Extension Service is sponsored jointly by Plymouth County, University of Massachusetts, and the United States Department of Agriculture. The money appropriated by the Town each year is sent directly to the County Treasurer for this work.


An interesting and informative Extension Service program is presented each Monday at 12:30 noon on Station WHDH.


There is no 4-H Club work in Scituate. This is regrettable as these Clubs have much to offer the children and youth of the Town.


Your Town Director is pleased to give assistance at any time to persons seeking information in regard to Extension Service work and would urge more citizens to avail themselves of this information.


Respectfully submitted,


RUTH M. MEYERS,


Town Director, County Aid to Agriculture

REPORT OF THE STATE AUDIT


April 4, 1950


To the Board of Selectmen,


Mr. Dennis H. Shea, Chairman,


Scituate, Massachusetts


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Scituate for the year ending December 31, 1949, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.

Mr. Francis X. Lang,


Director of Accounts,


Department of Corporations and Taxation,


State House, Boston


Sir:


As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Scituate for the year ending December 31, 1949, the following report being submitted thereon:


An examination and verification was made of the financial transactions of the Town as shown on the books of the departments receiving or disbursing money or committing bills for collection.


An analysis was made of the accountant's ledger, the receipts being checked with the treasurer's books, and the payments as recorded being compared with the warrants authorizing them and with the treasurer's records of payments. The appropriations were


119


STATE AUDIT REPORT


checked with the town clerk's record of town meeting proceedings and the recorded transfers from the reserve fund were compared with the authorizations of the advisory committee.


A trial balance proving the accounts to be in balance was taken off, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the Town on December 31, 1949.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The receipts, as recorded on the treasurer's books, were analyzed and compared with the records of the several de- partments collecting money for the Town and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the pay- ments were checked with the treasury warrants approved by the selectmen authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds.


The cash book footings were verified, and the cash balance on January 28, 1950 was proved by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit.


The payments made for maturing debt and interest were proved with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled secu- rities on file.


The transactions of the trust and investment funds in the cus- tody of the town treasurer were verified, and the securities and savings bank books representing the investment of these funds were examined and listed.


The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the Town were examined. The amounts added to the tax title account were compared with the collector's records, the redemptions and sales were checked with the treasurer's cash book, the foreclosures were verified, and the tax titles and tax possessions on hand were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.


The books and accounts of the town collector were examined and checked. The taxes, motor vehicle and trailer excise, and assessments outstanding according to the previous examination and all subsequent commitments were audited and compared with the assessors' warrants issued for their collection. The payments to the treasurer were verified, the abatements were checked with the assessors' records of abatements granted, the amounts transferred to the tax title account were proved, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.


120


STATE AUDIT REPORT


The records of departmental and water accounts receivable were examined and checked. The commitments were proved, the collections were compared with the treasurer's recorded receipts, the abatements were checked with the records of the departments authorized to grant them, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.


The outstanding accounts were verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The financial records of the town clerk were examined for dog and sporting licenses issued, as well as for miscellaneous li- censes, the payments to the State being checked with the receipts on file and the reported payments to the town treasurer being com- pared with the treasurer's cash book.


The surety bonds of the town officials required to file them for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.


The records of the sealer of weights and measures, the select- men, and the building inspector as well as of all other departments collecting money for the Town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked, the recorded collections being com- pared with the treasurer's recorded receipts.


In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's and the collector's cash, summaries of the tax, motor vehicle and trailer excise, assessment, tax title, departmental and water accounts, as well as tables showing the condition and transactions of the trust and investment funds.


While engaged in making the audit, cooperation was received from the town officials, for which, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted,


HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts.
