Arlington, March 9, 1936.
I hereby certify that I have this day appointed Edith L. Hearsey Assistant Town Clerk of Arlington, during my pleasure, and that she has taken the oath required for the faithful performance of her duties.
EARL A. RYDER,
Town Clerk.
ANNUAL MEETING
Arlington, March 18, 1936.
Pursuant to the Warrant of the Selectmen served according to law upon the inhabitants of the Town by a Constable of said Town, notices having been sent by mail by the Town Clerk seven days before the day of meeting to the Town Meeting Members elected and qualified to act in Town Meetings, in Arlington, and posted at two places in each precinct, the Town Meeting Members met in the Robbins Memorial Town Hall in said Town on Wednesday, March 18, 1936, at eight o'clock in the evening. The Warrant calling the meeting was the notice sent by mail by the Town Clerk.
Lists of the duly qualified Town Meeting Members were used at the entrances of the meeting place and were in charge of Philip T. Robinson and James E. Sweeney. The lists contained the names of two hundred and fifty- eight Town Meeting Members.

ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
The Check Lists filed with the Town Clerk at the close of the meeting showed that two hundred and twenty- three members attended the meeting.
James C. Carr, stenographer, was sworn by the Town Clerk to the faithful performance of his duties.
The meeting was called to order at 8:00 P.M. by the Moderator, Albert W. Wunderly, who declared a quorum present.
The Town Meeting Members were sworn by the Moderator.
Copies of the Warrant having been supplied to the Town Meeting Members, the Town Clerk read only the Call and the Constable's Return of the Warrant, the meeting voting on Chairman Davis's motion to dispense with the reading of the remainder of the warrant.
Chairman Davis requested that the Town Counsel, Selectman Lowe, Secretary of the Selectmen, and Mr. Ralph Adams of the Board of Public Works, be allowed to be seated with him and there being no objection such permission was granted.
On motion of Chairman Davis it was:
Voted: (Unanimously) That if all the business of the meeting as set forth in the warrant is not disposed of on this date, the meeting adjourn to Wednesday evening, March 25, 1936, at eight o'clock.
On motion of Chairman Davis:
Voted: (Unanimously) That at 8:27 P.M. the annual meeting be recessed until the business of the special meet- ing called for 8:30 P.M. is completed; and that in no event
91

shall the recess of the annual meeting extend beyond the time at which said special meeting is adjourned.

92
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
Voted: (Unanimously) That the report of the Finance Committee as presented in printed form be received.
Chairman Washburn, of the Committee to inquire into the inequalities of pay and pensions made a report of progress.
Chairman Marsh, of the Board of Public Works, presented the following report of the permanent town yard committee:
The garage at Hobbs Court Town Yard is danger- ously over-crowded when all equipment is housed at night.
Photograph is submitted herewith, showing this crowded condition. There is no passageway through the middle of the building. The aisle is completely filled with trucks and other equipment.
In case of fire, it would be almost impossible to save more than two or three pieces nearest the doors.
The garage was not designed to accommodate the number of vehicles now in use.
The total number of pieces of equipment stored in garage 1929

In addition to the above auto equipment, there are stored in the garage: 13 Heavy Duty, Blade Type, Truck Snow Plows. These plows were originally stored in sheds at the Summer St. Yard but had to be moved to Hobbs Ct. when sheds were destroyed.
Summer St. Town Yard.
It has been impossible to provide suitable space at
93
TOWN RECORDS
the Hobbs Ct. Yard for several activities and the Summer St. Yard is still occupied by the following services.
Blacksmith Shop. 829 Sq. Ft.
Carpenter and Paint Shop

Two Stables .

