfected for caring for the graves of veterans of all wars, securing of bide, and placing of orders for Flags, Flowers, Band, and all other items necessary to the proper observance of the Memorial Season.
Details from the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Sons of Union Veterans, Disabled Veterans, and the American Legion, attended to the placing of flags, potted plants and wreaths on the graves of our departed veterans. The public schools of the town were visited pre- vious to Memorial Day, by veterans and members of heredity organi- zations.
On Memorial Day morning the Parade was formed at Hurley Square, North Weymouth, and all cemeteries were visited in the usual order. The parade was reviewed by Commander Henry Vogel at his home on Cedar Street, East Weymouth.
The thanks of the committee are extended to all organizations who helped to make the observance of Memorial Day a success.
We regret to announce the death of a member of our committee since our last meeting. Senior Vice Commander Louis Cippulo of the Ralph Talbot Chapter 36, Disabled Veterans, will be greatly missed by all his comrades.
Respectfully submitted,
ERNEST A. SMITH, Secretary of Weymouth Memorial Day Committee.

REPORT OF CUSTODIAN OF VETERANS' GRAVES
January 22, 1941
The Honorable Board of Selectmen: Gentlemen :
A report of the Custodian of Veterans' Graves for 1940.
The appropriation has been expended in the same manner as in previous years with one exception. It did not seem to be a justifiable expenditure of public money to take care of veteran lots in the Ashwood cemetery when the almost non-existent association, with money on hand, allows the hurricane damage to lay as it fell. A deduction of seven graves in the Ashwood cemetery, plus an increase of two makes a total of 373 graves in 320 different lots cared for at Town expense. The Veteran of Foreign Wars Post care for 9 in the older cemeteries, 24 are under the immediate supervision of the custodian, 292 are cared for by agreement with the superintendents of the larger cemeteries.
The courtesy, help and co-operation received from the various ceme- tery officials is noted again with appreciation.
Yours respectfully, KARL O'NEIL, Custodian of Veterans' Graves.
REPORT OF BURIAL AGENT
January 22, 1941
The Honorable Board of Selectmen: Gentlemen :
The annual report of the Burial Agent.
Three burials were made in 1940 under the statute that provides for the burial of indigent soldiers and sailors. One case has been completed and payment made, two are pending for further investigation by the office of the Commissioner of State Aid and Pensions.
Your respectfully, KARL O'NEIL, Burial Agent.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
I respectfully submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1940.
For the third consecutive year, this department has been able to report a decrease in the amount of money expended for relief although the saving in 1940 was slight due to the continued layoffs on WPA.
Through the cooperation of all who have a part in the administra- tion of this relief work, we have been able to continue this decrease in expenditures and I wish, at this time, to express my deepest grati- tude to your Board, and my fellow workers, for the spirit that has been shown.
Respectfully submitted, THOMAS P. DELAHUNT, Agent, Board of Public Welfare.

REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT
East Weymouth, Mass. January 25, 1941.
To the Board of Selectmen:
Gentlemen :
Herewith is submitted the thirty-ninth annual report of the Ac- counting Department. The classification of accounts sets forth the most important factors to show the purposes for which expenditures were made by the several departments.
As suggested in previous reports, any one should feel free to call at the office when more detailed information is desired.
Accounts of town officers have been examined frequently, cash bal- ances verified monthly, and the cash and securities of the Town found as reported by the several officials.
The Surplus Revenue as of December 31, 1940, is $114,283.37, which represents a loss of $20,372.50 compared to that of the year before. The use of $45,000, by vote of the Town in March, materially accounted for a reduction in the tax rate for 1940. It is extremely doubtful if any surplus revenue will be available for use in 1941. Should this be true, and other items remain at last year's level, an increase in the rate for 1941 would seem probable.
The Net Debt of $368,000 shows a reduction from that of last year. Final payment was made of the loan issued in 1930 for the construction of the Ward Two Fire Station. It is interesting to note that the present net debt of the Town is less than it has been since the year 1922.
Payment was also made in 1940 of $18,243.41, the 10th and final pay- ment to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, for the assessment levied against Weymouth for admission to the South Metropolitan Sewerage System.
I now wish to express my appreciation to those officials and co- workers who have been so helpful in making possible the accomplish- ments of this office.
Respectfully yours,
EMERSON R. DIZER,
Town Accountant.
