JOHN H. STETSON,
Tax Collector
Report of the Police Department
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the people of Fairhaven :
Below and on following pages you will find the Annual Re- port of the Police Department for the year ending December 31, 1933.
Taxpayer's Interest a Vital Concern
There has come to me the honor of presenting to you a statement regarding the conduct of the department which has been under my direction and control during about the last eleven months of the year, and as to the bills to which approval has been given and which, by request, have been placed on warrants for payment during the year. In the past twelvemonths we have seen many federal, state, and local plans put into action to stim- ulate trade, raise wages, and increase employment. Some of us have seen some improvement in conditions. However, so far the gain has not been great enough to wrest us from the grip of the worst depression in history. The position of the taxpayer in the crisis is well known. Conducting a monopoly created by law and being taxpayers ourselves instills in the officers and I a most vital concern for the taxpayer's interest-the protection of his life and property.
Sworn to uphold the laws of the Commonwealth of Massa- chusetts and of the Town of Fairhaven, and to perform the duties of our several offices to the best of our ability, my men and I have often given freely of our time that the work of the depart- ment would not be retarded. At no time during these eleven months have the costs of the department risen because one of us refused to work overtime. Every man in the department has done his utmost to insure the efficient handling of the work, and at the same time has taken advantage of every practical economy that presented itself. Although underpaid, we have taken a pay cut during the year so that the taxpayer's burden could be light- ened. For the same reason one of my men and I have endured the hardship of working day and night throughout the year.
