Commercial fishermen totaled around $48,000. Over 1,000 family permits were taken out and 53 non-resident permits were issued. There was more activity along the beaches than any time in my experience. There were no scallops but a good set of seed is showing up this winter.
Money has been appropriated and State aid promised for a propagation program, but this had to be passed up this year as no seed was available.
West Island is beginning to be a big factor with over 300 property owners, mostly recreational and eligible for permits.
All complaints were investigated.

Report of Fairhaven Committee on Street and Highway Safety
To the Board of Selectmen:
We are sorry to report two deaths in 1947. In addition to these two deaths Fairhaven had a total of 79 accidents in which there were 113 injured, 22 being pedestrians. Is it any wonder our automotive insurance rates have been increased?
Speed and alcohol were the contributing factors to the deaths and we hope that the memories of those responsible for the deaths might prevent them from repeating.

Report of the Park Commission
To the Citizens of the Town of Fairhaven:
The Park Department carried on with its usual schedule as to upkeep. The generous appropriation of $7,000. proved a necessary expenditure if the nine properties of Park custody were to be kept in creditable shape together with playgrounds, extensions at Livesey, increased cost of labor and of every least repair and equipment.
Major projects were the replacement of one gun carriage at Fort Phoenix; reconditioning of the tennis courts at Cushman (expensive but necessary if the courts were to be used at all); and more extensive work at Livesey to condition the athletic field. A new mower was bought for rough grass on this large area where a formal lawn is neither practical nor desirable.
At Cushman, in line with present policy, more of the center planting was removed, sparce borders were strengthened and more trees were set including a number of small pines at Cook Memorial, Cushman and Fort Phoenix which in time should make a distinct addition. Some sections of Cushman borders are growing wild in less noticeable areas at the north and south, but are beyond the ability of three men to cope with.
The Japanese beetle made its inroads though perhaps only noticeable to a close observer, but a menace to abutting gardens and eventually to lawns and plantings on all park areas. As noted in years before the proximity of attractive well-kept gardens adds materially to park property.
The seven weeks of playgrounds under the direction of David E. Warner, Jr., a man with recreational training, scored a successful season. The usual diversified activities with some additional games and contests were the order of the day, expenses were kept at a minimum and equipment suffered only the ordinary wear and tear. In his report Mr. Warner gives much credit to his three helpers but he himself handled some irritating problems with the older children with marked success. The total daily average was 130, 72 for Livesey and 187 for Cushman.

Report of the Tree Warden and Moth Superintendent
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
Gentlemen:
All street trees throughout the town have been sprayed, as well as a large number on private property to safeguard our shade trees. In various parts of the town I have given a second spraying to keep under control the later breeding of beetles. As a result of this extra care given the elms the leaves remained on the trees much longer and in a healthier condition.
During the spraying season of 1947 I have used D.D.T. with a mixture of arsenate and we have had very good results. Thirty- five larger dangerous trees were taken down and also a number of smaller trees. A large number of trees in various parts of the town have been trimmed. One hundred trees were planted this past year and it is planned to continue the work next year. For care of trees in 1948 I recommend an appropriation of $4,500.
There have been no browntail moths on the trees this year but there have been a number of gypsy moths both on street trees and private property and also a large number of tent caterpillars. Creosote has been used in the treatment and spraying has been done to eliminate the tent caterpillars. I recommend an appropriation of $300 for insect pest extermination.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN JARVIS, Superintendent

