The analysis of the filtered water indicated that the filters are operat- ing efficiently as in previous years. During the process of scraping, it was necessary to remove about six hundred cubic yards of sand which will have to be replaced this year.


While resanding these filters, it will be necessary to provide an addi- tional supply of water. The Board strongly recommends that permananet pumping equipment be purchased and installed at the wells for this purpose.


Under a vote of the Town at a meeting held on September 21, the Department was authorized to borrow $70,000.00 from the U. S. Govern- ment, contingent upon a grant of $30,000.00 from the same source, this money to be used in a P. W. A. project of relaying old cement water mains. Upon receipt of a telegram stating that the project had been approved and the money allocated, the material was purchased and the project started. The work was continued until December 20, when due to the cold weather and frost in the ground, the labor cost was approximately forty per cent more, and it was not deemed economically feasible to continue.


It will be necessary during the coming year to examine and repair the cages on the pump suctions.


Lake Quannapowitt has received its usual care and attention, copper sulphate having been applied on August 1, 1933. We recommend that this treatment be continued.

PERMANENT IMPROVEMENTS


Both standpipes were emptied, thoroughly cleaned, and received two coats of red lead and oil on the inside. A concrete floor, four inches thick also was installed in standpipe number two, located on Hart's Hill.


New windows and frames were installed to replace old ones where necessary, and also new gutters put in the dwelling house at the Pumping Station.


A new Dodge coupe was purchased, during the year.


WATER SUPPLY


Our source of water supply, Crystal Lake, continues to be of good quality as usual, and the elevation of the lake on December 31 was 21.5 inches below high water mark.


The filter plant, which has been in operation since February 8, 1928, is rendering excellent service, but during that time approximately nine inches of sand has been removed in the process of scraping. The same amount will have to be replaced during the coming year.


LOW LEVEL SEWER SYSTEM


The Low Level Sewer System and Pumping Station, installed in 1926, are still giving excellent service.

REPORT OF MUNICIPAL LIGHT BOARD


Report of the Municipal Light Board


To the Citizens of the Town of Wakefield:


We submit for your consideration the fortieth annual report of the Municipal Light Board, covering the year ending December 31, 1933.


The results from the operation of the Department as a whole are quite satisfactory, after taking into consideration the general business con- ditions during the past year. The total profit after deducting debt retire- ments for 1933 were $22,276.57 as against $31,795.55 for 1932.


The decrease in our net profit is due almost entirely, to a loss in gas sales. In 1932 our gas sales were $129,316 and in 1933, $116,747 a difference of about 9.7%. We are not however, any worse off in this respect than the privately owned companies of New England; the American Gas Association reports a decrease in revenue of 8.7%.


Our electric sales show a slight increase over 1932, due to a greater consumption by domestic users and to a slight gain in industrial activity. The expense of the electric, department increased somewhat, so that the net profit, before debt retirements was $27,471 as compared to $30,472 for 1932.


We are again asking the Town to appropriate $18,000 for street light- ing. In 1933 the Town voted to take this same amount from the balance of our operating fund, so that it did not cost the Town anything for this service.


In addition to the $18,000 turned over to the Town, we have furnished materials and service to the town to the extent of $5,822.80.


The balance of our Operation Fund is $16,526.57 as compared to $31,687.59 for 1932. This decrease is due to decreased income and slowness . in the collection of outstanding account.


A new rate schedule for commercial power became effective January 1, 1933. This was the only change made in our rates during the year.


The report of the Manager showing the financial condition of the plant, as of December 31, 1933 and its operations of the year, are included in this report.


The books of the Department are being audited by C. O. Huntington and Company, Certified Public Accountants.


Respectfully submitted,


MARCUS BEEBE, 2nd, Chairman, A. FRANCIS HARRINGTON, Secretary, CURTIS L. SOPHER,


Board of Commissioners,

TOWN OF WAKEFIELD


To the Board of Light Commissioners,


Town of Wakefield, Massachusetts.


