TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
The libraries are administered by the Head Librarian, who is responsible to the Scituate Library Committee representing the Allen Memorial Library Associa- tion, the North Scituate Library Association and a designee of the Scituate School Committee. This past year has seen a very pronounced measure of cooperation between the public schools and the libraries which has made it possible to better serve the reading and reference requirements of the students.
In our exciting long-range planning for effectively coordinating the efforts of the libraries, 1964 will see more efficient procedures for the work of staff members, an exchanging of staff between libraries, the coordination of book selection policies and interchange of books as needed. In addition, the clerical detail of the two libraries will be coordinated. These first steps will give better service with broader scope to the community.
Respectfully submitted,
EDITH T. SANBORN Head Librarian

TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
Mr. Arthur H. Mackinnon Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation Boston, Massachusetts
Sir:
In accordance with your instruction, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Scituate for the period from April 10, 1962, the date of the previous examination, to March 31, 1963, and submit the following report thereon:
The records of the financial transactions of the town, as shown on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked with the records of the town comptroller and the town treasurer for the period of the audit.
The books and accounts in the office of the town comptroller were examined and checked. The receipts, as recorded, were checked with the records of the depart- ments making payments to the treasurer and with the treasurer's books, while the payments were checked with the treasury warrants approved by the selectmen and with the treasurer's cash book. The appropriations and transfers were checked with the town clerk's records of town meetings, and the transfers from the reserve fund were checked with the records of the advisory board.
The comptroller's ledgers were analyzed, the necessary adjusting entries resulting from the audit of the several departments were made, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial con- dition of the town on March 31, 1963.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The recorded receipts were compared with the several departmental records of payments to the treasurer, with other sources from which the town received money, and with the comptroller's books, while the recorded payments were checked with the approved warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds and with the comptroller's books. The cash balance on March 31, 1963, was proved by actual count of the cash in the office, by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit, and by verification of the investments in United States Treasury bills.
The transactions of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were verified, the savings bank books representing the investment of these funds being examined and listed.
The recorded payments on account of maturing debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file. The amount of interest unpaid was listed and reconciled with the balance as shown by a state- ment furnished by the bank of deposit.
The records of payroll deductions for Federal and State taxes, the county re- tirement system, and group insurance were examined and checked, the payments to the proper agencies being verified.
106
TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and checked in detail. The taxes and water liens transferred to the tax title account were compared with the town collector's books, the redemptions and sales of tax possessions were checked with the treasurer's recorded receipts, and the tax titles and tax possessions on hand March 31, 1963, were listed, reconciled with the comptroller's ledger, and checked with the records at the Registry of Deeds.
The books and accounts of the town collector were examined and checked. The taxes, excise, assessments, and water liens outstanding at the time of the pre- vious examination, as well as all subsequent commitments, were audited and proved. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the recorded abatements were proved with the assessors' records of abatements granted, the transfers to the tax title account were checked with the records of tax titles held by the town, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the comptroller's ledger.
The commitments of departmental and water accounts receivable were ex- amined and checked. The recorded collections were proved with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements as recorded were compared with the departmental records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the controlling ledger accounts.
It is recommended that action be taken by the new collector to bring about a complete settlement of all taxes of prior years.
The aggregates by levies of the taxes, excise, assessments, and water liens outstanding on March 31, 1963, were reported to the assessors for their use in preparing recommitment warrants to the new collector, and detailed lists of the outstanding accounts were furnished the new collector for his use.
Detailed lists of the outstanding water accounts were given to the new collector for his use, and the total amount of outstanding water accounts was reported to the water commissioners for their use in preparing a recommitment warrant.
The outstanding tax, excise, assessment, departmental, and water accounts were further 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 and checked. The collections on account of dog and sporting licenses, as well as of miscellaneous receipts, were verified and compared with the payments to the State and to the town treasurer.
The surety bonds filed by the town officials who are required by law to furnish them were examined and found to be in proper form.
The records of licenses and permits issued by the selectmen, and the building, wire, plumbing, and gas inspectors, as well as by the police and health depart- ments, were checked, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
107
TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
The available records of departmental cash collections by the sealer of weights and measures, as well as by the school and all other departments in which money was collected for the town, were examined and checked. The payments to the treasurer were verified and the cash on hand in the several departments was proved.
There are appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash, summaries of the tax, excise, assessment, tax title, tax possession, departmental, and water accounts, together with schedules showing the condition and transactions of the trust and investment funds.
During the progress of the audit cooperation was received from all the town officials, for which, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM SCHWARTZ Assistant Director of Accounts
P.S. For details see Report on file at the office of the Comptroller.

108
TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
The fourteen Trust and Investment Accounts were audited. These Funds have been deposited in Savings Banks so as to earn maximum yield consistent with the greatest degree of safety.
The newly designed purchase order system has provided a means for encum- bering appropriations thus assisting departments to make more prudent purchases.
Appropriation statements were prepared by the Comptroller's office and submitted monthly to all departments charged with expenditures of Town funds.
Total mechanization of ledger posting has been accomplished in the accounting system by re-designing and modernizing the checks and ledger forms being used.
Four modern office machines have been purchased and installed for the purpose of obtaining simplification of operations and greater time and cost savings.
Respectfully submitted, OTTO H. SEISS Comptroller