Report of Police Department
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
Gentlemen:
Below and on the following pages you will find the report of the Fairhaven Police Department for the year ending December 31, 1947.
.
Police Department Personnel
The roster of the Fairhaven Police Department for 1947 was as follows:
Chief of Police
8 Regular Police Officers (active)
2 Policewomen
42 Spare Police Officers
50 Reserve Police Officers
25 Special Police Officers
128 Total for 1947
Retired on pension:
Patrolman Joseph B. Silva 1938 Deceased Chief George T. Sykes 1939
Retired:
Patrolman Charles V. Eddy 1947
Increased Business
More people means more police business.
The population of Fairhaven has risen to 12,072 from 12,025 this past year, plus four or five thousand summer residents. Much business income is brought into town by this latter group. The many new homes being built throughout town indicate a further increase in population and tax revenue.
83
If the rate at which Sconticut Neck and West Island were built up in 1947 is repeated in 1948 it will not be long before we will have to have one cruiser car cover just East Fairhaven, Sconticut Neck, and West Island. This will mean increased costs for man-
power and maintenance. The need for increased coverage is borne out by the fact that most of the new buildings on Sconticut Neck are permanent homes which will require year-round service.
As much service as possible is given all summer colonies during periods of vacancy. An occupied house is somewhat self-protecting; but a vacant house is a target for vandals and others with criminal intent.
New summer cottages being built on Sconticut Neck and at other beaches will be occupied by more people needing, in the summer months, the same police and ambulance services as perma- nent residents are afforded.
Traffic
This department's budget request for 1948 includes an iten of $240, which, if allowed, would permit us to provide services which would be very effective in dealing with traffic. For several years money which I requested for these same purposes has not been allowed. It is, therefore, not surprising that accidents, traffic checkups, and license suspension recommendations all have increased.
The accident increase is national. Causes, we know, are too much liquor, speed, negligence, and inattention. The Fairhaven Police Department should be so financed that it can shoulder the Town's share of responsibility to lower the accident rate.
Usually an officer controls traffic four times daily in the vicinity of the Job C. Tripp School, and whenever possible similar work is done in the vicinity of the Oxford School twice daily. To make this service possible investigations are many times interrupted and ambulance cases rescheduled. Sometimes it is not possible to do this traffic work at the schools; but in nearly every such instance the schools are notified so that janitors can direct traffic. I know of no other way school traffic can be handled unless the janitors are delegated the responsibility as a regular part of their work.
This department is glad to give this service to the schools; and I want the public to realize we are doing the best we can under the circumstances.
84
The proposed rebuilding of Sconticut Neck Road is a project which meets with general favor. However, the elimination of curves, the wider roadway, and an improved surface are factors which will combine with the increased use of the road to give this department more traffic problems - mainly speeding.
Ambulance Cases
Many of our ambulance runs are between New Bedford hos- pitals and rest homes in Mattapoisett and other neighboring towns. Other cases take us to Boston, Newport, or other cities.
In nearly all ambulance cases the cruiser car is out of service while the ambulance runs are made, one officer driving and the other acting as an attendant, as in the typical case no attendant is available to ride with the patient, who must not ride alone.
For distant runs extra help is hired, increasing our costs.
Bicycle Registration
During 1947 two hundred ninety-six bicycle registrations were issued. Compulsory registration in Fairhaven continues to hold thefts to a low level and to produce revenue. Considerable work is required to properly conduct this phase of our work.
Insufficient Funds
The money voted at the 1947 annual town meeting proved to be insufficient to cover wages and department maintenance. It was, therefore, necessary to request the Finance Committee for a transfer from the Reserve Fund. A $900 transfer was granted.
Non-payroll costs, alone, for 1947 added up to $3,488.96. This is $90.96 more than I had estimated for non-payroll at the start of the year.
During the year it was seen that the department needs a boat, trailer, and equipment for saving lives and for recovering persons and property from overboard. Available funds, however, did not permit the purchase of this equipment; and no provision has been made for it in the 1948 budget request filed with the Finance Committee.
85
Pay Scale Too Low
In my travels and in my contacts with heads of other police departments I have failed to find the low pay scale prevailing in Fairhaven duplicated anywhere. Living costs of Fairhaven patrol- men and myself are as high as in other towns. The increased cost of uniforms and other wearing apparel is just an example.
A satisfied employee is bound to render more satisfactory service, feeling that he is satisfactorily paid. In this connection I remind you that the weekly pay of $42.50 thought reasonable and requested by Fairhaven patrolmen a year ago was not allowed. I remind you, also, that other towns paid patrolmen in 1947 -$45 to $48 and up per week.
The pay rate requested in Fairhaven for 1948 is lower than that paid in 1947 in many police departments.
Appreciation
The Board of Selectmen, the other town departments, other police departments, the press, Radio Station WNBH, the business- men, and the public have given patrolmen and I a great deal of help. It is my purpose to say "Thank you."
My appreciation goes, also, to Chairman Victor O. B. Slater of the Fairhaven Committee on Street and Highway Safety, the Superintendent of Schools, the school faculty, and the student body, all of whom have assisted the police department in promoting safety.
Respectfully submitted,
NORMAN D. SHURTLEFF, Chief of Police

Report of the School Committee
To the Citizens of Fairhaven:
The annual report of the School Committee for the year ending December 31, 1947 is submitted herewith.
EDUCATIONAL AIM
The aim of the American public school is to make the lives of childen richer and fuller, with equal opportunities for each accord- ing to his ability and achievement. The legislature has specified certain requirements which promote this aim and has permitted local school committees a good deal of discretion in adding to the minimum requirements.
The public has rightfully demanded education for its children, and the School Committee has endeavored to carry out what it con- siders a mandate from the public.
As an indication that the Committee has not gone beyond the public demand, we can state that there has been no serious suggestion to decrease our services or eliminate any function. The demand has been to maintain or expand our present system. The Committee has, therefore, prepared its estimates for 1948 in accordance with what it believes the best interests of the schools and of the town.
TEACHERS
The problem of keeping our teaching positions filled is a double one. There is not only the problem of salaries but also the problem of securing teachers regardless of salaries. A new schedule for regular classroom teachers was put into effect in 1947 as indicated below:
Grades 1-7
Grade 8
High School
Former minimum
1400
1500
1600
New minimum
1900
1900
1900
Former maximum
1900
2000
2100
New maximum
2500
2600
2700
96
The 1948 estimates include provision for raising the maximum salaries of all teachers in grades one to eight by $100.00.
In setting salaries in accordance with these figures we have only kept ourselves in a middle position compared with other munici- palities many of which have raised maximum salaries to $3,000.00 or more.
REPAIRS AND IMPROVEMENTS
Repairs and improvements paid from the special repair ap- propriation were as follows:
High School
Plumbing
$1,014.40
Chimneys
1,350.00
Dormers
146.55

Roof and gutters
2,388.19
Washington St.
Gutters
185.00
Architect

$7,865.73
In addition to these items there were numerous other repairs made on school property from the regular appropriation. Among them were repairs to the Washington Street schoolhouse tower, covering Oxford School boilers, and improvement in Rogers School heating. Vandalism has been more prevalent than usual this year and many window panes have had to be replaced.
We have about two million dollars' worth of property to keep up. It is a constant problem but is now greater than normal due to postponing some repairs during the war. We recommend that the Town provide $10,000.00 in 1948 for continuing the special repair program.
We are also recommending a special appropriation of $2,000.00 for bitimunous concrete work. The Oxford School playground which is also used in the evening for auto parking, should have a hard surface. Provision should also be made for a hard surface on the High School tennis courts.
97
CONCLUSION
The report of the Superintendent of Schools and other informa- tion furnished by him are presented as a part of the report of the School Committee.
