SELECTMEN'S REPORT
The first meeting of the Board of Selectmen and Overseers of the Poor was held on February 9, 1925 and organized with the choice of John I. Bryant as chairman and Isaac N. Babbitt as clerk. Miss Louise Babcock was chosen secretary of the Board of Overseers of the Poor and as secretary of the board has given universal satisfaction to the Selectmen and the Over- seers of the Poor and to the town in general.
The lot which was taken under the eminent domain act just north of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad and the Atlas Tack Company has been considerably improved since the last town meeting. The only question now is that the town needs a new building for storage purposes and there is an article in the warrant covering this which asks for an appro- priation for an additional storage room on the town lot.
Another matter in which the Selectmen are much interested is that of the Back Road or Alden Road, so called. The County Commissioners and the State Highway Commissioners have each allowed the sum of $6,000 for the Back Road and if the town votes to match the amount with $6,000 as they have done during the past two years, we will be able to continue this very desirable work. This present year, we are asking for an appropriation of $8,000. With that $8,000, the state and the county will contribute $8,000 each, making a total of $16,000 that they will give to the town for the finishing of this road. With our $8,000, we anticipate this total of $24,000 will be sufficient for us to complete the road, making a state road from the Acushnet line to the Mattapoisett Road which is all ready a state road leading to the Cape.

The new schoolhouse built on the lot on the corner of Washington Street and the New Boston Road as voted for at the special town meeting held March 25, 1924, is completed for the $67,000 as appropriated. The lot, containing two acres and eight rods, was taken under the eminent domain act and the parties refused to accept the $3,000 which was appropriated for this purpose at the town meeting held February 9, 1924. We found when digging the cellar for drainage purposes that we could get no relief, so we were compelled to take more land for drainage purposes. At a special town meeting held October 20, 1924, it was voted to appropriate $2,500 for the taking of 96.33 rods of cleared land and 136.71 rods of rocky pasture. The owners refused to accept the award as made by the Select- men and brought suit in the Superior Court at New Bedford within and for the County of Bristol and on January 9, 1925, the court ordered damages of $10,000. We therefore asked for $4,500 in the warrant of February 9, 1925 to go with the $5,500 as all ready stated above.
There is an article in the warrant to see if the town will vote to accept from Cara L. Broughton as a gift to the town forever the Fort Phoenix property consisting of 21/2 acres and the board most respectfully recommends that the town vote unani- mously to accept this property as a memorial to Henry H. Rogers, Fairhaven's benefactor.
There is also an article in the warrant to see if the town will vote to take by purchase or otherwise the Union Wharf property. We have a frontage on the water of not less than five or six miles and yet we have no way of getting to the water. We believe that the water front of our town should be controlled by the town. We believe that we should own the Union Wharf property consisting of 41/2 acres and we are satisfied that we will receive some revenue from this property.
We are now the largest town in the County of Bristol and in consequence of this, we will have more taxes to pay this year
66
as our county tax than any other town in the county. The County of Bristol has paid one quarter of the whole amount of the cost of all the state roads built in the county and this year the County tax due the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, is $160,000, which means that every town and city must bear their share of the burden of that tax. In this, neither the County Commissioners nor the Selectmen of the town have anything to do but pay the bill.
We have in the office of the Selectmen many petitions for the laying out of streets which, in the judgment of the Select- men can not be done for they can not see their way clear to do so. However, we are glad to listen to any person who has any complaint to make in regard to the streets. It must be understood that we have to safeguard the interests of the town in what we are doing and we are and have been fixing up many streets that were not laid out by the town. We would do more if we had the cinders to fix the streets with but because of the mills not working it is utterly impossible for us to get what the mills do not provide.
We also have many petitions for street lights. For the last three years, the Selectmen of the town have settled the whole question of street lights and we are now looking into this matter so that there will be a uniform system in the question of street lights.
All of which we most respectfully submit.
As a part of the requirements of the town for the coming year, we report the following for Debt and Interest :

REPORT OF HIGHWAY DEPT.
At the beginning of the year, the Selectmen appointed Thomas W. Whitfield as superintendent of streets. At the annual and special town meetings a year ago many streets were laid out, graded and accepted by the town. Many of them have been put in passable condition and on some of them side- walks have been laid.
There was a small amount appropriated for these streets and therefore it was necessary to overrun the appropriation in nearly all of them. During 1924 and 1925, many of our streets and roads suffered terribly by the bad weather con- ditions, the same being true throughout the whole Common- wealth and this was the cause of the Highway Department overrunning its appropriation several hundred dollars. The work simply had to be done and we believe that the inhabitants of the town of Fairhaven appreciate the fact that it was abso- lutely necessary to repair many of our streets and resurface them.
The following streets were macadamized and resurfaced : Dean Street, Morton Street and a part of the New Boston Road. North Main Street, from Huttleston Avenue to the north end of the town, was given a surface of tar and gravel on the block paving and this was the only part of the town that received this kind of treatment. We have every reason to believe that this was appreciated by the many people who use North Main Street. Washington Street widening was caused by order of the State Highway Commission and for which we were put to the expense, in the annual town meeting, of appropriating $10,000 for land damages.
70
The town had many buildings to move back and the damages to the owners for the land taken is to be covered by an article in the warrant to raise money for that purpose, which was over- drawn.
Sidewalks are also to be placed on Washington Street as a result of this widening as a state highway. These could not be laid last year but will be completed during the present year. The Shaw Road has also received considerable repairing with cinders and we have reason to believe that the people using that thoroughfare are very much pleased to know that the town has done this although it is not an accepted street. Many other streets in the town have received some attention, especially in the outlying districts and the board would be very much pleased to have done more if they could have obtained the necessary cinders, but, as the mills are not running, we could not get the cinders to do the work.
The coming year, the town proposes to establish a new system in the laying of sidewalks and that is, to take a par- ticular section of the centre of the town and gradually work outward by laying fine or small crushed stone with tar binder and roll it smooth to make a sidewalk in order to save the expense necessary for the laying of granolithic sidewalks and yet give the public an opportunity in bad weather of walking upon a sidewalk made by what we call the tar binder system. During the past year, William Street from Center to Union Streets and Adams Street near the St. Joseph's Church have had granolithic sidewalks laid. We have an article in the war- rant to appropriate $3,000 for more granolithic sidewalks, still we believe that our new system which we shall try will answer the same purpose and cost a good deal less money and we believe the town will be very much pleased with it also.
The grading of the grounds around the New Boston School and the building of the walls outside were also done by the Street Department.
71
We do not want to lose sight of the fact that one hundred fifty feet of new pipe was laid for the sluice way in Huttleston Avenue, taking the drainage from the land at the east of the Avenue, and this was laid and paid for by the Street Depart- ment. Otherwise, it would have cost us a great deal more money. The old sluice way as built by Mr. Rogers had given out and it was necessary for the town to build something new in that line at once, owing to the fact that the old water way had caved in. Bridge Park, on the north side of the bridge where the big pipe caved in, was graded and the sea wall built by the Street Department.
The ashes and rubbish have been taken care of during the past year as well as could be expected considering that many times we were short of help and men as a rule do not care for that kind of work. We again most respectfully ask that the citizens of the town do not dump rubbish in the gutters of the streets as in the first place it is against the law and in the second place it makes a rather unsightly mess, so we hope that the citizens will co-operate with the superintendent of streets. whoever he may be, in this particular work.
All of which is most respectfully submitted.
THOMAS W. WHITFIELD,
Superintendent of Streets.