Sand Storage Shed

It is therefore apparent that some similar area will have to be provided at Hobbs Ct. Yard before complete consolidation can be effected.
Recommendation.
In the interest of FIRE PROTECTION and Econ- omy in operation, it is desirable to provide additional space for the proper storage of auto equipment. The necessity for fire protection is immediately apparent. The economies to be derived from consolidation of all depart- ments at one yard under one supervision are equally im- portant.
Previous Plans for Extension.
In the summer of 1935, the Selectmen applied for a W. P. A. Project to include the addition of one floor upon the present Water Shop. This project included Paint Shop and Blacksmith Shop in addition to the present Water Shop building.
Delays in obtaining approval for the Project from Washington made it impossible to undertake the work last Fall. It was therefore held over until Town Meeting this year for final approval by the Town. Early in February 1936, an alternate plan was suggested whereby additional floor area and also yard storage space could be
94
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
obtained. This proposal to purchase additional facilities for the use of the Public Works Dept., at 1083 Massachu- setts Ave. originated with the Board of Public Works.
We have compared the Purchase of additional prop- erty with the cost of the W. P. A. Project for Additions to the present Water Shop and submit the following opinion.
The W. P. A. Project will provide only the immediate addition of approx. 4800 sq. ft. of usable floor space for the storage of equipment and new Blacksmith and Paint Shops.
The use of the Second floor of the Water Shop will require driveway space in the rear of the building and interfere with the further development of the yard and also reduce the Pipe Storage yard.
This project will not provide sufficient additional space to allow removal of all activities from the Summer St. yard to the Hobbs Ct. yard.
No provision can be made for the open yard space required for the storage of Snow Plows, or for the erection of suitable sand storage shed or stables, if it is decided to retain same in the consolidated yard.
The purchase of the 1083 Mass. Ave. property will provide at once without expense, a suitable exit from the Hobbs Ct. Yard. The present exit at Hobbs Court out on to Mass. Ave. is very narrow, only 16 ft. and can not be widened except at great expense for land takings. Necessary changes in grade to make satisfactory con- nection with the Avenue also complicate any possible alteration at this bad corner. The Town has no outlet from the yard toward Brattle Street, except over Metro-
95
TOWN RECORDS
politan Water Works land, for which it is unable to obtain a lease or other positive assurance of use over any definite period of time.
The purchase of this property will allow the imme- diate removal of Yard and Water Shop offices from the present Water Shop thus providing sufficient storage area for the excess auto equipment now crowded in the present garage. The present Auto Repair Shop can also be given over to Storage space. The new building will provide suitable space for the consolidation of labor activities. Thus, the Auto Repair shop, Carpenter and Paint shop, Blacksmith shop, Water shop and Stock Rooms will be consolidated in one building, under the immediate super- vision of proper official. Many economies may be effected by this change.
The removal of All Public Works Activities from the Summer Street Yard will make it possible for the Town to use this area for such purpose as may be desired. The area of land thus released for other use by the Town is 248,292 sq. ft. If this land should be sold it would probably bring in a sum in excess of the total cost of the Purchase of 1083 Mass. Ave., the cost of alterations of buildings, and the cost of removal of and consolidations of these activities.
Plans have been prepared by Mr. G. Bertram Wash- burn, for the necessary alterations to the present building required for the consolidation of these shops. Bids have been received from reputable local contractors. We be- lieve that for the same amount of money expended in the purchase of and the remodelling of the present buildings to suit requirements, that it will be possible to obtain more than 50% more usable floor area, and (also approx. two-thirds of an acre of land) than would be obtained by the W. P. A. Project, under which present land must be occupied by the buildings to be constructed.
96
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
The amount of money to be contributed by the Town for materials and equipment under the W. P. A. Project, as authorized is $16,467.00.
By the purchase of this tract the present yard will not be encroached upon and will be preserved for further buildings as may be required for the enlarging activities of the Public Works dept.
Conclusion.
We recommend the purchase of the property at 1083 Massachusetts Ave. at the option price of Eighty-five hundred ($8500.00) dollars, plus adjusted water and tax items as may be indicated at time of transfer.
We recommend the immediate consolidation of the Summer Street Yard with the Hobbs Court Yard at the Hobbs Court location and new property 1083 Mass. Ave., and that the Summer Street Yard be abandoned by the Public Works department and turned over to the Town for other uses.
We approve the request for an appropriation for the sum of Eighty-five hundred ($8500.00) dollars for the alteration of buildings at 1083 Mass. Ave. and the removal of materials and equipment from Summer Street Yard to the Hobbs Court Yard.
We do not approve the undertaking of the so-called W. P. A. Project in the event of the Town acquiring the 1083 Mass. Ave. property.
We further do not approve the undertaking of the W. P. A. Project in preference to the purchase of the 1083 Mass. Ave. property.
Respectfully submitted,
Permanent Town Yard Committee. WALTER F. ROBINSON, F. HEDLEY BARNHILL, LOREN W. MARSH.

