Total excise tax levy

On account of the many changes in the Motor Vehicle Excise Tax laws during the year 1930, we would like to im- press on the taxpayers that no abatements of excise can be allowed unless applied for within six months after the time the car is sold or transferred, also that the minimum tax on any car registered of any value and for any period of time is $2.00. Furthermore a tax is due on every car registered by a person during the current year.

HAMILTON TOWN REPORT
REPORT OF EXAMINER
MR. THEODORE N. WADDELL Director of Accounts
Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston
Sir :
In accordance with your instructions. I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Hamilton for the fiscal year ending December 31. 1930, and report thereon as follows :
The financial transactions of the town. as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town. were examined and checked with the records of the town accountant.
The recorded receipts from licenses were compared with the selectmen's records of licenses granted.
The books and accounts in the accountant's office were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were compared with the town treasurer's books and with the records of the several departments collecting money for the town. The records of disbursements were checked with the treasury warrants and with the payments as shown by the treasurer's books. Approved vouchers and pay-rolls were examined and checked with the appropriation accounts. and the appropria- tions and transfers. as recorded on the ledger, were checked to the town clerk's records.
Attention is again called to the practice of paying prior years' bills from current years' revenue. This procedure does not tend to show the actual cost of maintaining the several functions and activities of the town during a given fiscal year, and, in some cases, serves as a means of preventing the fact

being known that had bills incurred in a given year not been carried over to the succeeding year, overdrafts would have occurred. To incur liabilities in excess of the amount pro- vided by the town for specific purposes is prohibited by Sec- tion 31, Chapter 44, General Laws, "except in cases of extreme emergency involving the health or safety of persons or property."
The ledger accounts were footed and analyzed, adjusting entries were made, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1930.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were exam- ined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were ana- lyzed and compared with the records in the several depart- ments in which money was collected for the town and with other sources from which money is paid into the town treasury. The payments were checked with the warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the accountant's ledger. The cash book was footed, the cash on hand was veri- fied by an actual count, and the bank balance was reconciled with a statement received from the bank of deposit.
Payments on account of debt and interest were proved with the amounts falling due and were compared with the can- celled securities and coupons on file.
The savings bank books representing the investments of the various trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were personally examined, the income and with- drawals being verified.
Appended to this report are tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash and summaries of the transactions and condition of the several trust funds.
The books and accounts of the collector of taxes were examined and checked in detail. The commitments of taxes

HAMILTON TOWN REPORT
and assessments were added and verified by a comparison with the warrants issued by the board of assessors for their collec- tion. The recorded collections were checked with the commit- ment books, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
The abatements were checked with the records of abate- ments granted by the board of assessors, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.
Verification notices were mailed to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
Tables showing summaries of the tax and assessment accounts are appended to this report.
The town clerk's records of dog and of sporting licenses issued were examined and checked in detail, the payments to the county and to the Division of Fisheries and Game, respec- tively, being verified.
The records of collections of the sealer of weights and measures were examined, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
The records of all other departments collecting money for the town were examined, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
The surety bonds of the various officials for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.
While engaged in making the audit, I received the co-opera- tion of the various departmental officials, for which, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted,
