Prospectors for true life are we,
All searching on eternally For treasure that we call success
In this, a world of joy and stress.
May we stake out a worthwhile claim,
Inspired, in part, by hope of fame.
The ore, we have within our soul;
Refinement is in our control.
We'll strive to find the golden prize, Our one great dream to realize. Tonight our new life we begin: "Our Aim, Success-Our Hope, To Win."

Gentlemen:
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Wakefield for the period from May 15, 1948 to May 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, As- sistant Director of Accounts.
Very truly yours, FRANCIS X. LANG, Director of Accounts

REPORT OF STATE AUDIT
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 Wakefield for the period from May 15, 1948, the date of the previous examination, to May 31, 1949, and submit the following report thereon :
The records of financial transactions of the several departments re- ceiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collec- tion were examined and checked for the period covered by the audit.
The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were compared with the treas- urer's books and with the records in the several departments collecting money for the town or committing bills for collection. The recorded pay- ments were checked with the treasury warrants and with the disburse- ments as shown by the treasurer's books. The appropriations, transfers, and loan orders, as entered on the ledger, were checked with the town clerk's records of town meeting votes and with the finance committee's authorizations of transfers from the reserve fund.
The general and appropriation ledger accounts were analyzed, the necessary adjusting entries resulting from the audit were made, and a balance sheet, a copy of which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on May 31, 1949.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The cash book additions were verified, and the cash balance on May 31, 1949 was proved by actual count of the cash in the office and by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements received from the de- positories.
The recorded receipts were analyzed and checked with the town ac- countant's books, with the records of the several departments collecting money for the town, and with other sources from which money is paid into the town treasury. The payments were compared with the treasury warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the town accountant's ledger.
The records of payroll deductions on account of federal taxes, etc., were examined and reconciled with the ledger controls.
The payments on account of maturing debt and interest were proved with the amounts falling due and checked with the cancelled securities and coupons on file. The outstanding coupons on May 31, 1949 were listed and reconciled with the balance in the bond and coupon account as shown by a statement furnished by the bank of deposit.
The savings bank books and securities representing the investment of the several trust, investment, and retirement funds in the custody of the town treasurer, the library trustees, and the Wakefield Trust Com-
230
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
pany as trustee were personally examined and listed. The income was proved and all transactions and balances were verified and compared with the books of the town treasurer and the town accountant and, in the case of the retirement funds, with the records of the retirement board.
The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and checked in detail. The amounts added to the tax title account were compared with the collector's and the accountant's books, the abatements and foreclosures were verified, and the redemptions and sales were checked with the entries in the treasurer's cash book. The tax titles and tax possessions on hand were listed and reconciled with the ledger controls, and all transactions were checked with the records at the Registry of Deeds.
The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked. The taxes and assessments outstanding at the time of the previ- ous audit, as well as all subsequent commitments, were verified and audited. The recorded collections were checked with the payments to the treasurer as shown by the town treasurer's, and the town accountant's books; the abatements, as entered, were compared with the assessors' rec- ords of abatements granted; and the cutstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the town accountant's ledger accounts.
The collector's cash books were footed and the cash balance on May 31, 1949 was proved by actual count of cash in the office.
The records of assessments apportioned were examined and the ap- porticned assessments not due were listed and reconciled with the town accountant's controlling accounts.
The records of departmental and water accounts receivable were ex- amined. The commitments were verified, 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, checked with the available records in the several departments, including the commitment lists kept in the water department, and reconciled with the controlling accounts in the town accountant's ledger.
Verification of the outstanding tax, assessment, departmental and water accounts, as well as the municipal light accounts, was made 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 outstanding accounts, as listed, are correct.
The financial records of the town clerk were examined and checked in detail. The collections on account of dog and sporting licenses issued and from marriage intentions, recording fees, and miscellaneous charges were verified and compared with the payments to the town treasurer and to the Division of Fisheries and Game. The cash book was footed and the cash balance on May 31, 1949 was verified.
231
REPORT OF STATE AUDIT
The town clerk's official record book of town meeting votes was found to be incomplete and it is recommended that the records be completed and kept up to date at all times.
The records of departmental cash collections by the board of select- men, the sealer of weights and measures, the inspectors of buildings, milk and plumbing, as well as by the police, fire, health, highway, public wel- fare, school, library, park, and cemetery departments, were examined and checked. The payments to the town treasurer were verified and the cash on hand in the several departments, including petty cash advances, was proved by actual count.
The records of guarantee deposits for sewer connections were exam- ined. The recorded deposits, the transfers to the town to cover the cost of work done, and the amounts refunded were verified and proved to the treasurer's and the town accountant's books, and the deposits on hand on May 31, 1949 were listed and reconciled with the cash in the office and in the general treasury.
The books and accounts of the municipal light department were aud- ited. The consumers' accounts were examined and the outstanding gas, electric, and sundry accounts receivable as of June 30, 1949 were listed and proved with the departmental controls and the accountant's ledger. The controlling accounts were analyzed and checked with the depart- mental and the accountant's ledger accounts, while the recorded collec- tions were proved to the treasurer's and the accountant's books.
The municipal light department ledger was examined, and a trial balance proving the accounts to be in balance was taken off and com- pared with the town accountant's ledger.
The guarantee deposit account was checked with the records on file, and the balance on June 30, 1949 was reconciled with the cash in the office and in the banks.
The surety bonds furnished by the several officials required by law to furnish such surety were examined and found to be in proper form.
In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's, the tax collector's, and the town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax, assessment, tax title, depart- mental, municipal light, and water accounts, as well as schedules showing the condition and transactions of the trust, investment, and retirement accounts.
For the cooperation received from all the town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted, HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts
