The Zoning and Building Board of Appeals have had a sizeable number of appeals most particularly of the Zoning Branch. The advent of our present Zoning law was May 2, 1946 and it is with a certain sense of gratification that a new law can be introduced and enforced, with no serious upsets to mar its future.
I anticipate results from the committee on change of by-laws and know that many things should be corrected, with the changing of the times and introductions of new methods and materials.
Interdepartmental co-operation is still with us, for which we are very thankful.
Respectfully submitted, PAUL H. MOSSMAN
Inspector of Buildings

VETERANS' SERVICE DEPARTMENT
REPORT OF DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS' SERVICES The Honorable Board of Selectmen Arlington, Mass.
Gentlemen :
This is the second annual report of the Department of Veterans' Services but it is the first report which covers a full calendar year, the Department having come into being on October 1, 1945.
The Department office has been about the busiest of the Town offices as nearly all of those released from the armed forces have called at least once to procure some of the ser- vices furnished by the Department. Many veterans and their relatives have made as many as five and some have made twenty or more calls. The telephone is ringing most of the time. Veterans employed in Arlington but living else- where and veterans from nearby towns took advantage of the good service provided by Arlington.
In the course of the year approximately 4100 Arlington service men and women were released from the service and returned to their homes here. A number of others from all parts of the United States who had married Arlington ser- vice people or Arlington girls came to Arlington to live. A tabulation of the services rendered to all of them and their relatives is listed below:
Applications for Mass. Soldiers' Bonus furnished .... 4,200
Inquiries made for the benefit of Bonus applicants .. 205
Cases in which evidence of domicile in Mass. in the
form of sworn statements was procured for Bonus applicants 32

To handle all of the above business there was a staff composed of the Director, one Investigator, one regular Junior Clerk and Stenographer and, up to September 1st, a provisional Junior Clerk. The last named resigned, effective September 1st to accept a better paying position and no one was appointed to take her place.
Acting under the provisions of Section 5, Chapter 723 of the Acts of the Legislature of 1945, the Selectmen ap- pointed to the Advisory Board of the Department of Vet- erans' Services the following outstanding citizens of Arling- ton :
Ernest W. Davis, (Moderator of the Town Meeting), 6 Chap- man St., Arlington
Dr. Volta R. Hall, 163 Hillside Avenue, Arlington Lawrence P. Bliss, 9 Churchill Avenue, Arlington Albert H. Perkins, 7 Monadnock Road, Arlington Clarence H. Marsh, 27 Windsor Street, Arlington William J. Doyle, 73 Egerton Road, Arlington Rev. John Nicol Mark, 15 Lombard Road, Arlington Miss Nora A. Brown, Symmes Hospital, Arlington Clifford R.

VETERANS' SERVICE DEPARTMENT
Francis Keefe, Attorney, 622 Massachusetts Ave., Arlington Mrs. Robert W. Murphy, 92 Churchill Avenue, Arlington Walter T. Chamberlain, 699 Massachusetts Ave., Arlington
This body acting collectively in meeting assembled or individually whenever called upon, has been of very great assistance to the Director and has rendered many services, gratuitously, to the veterans and their relatives. The advice of Mr. M. Norcross Stratton and Mr. Clifford Hall in vo- cational and school matters has been invaluable. At the request of the Director, Miss Ellen Fitzpatrick, Acting Di- rector of the Guidance Department, Senior High School, has interviewed and advised at least five hundred veterans as to courses of study to pursue, and recommended the schools and colleges where the desired courses could be pursued to the best advantage, as to credits to be made up, as to evalu- ation of schooling had in the service and as to other mat- ters related to education. She has also given aptitude tests to many veterans who were undecided about their future. Mr. Clifford Hall and Miss Fitzpatrick have also made a great contribution to the rehabilitation and reorientation of veterans by providing what is rated as the best Regional High School or, Veterans Education Center, in Massachu- setts. Mr. Francis Keefe has been called upon for advice about evictions and other legal matters many, many times and has always been generous with his time and his excel- lent advice. The same applies to Mr. Walter Chamberlain of the Arlington Co-operative Bank, who probably has had more to do with the guidance and advising of veterans in matters pertaining to real estate than any other man in Arlington. Mr. Ernest W. Davis, in industrial matters, em- ployment, etc., Dr. Volta R. Hall in medical matters and all of the other members in their particular spheres have been very helpful to the veteran and to this office. Each has been eager to help and has been available at all times. A note of sadness was injected into the affairs of the Advisory Board by reason of the sudden death of William J. Doyle in March, 1946. Mr. Doyle was a very able and well balanced labor leader who was greatly interested in apprentice training for
338
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
the younger veterans. He has been missed by all of his associates.
On or about April 1, 1946, Mr. Joseph F. Manley, Con- tact Representative of the U. S. Veterans' Administration, was assigned to Arlington to bring to the veterans and their relatives living in Arlington, Winchester, Lexington and parts of Medford, the services of the Veterans' Administra- tion. He was furnished with a desk in the Department of Veterans' Services and given whatever assistance the office had to offer. Since then Mr. Manley has made a record for perfect service. Being a law student he has proven to be a keen student of all laws pertaining to veterans. He has the knack of speaking clearly and to the point. The veterans are aware of the fact that clear and direct answers to their inquiries and quick solutions of their problems can be ob- tained from him. His office days in Arlington are Tuesday and Thursday of each week. He has had approximately 1500 contacts with veterans and their relatives since April 1, 1946.
In addition to the usual work of the office, the Depart- . ment staff participated in the survey of the housing needs of Arlingtons veterans conducted by the Arlington Com- mittee on Veterans' Housing in May, 1946, and, with the aid of four members of the Veterans' of Foreign Wars Auxiliary and twelve Senior High School students, prepared, mimeographed, addressed, stamped and mailed 3200 ques- tionnaires all within four days of the date the committee voted to conduct such a survey. The office staff, without help, tabulated the answers to the questions on the returned questionnaires for the benefit of the Housing Committee, which tabulation follows :

By reason of the enactment of Chapter 584, Acts of 1946, the Soldiers' Relief Law of the past, Chapter 115, General Laws, has been repealed and a new Chapter 115 substituted therefor, effective January 1, 1947. Under the new law, Soldiers' Relief, State Aid and Military Aid are combined under one form of relief called Veterans' Benefits. In the cases of needy veterans and their dependents who are legally settled in Arlington the payments to the needy are made in Arlington but one half of the cost is reimbursed to the Town by the State. In the cases of needy veterans residing in Arlington who have no legal settlement in the Commonwealth but have had three consecutive years of residence within the Commonwealth immediately prior to the date of application, the State reimburses the Town for the full amount of the aid given. Under this new law it is necessary for the Department of Veterans' Services of Arl- ington to receive authorization from the State Commis- sioner of Veterans' Services for payment of Veterans' Benefits in order that reimbursement may be obtained. It is also provided that Burial Aid (which does not come under the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans' Services) disbursements shall be reimbursed by the State in half rather than in full as heretofore. A recommendation has been made to the Board of Selectmen that the office and duties of the Burial Agent be combined with those of the Department of Veterans' Services.
I wish to conclude by acknowledging gratefully the help and co-operation given by the Board of Selectmen, the Secretary of the Board, Mr. James J. Golden, Jr., the staffs of the several departments of the Town government and the faithful service of the members of the Departmnet of Vet- erans' Services.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES R. ARMOUR,
Director.
