It will be noted that on January 1, 1932 the bonded debt of the Water Department was only $3,333.33.
During the coming year $2,666.66 will be paid on the bonds, leaving a total debt of $666.66 to be paid in 1933.
The total receipts for the year 1931 were $39,404.54, and the estimated revenue for the year 1932 is $39,000.00.
If the total appropriations of $32,750.00 are allowed, the receipts and expenditures would be as follows :
Estimated receipts, $39,000.00
Expenditures, Maintenance, $26,000.00
Construction, 6,750.00
Bonds and interest, 2,667.00
35,417.00
Probable difference between total receipts and total expenditures, $3,583.00
During the past year the 4" pipe on Cherry Street was replaced with 8" pipe, and an extension of about 900 feet of 8" pipe was made on Samoset Street, as indicated in the report of the Superintendent.
We recommend that the 4" pipe on Warren Avenue, southerly from Hotel Pilgrim, be replaced by an 8" pipe, and that the present 8" pipe on Summer Street between Market Street and High Street, which has been in serv- ice since 1855, be replaced with 10". The estimated cost of these two jobs is $6750.00.
If this appropriation for reconstruction is granted, we agree with the suggestion of the Superintendent "that the maintenance appropriation might be reduced from $28,000.00 (the amount that has been granted us for the past five years) to $26,000.00," but if no reconstruction

appropriation is made we recommend a maintenance appropriation of $28,000.00.
Respectfully submitted,
