REPORT OF THE ROAD COMMISSIONERS AND SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS


Board of Selectmen, Tewksbury, Mass.


Gentlemen:


The following is our report for the year ending Decembed 31, 1943.


CHAPTER 81, AND GENERAL HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE.


The usual highway maintenance was carried out this year, which included the use of gravel, tar, pea stone, pea gravel and patch on our various streets and those that come under our Chapter 81 Contract.


This year under our Chapter 81 Contract, our Department re- ceived $1600. less from the State than in previous years.


The sidewalk from St. William's Church to the corner of Chandler Street, which was started the latter part of 1942, has been completed. It has been properly graded and approximately '20.8 tons of bituminous concrete was applied in smoothing the surface.


A new sidewalk railing was erected on Andover Street, from the corner of Trull Street to Hood Road. This new pipe railing is a great improvement over the old one that was of iron. On Mill Street, near the bridge, the old guard rail has been replaced. New cedar posts were used and also about 100 feet of mesh wire. The bridge rail on Shawsheen Street was also repaired. Cedar posts were used here also, and a new plank fence was constructed.


Last year we applied a new surface treatment, which consisted of tar and pea gravel, on Whipple Road. We extended this construc- tion from the residence of Mr. Cluff to the Lowell Line, this year. This covers a distance of approximately 5000 feet. About 468 tons of pea gravel was used. This street is now in excellent condition.


Catch Basins have been installed on the following streets this year:

.


Due to the increase of all living expenses, we deemed it necessary to increase the salaries of our men again this year. Therefore, begin- ning July 15, our employees received an increase of five cents per hour, and they were also put on a straight-time basis. The increase from that date to December 31 amounted to $700.


The appropriation voted on and granted our department for the year 1943 was $2000 less than we estimated. To avoid closing our department for the month of December, we were obliged to ask the Finance Board for an additional sum of $1200 to cover our labor ex- penses for the remainder of the year. This request was granted and our department appreciated the courtesy extended by the Finance Board.


Approximately $1000 of the sum received was used, and the balance was returned to the Town Treasury.


This fall our men were released to various farmers, not only lo- cally but also out of town, to help out during their harvesting. This arrangement proved most satisfactory in helping to solve their labor shortage and our money shortage. These men earned approximately $1600 from this source. We also turned back into the Town Treasury about $375 which was the amount received for the outside rental of our Highway Equipment.


There has been some change in the personnel of our department this year. We regret the loss of one of our highly valued employees, Mr. Homer Darby. Mr. Darby has been employed by the Highway Department for a great many years and is a man that could be called upon at any time and always willingly responded. He has accepted a position at the Tewksbury High School, and we know that they will find him most efficient.


Two of our other employees have been called into the service, namely, Lincoln Gerrish and Francis Brown. The best of luck is extended to them by this department.


It is greatly regretted by the employees of the Highway Depart- ment that one of the members of the Board of Road Commissioners, Mr. Louis Berube, is still hospitalized. Though in poor health Mr. Berube takes keen interest in all matters pertaining to this depart- ment.


The following tables give the amount of material used on the various street during the past year. Tar shown delivered to the Town Yard was used in mixing patch.

CHAPTER 90 MAINTENANCE


The usual maintenance of Chapter 90 Highways was carried out again this year under the provisions of the contract. All of our Chapter 90 Streets are in excellent condition.


We continued the use of a new surface treatment that was recom- mended to us by the State last year on our Chapter 90 Streets. This treatment consists of an application of tar and pea gravel which is mixed and leveled by a power grader. Pea Stone is applied as a binder and a thorough rolling completes the construction.


We used this surface treatment on Andover Street, extending about 1500 feet from the Lowell Line towards North Tewksbury. Approxi- mately 326 tons of Pea Gravel and 465 tons of Pea Stone was used on this street. The entire length of Salem Road received this applica- tion. This covers a distance of about 2500 feet and 160 tons of Pea Gravel and 21 tons of Pea Stone was used. 231 tons of Pea Gravel was applied on Billerica Road from the corner of Glendale Avenue to the Lowell Line. East Street was also treated likewise from the main highway to the corner of North Street. This new type of road construction is proving most satisfactory.


