Mr. J. Edward Demers, Chairman Southbridge, Massachusetts


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Southbridge for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1934, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.


Very truly yours, THEODORE N. WADDELL


Director of Accounts

Mr. Theodore N. Waddell


Director of Accounts


Department of Corporations and Taxation


State House, Boston


Sir :


As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Southbridge for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1934, and submit the following report thereon:


The financial transactions as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town, or committing bills for collection, were examined and reconciled with the books and records of the accountant's office.


ACCOUNTANT'S DEPARTMENT - The books and ac- counts in the town accountant's office were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were verified by a comparison with the treasurer's books and with the records in the several departments making the original charges. The disbursements were checked with the warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the payments as shown by the treasurer's books. Approved vouchers and pay- rolls were examined and checked with the books of original entry, and the recorded appropriations and transfers voted by the town were verified by a comparison with the town clerk's records of town meeting.


The general and appropriation ledgers were analyzed, and a balance sheet, showing the financial condition of the town as of December 31, 1934, was prepared and is appended to this report.


TREASURER'S DEPARTMENT - The books and ac- counts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in


100


detail. The recorded receipts were analyzed and compared with the collector's records of payments to the treasurer, with the records in the several departments in which charges origi- nated or in which money was collected for the town, and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury. The recorded disbursements were compared with the warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the accountant's books.


The cash book was footed, the cash on hand on January 16, 1935, was verified by an actual count, and the bank balances were reconciled with statements furnished by the banks of deposit.


The payments on account of debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file.


The savings bank books representing the investments of the several trust funds in the custody of the treasurer were exam- ined and listed, the income being proved and the withdrawals verified.


Schedules showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash and summaries of the trust funds have been prepared and are appended to this report.


The tax title deeds on hand were examined and listed. The amounts transferred from the several tax levies and assessments to the tax title account were verified, and the tax title deeds as listed were checked with the records in the Registry of Deeds.


COLLECTOR'S DEPARTMENT. - The books and ac- counts of the tax collector were examined and checked in de- tail. The commitments of taxes and assessments were compared with the warrants issued by the board of assessors, the abate- ments were checked with the assessors' records of abatements granted, the recorded collections were checked with the pay- ments to the treasurer as recorded on the treasurer's and the accountant's books, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


101


A verification of the outstanding taxes was made by sending notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


Schedules showing summaries of the accounts committed to the collector are appended to this report.


TOWN CLERK'S DEPARTMENT. - The financial re- cords of the town clerk were examined and checked in detail. The records of licenses granted were compared with the records of licenses issued, and the recorded receipts on account of licenses and permits were checked and proved. The recorded payments to the treasurer were verified by a comparison with the treasurer's books.


The collections on account of sporting licenses issued were verified and compared with the amounts paid the Division of Fisheries and Game.


PUBLIC BUILDING RENTALS. - The commitment of charges for the rental of municipal buildings was checked and verified, and the recorded receipts were proved with the pay- ments to the treasurer.


SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. - The re- cords of charges and cash collections were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


HEALTH DEPARTMENT. - The receipts from licenses issued and on account of reimbursements were compared with the payments to the treasurer.


The commitment of charges for the use of the ambulance were checked and verified. The recorded receipts were com- pared with the payments to the treasurer and outstanding ac- counts were listed.


PUBLIC WELFARE DEPARTMENT. - The commit- ments of charges for outside relief, mothers' aid, and old age assistance were examined and checked.


102


The recorded receipts on the departmental records were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the disallowances by the State were checked, and the outstanding accounts were listed.


SCHOOL DEPARTMENT. - The recorded collections for supplies, bus tickets, etc., were compared with the payments to the treasurer. The commitment of charges for tuition, etc., were examined and checked, the recorded collections being compared with the treasurer's records and the outstanding ac- counts being listed.


SURETY BONDS. - The surety bonds of the several town officials for the faithful performance of their duties were ex- amined and found to be in proper form.


CONCLUSION. - The manner in which the work has been done and the records kept in the treasurer's office is com- mendable.


It is urged that all departments report at least once each month to the town accountant of all commitments and abate- ments made by them, so that the several ledger accounts will reflect a true condition of the several accounts receivable.


For the courtesies extended and the assistance rendered by the various town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express ap- preciation.


Respectfully submitted,


HERMAN B. DINE


Assistant Director of Accounts