Roger W. Homer requested that the Committee ap- pointed by vote of the Town April 14, 1927, to make a study of a community or other building as a memorial, etc., requested that the Committee be discharged. On motion duly made and seconded it was
Voted: (Unanimously) That the Committee be dis- charged.
J. Howard Hayes presented the following report of the Committee to investigate and study the Public Li- brary accommodations at the Heights.
Under vote of the Town July 1931, this committee was authorized to procure plans and estimates for alter- ing, repairing or adding to the building on the land of the Town on the corner of Park Avenue and Paul Revere Road and/or for the construction of a new building on said land.
The plans for a new building with estimates for the same were submitted to the Federal Government in 1935 as a P. W. A. project, but was rejected. The cause of this rejection according to Congresswoman Edith Nourse Rogers was due to the fact that money originally appro- priated by the Federal Government for such projects was transferred to another department.
The people at the Heights have been asking for suit- able Library accommodations for over thirty years. The need for them has grown greater every year. The work at the Central Library at the present time is very con- gested and the proposed building at the Heights is greatly needed to serve the ever increasing population of adults and school children in the Heights section.
The activities of the Study Club and the Park Players for the purpose of raising a fund to be used for extra
98
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
furnishings of the proposed building show that there is a confident hope that the Town by some means in the near future will meet the imperative need of better library accommodations in the Heights Section of Arlington.
Respectfully submitted,
SARAH R. VAUGHN, J. HOWARD HAYES, VITTORIA C. DALLIN, WILLIAM A. MULLER, Chairman.
On motion of Richard Donovan:
Voted: (Unanimously) To discharge the Committee appointed June 21, 1932, to Investigate and Report on the advisability of acquiring a suitable playground or park for small children in the easterly section of the Town.
Mr. Frederic F. Lowe presented the following report of the Committee appointed by vote of the Town passed March 27, 1935, to consider the amendment, alteration, repeal or revision of, or additions to, the town's by-laws.
The committee has held twelve meetings, its in- dividual members have had numerous conferences with departments of the town and advertisements were in- serted in the Arlington papers regarding suggestions for the committee to consider.
The committee's work is represented by articles no. 37 and no. 38 in the warrant.
Briefly and broadly speaking the purpose of these amendments is to bring department duties in conformity to state laws, to control the distribution of undesirable printed matter, to protect against rabies, to check abuses in the house to house selling of articles, to prevent the
99
TOWN RECORDS
disfigurement of our streets, parks and ponds, and those affecting the building code are intended to clarify a few of the requirements, to strengthen where it appears neces- sary for the public good and to modify where it seemed desirable in order to lessen the cost of construction.
All these amendments are, in the opinion of the com- mittee, for the welfare of the town and they ask for your favorable consideration.
Having finished its work, your committee now ask for their discharge.
Respectfully submitted,
FREDERICK W. HILL, FRANCIS KEEFE, WILLIAM C. SCANNELL, MALCOLM E. DODGE, FREDERIC F. LOW, Chairman.

Voted: (Unanimously) That the report be received and the committee discharged.