For a financial report of this department, we refer you to the Auditor's report of Highway Expenditures.


In closing this report, our appreciation and thanks are extended to our Board of Selectmen, Finance Committee, State and County Offi- cials and Engineers, for their cooperation and untiring assistance.


Respectfully yours,


THOMAS P. SAWYER, CHESTER M. ROPER, LOUIS .O. BERUBE,


Road Commissioners of Tewksbury.


RICHARD F. O'NEILL,


Superintendent of Streets.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE BUREAU OF OLD AGE ASSISTANCE AID TO DEPENDENT CHILDREN


General Relief: Expenses in this catagory of relief have been lowest since pre-depression days, only 75% of the appropriation was expended. The employment picture has been most favorable, and work has been available for all types of skill.


The case load has consisted of elderly unemployable persons and large families where the head of the household has been unable to work for stated periods of time owing to sickness not covered by in- surance payments. As all living costs have increased, the assistance granted to this later type of case is necessarily high.


Again this year, no assistance has been granted to any family with an employable head of the house.


Based on this year's expenditures, it is believed that an appro- priation of $6000 should be sufficient to meet the needs of General Relief for 1944.


The following is a recapitulation of the families and persons represented, aided by the Welfare Department for the year 1943:


Families Persons


Town settled cases aided in Tewksbury


14

Town settled cases aided by other cities, towns.

Old Age Assistance: As a result of enactment of Chapter 489 of the Acts of 1943, certain changes were made in the Old Age Assistance law, greatly liberalizing this form of assistance. It is now required that assistance be granted on a budgetary basis as established by the State Department the minimum amounts as previously set out in 1942 have been retained, but in most cases the budgetary standard far


108


exceeds the minimum, and of course it is the budget amount that must be granted, if we are to expect State and Federal reimbursement.


Steps have been taken by the Department to cause self-supporting children to contribute, according to an established scale, to the support of their dependent parents, and in general the response from children has been satisfactory.


Although an appropriation of $16,000 was ample for 1943, owing to increased payments in excess of Federal participation, an appropria- tion of $18,500 appears to be necessary for 1944. This is matched in part by Federal funds, which are a, current asset, and ultimately by State Department reimbursements which become a general receipt.


An average of 67 cases were aided during the year 1943.


Aid to Dependent Children: There are 10 families representing 28 persons who are receiving this type of assistance. As this program meets the need of children of school age, the present increased employ- ment opportunities does not affect the situation to any great extent, other than after school or summer work that the children may obtain. It is believed that expenses for 1944 will remain about the same and that an appropriation of $4500 will be sufficient.


The report of expenditures for the three departments will be found in the Auditor's Report. Reimbursements received are recorded in the Treasurer's Report.


Respectfully submitted,


EDWARD J. SULLIVAN, Chairman IRVING F. FRENCH BERNARD H. GREENE

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CIVILIAN DEFENSE


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


The Report Center at the Tewksbury State Infirmary has been kept manned 24 hours per day throughout the year. At this time I wish to extend my thanks to the telephone operators on the Hospital switchboard, especially to Miss Cronin and Mrs. Shepcott for their efficient cooperation.


At the present time it seems likely that we will have to maintain the Center for this year only. The set-up there is ideal and I believe that we should continue there until such time as the need as determined by the Army ceases to exist.


For the current year I believe an appropriation of $500 would be ample. This would provide for the maintenance of the telephone service and will leave approximately $200 to meet any at present, un- forseen expense which may occur.


The details of our expenditures for 1943, appear in the Auditor's Report. We have incurred very few expenses and at present can see no reason why we should expend much more money the coming year.


Respectfully submitted,


EVERETT H. KING,


Chairman.

