REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE FINANCE AND ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Once again, we confront the ever-rising tide of town government ex- penses, stemming largely from the increase in educational requirements. We are not unique in this respect as practically every village, town, and city in this country faces similar circumstances. The Finance and Advisory Com- mittee submits the proposed budget for 1958. Your committee has reviewed in detail the operating expenses of all Town Deparments and has carefully screened any increases in the various individual budgets. We, of course, must attempt to maintain the tax rate at the most reasonable and practical level possible, and we also must give full consideration to the long-range objectives of the Town. Each of us has an inherent pride in our Town and, in turn, the Town is dependent on us to provide good government, sound fiscal policy. and a constructive measure of over-all advancement. We know you share our interest in constantly improving the basic standards of the Town in order to assure its stability, character, and attractiveness as a place to live.
The budget for 1958, as compiled by the Finance Committee, shows an increase of approximately $78,000 over the 1957 budget. The total for the present year is $713,562, as compared to $635,387 for last year, and the increase is due principally to the following :
1. Education
1957 $288,000
1958
$332,000
Increase $44,000
2. Debt Retirement and Int.

Total
$77,000
1. The increase in Education of $44,000, as compared to an increase of $53,000 last year, is accounted largely by an additional $27,000 in Ex- pense of Instruction. This category in particular represents nearly 70% of the total school budget which is occasioned by the highly competitive market existing in these times for teachers properly qualified to maintain our school system on a sound basis.
2. The $12,000 increase in Debt Retirement and Interest relates almost entirely to interest and amortization of principal on the bond issue financing the new Fire and Police Station.
3. The increase of $5,000 in the budget for Highways is caused largely by higher wages as a result of additional manpower requirements.
84
4. In the budget for Protection of Personal Property which shows an increase of roughly $5.000 over the preceding year, there is included the ex- pense of another regular police officer, thus affording the Town three full- time men. This seems a very advisable move and is consistent with the continuing growth of the community.
5. As to Welfare and Benefits, the increase in this category is the result of higher disability assistance.
6. The increase of $4,000 in Unclassified is due to the reserve fund. The total reserve fund will be similar to the preceding year, namely $8,000, but last year, the entire amount was transferred from excess overlay funds.
7. The Water Department increase of $3,000 arises from additional expenses in connection with the new pumping installations.

ACTION ON SPECIAL ARTICLES 1958 WARRANT
ARTICLE 5 : Chapter 90 Maintenance. Cost to the Town $2,000. Recommended.
ARTICLE 6 : Chapter 90 Highway Construction. Cost to the Town $3,500. Recommended.
This coupled with the similar amount appropriated last year will pro- vide sufficient funds to repair School Street which is an actively used thor- oughfare and in poor condition. The county will match our appropriation with $3,500 and the State will contribute $7,000 for this purpose.
ARTICLE 7: Cost of $2,500 for mosquito spraying. Recommended.
ARTICLE 8 : Cost of $750 for additional work, equipment and furnish- ings at the Fire and Police Station. Recommended.
85
ARTICLE 9: Cost of $1,500 for repairing and moving building in rear of Town Hall to another location. Recommended.
The purpose of the appropiration is to refit a useless building into a garage for the rubbish and garbage trucks.
ARTICLE 11: Cost of $1,000 for uniforms for members of the Fire De- partment. Recommended.
ARTICLE 13: Transfer of $4,000 from Overlay Reserve account to Finance Committee Reserve Fund. Recommended.
This amount was unexpended last year by the Finance Committee and therefore was returned to the Overlay Reserve Account. The transfer merely turns back the money to the Reserve Fund.
ARTICLE 14: Use of Free Cash in determining tax rate. Recommended.
This article permits the Assessors to draw on the Excess and Deficiency Fund to the extent of $20,000 to lower the 1958 tax rate.
ARTICLE 15: Cost of $5,000 for exploring additional water supply for the Town system. Recommended.
Our present facilities are inadequate and this appropriation will finance the first step in obtaining eventually an adequate supply of water for the town.
ARTICLE 16: Cost of approximately $80,000 for construction of a new Library. Not Recommended.
The Finance Committee recognizes the need and desirability of such a building. However, the Town has incurred substantial indebtedness, the present amortization and interest of which accounts for roughly $9.00 of our tax rate and furthermore we are faced immediately with another sizable bond issue to finance the new elementary school. Consequently, the Com- mittee feels the Town should not undertake an additional commitment of this amount at the present time and suggests deferment for consideration at some later date.
ARTICLES 18-19-20: To accept certain streets. Recommended-Pro- vided these streets comply with the by-laws in detail and are acceptable to the Selectmen and the Planning Board.
Respectfully submitted, LAWRENCE E. PELKEY CLARK S. SEARS CHARLES E. GRANT THOMAS G. STEVENSON JOHN C. GARLAND, Chairman

REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT
To the Citizens of Hamilton:
In accordance with the provisions of Chapter 41, of the General Laws, I submit herewith my report for the year ending December 31, 1957, showing the amount and source of all receipts, the amount of appro- priations and expenditures therefrom, purposes of expenditures, town indebtedness, condition of trust funds and a balance sheet.
Although the law provides that such statement shall be in accordance with classification prescribed by the director of accounts, I have further extended the classification of expenditures to make such information read- ily available to those who desire it. Any additional information will be gladly given to all residents of the town by calling at the office.
I extend my sincere appreciation to all for any assistance rendered me during the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANCIS H. WHIPPLE, Town Accountant.