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my annual report of this Department for the year ending December 31, 1933.


GAS DEPARTMENT


The net sales of this section were $116,747.78, the operating expense $108,186.43 and a net operating income of $8,561.35 for 1933; in 1932 the net income was $13,823.18.


ELECTRIC DEPARTMENT


The net sales of this section were $180,378.29; the operating expense $149,341.74 with a net operating income of $31,036.55 for 1933; in 1932 this figure was $30,472.37.


BONDED DEBT


This item has been reduced from $111,500.00 to $99,000.00.


PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT


Plant investments and general equipment have decreased $11,881.44, 'this is due to excess of depreciation over construction.


With the decision of the Selectmen to relay with concrete, the side- walk on the East side of Main Street between Mechanic Street and Cres- cent Street, this department laid a new 6 inch steel gas main in the sidewalk location and connected all services to this new main, abandoning the old 6 inch cast iron main in the traveled way. The same was done with the West side of Main Street from Albion Street south to the existing concrete sidewalk. This enabled the department to do away with long services crossing Main Street, and the old main laid fifty or sixty years .ago, that have been a source of annoyance, the deterioration of the line causing leaks.


The improvement of Lowell Street from Main Street to the Reading line with State and County aid, made the extension of the present main to Line Road advisable before construction of the Road surface.


Chestnut Street from Park Avenue to Prospect Street old cast iron '4" main was replaced by 4" steel pipe. This old main was broken many times in the past by heavy traffic and blasting. The usable lengths of old main were salvaged and used to replace the 11/2" pipe in Auburn Street.


A short extension of main was made in Lassell Street. The mains on


115


REPORT OF MUNICIPAL LIGHT BOARD


West Water Street, North Avenue and Main Street south of Mechanic · Street have been stripped and examined for leaks. The old line in Water Street from Main Street to the railroad crossing has been abandoned and connections made to the existing 4" steel main that was a part of the old high pressure system now discarded.


The process of resufacing Main Street from Hart's Hill to the railroad crossing warranted the abandonment of the old 3" gas main between Bennett Street and Charles Street, and connecting all services and the mains in Charles, Summer and Franklin Streets with the 6" line which is continuous to Greenwood.


A supplementary three phase aerial line has been placed on poles in Foundry Street to Broadway as a standby unit in the power line to the Water Department Pumping Station and Broadway.


The underground lines of the electric system have been extended somewhat, due to the Main Street sidewalk construction, they were ex- tended from the existing manhole near the Universalist Church to Cres- cent Street across the lower end of the Common to existing ducts at Lafa- yette Street and southerly on Common and Main Streets to Avon Street; so that, when/if, the underground system is extended through Yale Avenue and Avon Street from North Avenue a circuit will be available.

I again wish to thank the Commissioners, the general public and the employees of this department for their continued support and loyalty.


I cannot close this report without some reference to the death of Roger B. Fish, an operator at the substation. He was one of the original men chosen for training at the Edison Station in Woburn, before the operation of the station here. Mr. Fish was well liked by the men of this Department and we all regret his passing.


Yours respectfully,


SAMUEL H. BROOKS,

REPORT OF MUNICIPAL LIGHT BOARD


Fire Alarm and Police Signal Systems


January 2, 1934


To the Municipal Light Commissioners,


Town of Wakefield, Massachusetts


Gentlemen :


Since the assumption of the operation and maintenance of these sys -- tems last year, no additions or extensions have been made. The traffic sig- nals have been in constant operation with minor repairs, the same apply- ing to the Fire Alarm and Police signals.


The lines are in first class order, batteries and charging devices under constant supervision. A receiving set has been installed in the patrol car of the Police Department and it is recommended that three (3) ad- ditional Fire Alarm boxes and one Police signal box be installed in the - near future.


Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL H. BROOKS,
