ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
SELECTMEN
We wish to call the attention of the voters to the necessity for more police protection in certain parts of the town. the southern part including lower Elm. Everett, Chapin and Marcy streets extension, South, Sayles, High, Water, Winter and School streets have no police protection of any kind. This would mean en- larging the police force.