REPORT OF HEALTH DEPARTMENT


Chairman Greene and Members of the Board of Health of the Town of Tewksbury:


Your agent has a brief and favorable report. There have been very few serious cases of contagious disease. The diphtheria immuni- zation clinic has been carried out, as in past years, but has resolved itself into pre-school rather than school children. This is because such a large percentage of the school's pupils have been previously cared for. The State Health Department asked us to cooperate with them in the examination of the infants and have appointed a competant Pediatrician to meet with the mothers and babies for examination and advice. This work is under the supervision of the Board of Health Nurse, Miss Haines and mothers may contact her for appoint- ments. During the past year we have had more dog bite cases than for many years; but it has happened that there have been no human contacts with rabid dogs. We still have two tuberculosis suf- ferers in the State sanitarium receiving care, which the health depart- ment is required to give and very happy to cooperate in this care and their recovery. Your agent advises people of the town to be unusually careful of slight illnesses and take early precautions as the virus types of disease which are unusually stubborn, when well established are depleting in their results. Again along this iine medical care is hard to obtain with the war-time shortage.

REPORT OF TREE WARDEN


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen:


As Tree Warden, I submit the following:


Owing to the scarcity of labor, was unable to cut the brush from wall to wall as usual. All straight aways were cut with horse drawn mower and the most dangerous curves cut by hand. Trees considered dangerous have been removed as far as possible but many trees need pruning badly.


Ninety-six Rock Maple trees have been planted on the following streets-James (8), Helvetia (19); Chandler (9); Lee (4); East (12); Marshall (9); New England Power Road (29); Salem Road (4) and North (2). Several trees were killed by a wilt disease during the summer drought after the heavy rains at planting time.


About 200 reflector buttons were installed in trees close to the traveled way.


This department will show quite a large balance unexpended owing to scarcity of labor mentioned above. If help was available, this department should have a larger appropriation but owing to prevailing labor conditions, I would suggest the same amount as last year.


Yours respectfully,


HARRIS M. BRIGGS,


Tree Warden.


114


REPORT OF THE MOTH SUPERINTENDENT


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen:


As agent for the suppression of Gypsy Brown Tail-Tent Cater- pillar and Elm tree Beetle, I submit the following:


There is marked decrease in Gypsy and Brown Tail Moths. A check of woodlands is now under way to locate bad infestations which are booked for early summer spraying. The Tent Caterpillar was very troublesome and a special early spraying will be done.


The Elm Tree Beetle was also very plentiful but spraying held them in check and not an Elm was defoliated.


I would recommend the appropriation as of last year.


I wish to thank the Highway Dept. for the help given me during the spraying season.


Yours respectfully,


HARRIS M. BRIGGS,


Moth Superintendent.


115


REPORT OF THE PARK COMMISSIONERS


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: Gentlemen:


As Park Commissioners, we submit the following:


The commons were raked, fertilizer applied and grass mowed. Since the starting of war the flag has been raised and lowered each day except in storms. Several cords of cow dressing should be ap- plied to the lawns this year. The flag pole should be painted and bandstand repaired. Also, several new flags should be bought.


We suggest an appropriation of $300.00.


Yours respectfully,


THOMAS C. McAUSLAND, WALTER ROBERTS, HARRIS M. BRIGGS, Park Commissioners.


REPORT OF HONOR ROLL COMMITTEE


The sum of $150.00 was appropriated at our last annual town meeting to provide a suitable memorial and honor roll for the men and women of Tewksbury who served in the armed forces in this war.


As this sum was far too small to purchase and erect a fitting honor- roll, we asked for public subscriptions, and the response was very gratifying. We received and turned over to the town treasurer the sum of $644.71, which added to the appropriation made a total of $794.71. With this amount, we bought a service flag for $35.00; loose leaf index books for permanent records of enlisted persons, $5.90 and paid $450.00 for the honor roll delivered at the hall. Each name strip costs sixty cents, and as new names are added, the list can be kept in alphabetical order at all times. We hope the citizens of Tewksbury will like our selection, and we wish to express our thanks to all who donated for this memorial, and to all those who in any way aided us in the selection and dedication of our honor roll. We hope to plant some permanent evergreens around it in the spring, also some kind of flag- stone walk or semi-circle at the approach from the street.
