Report of Selectmen and Board of Public Welfare


The year 1938 will be a year long remembered in this section of New England because of the momentous day, Sep- tember 21 of that year when disaster in the form of flood and hurricane visited Wilbraham in its tour of New England.


The damage from the hurricane is impossible to describe with exactitude but it swept through Wilbraham leaving in its wake houses badly damaged, barns greatly damaged or destroyed, thousands of feet of timber laid flat, unharvested crops annihilated and hundreds of trees knocked down and impeding the highways. Most of the poll lines used for electric service and telephone service were completely destroyed and for eight days there was no electric service of any kind in the town, and from September 21st to October 27th inclusive there was no street lights in service. All telephone service with the exception of a few telephones close to the central office was completely lost for several days. Fortunately one of the tele- phones which remained in operation during the period was the one at the Selectmen's office.


The historic covered bridge which crossed the Chicopee River between North Wilbraham and Ludlow was surrounded by the rampant waters of the Chicopee River on all sides and was rendered unfit for further service.


The Collins Manufacturing Company suffered tremendous damage from the loss of many thousands dollars worth of mat- erial and finished products, and the loss of their canal and destruction of their yards and railroad tracks by the raging waters.


There was no service on the Boston and Albany Railroad for over two weeks which was by far the longest interruption of service by that utility since the original construction of their lines three quarters of a century ago.


It was necessary to evacuate many families from their homes in the sections which lay close to the river and for two nights these families were housed and fed in the Grace Union Parish House and in the homes of friends and relatives who lived in areas more removed from the river.


14


To the volunteers who gave their services night and day during this period and to those who worked all through the night clearing the highways the Board of Selectmen take this opportunity to express their sincere appreciation.


For four days it was impossible to traverse the Boston road from Springfield further east than North Wilbraham because of the fact that the river covered the highway, and in the face of these handicaps and lack of communication the town was maintained free from lawlessness and vandalism.


The main water line crossing the Chicopee River at North Wilbraham was destroyed by the flood and thanks to the co- operation of Mr. Charles L. Stevens, headmaster at Wilbraham Academy and the ingenuity of the Fire Department and the Superintendent of the Water Department, there was but slight cessation in the water service. A temporary feed line was constructed over the remains of the Collins Bridge as soon as the water subsided sufficiently, and it is the intention to have the permanent water line at this point attached to the new bridge which bridge is now being constructed at this location at the expense of the Commonwealth under the direction of the Department of Public Works.


The expenditure for relief increased appreciably during the year due to a large extent to the slackening of industry locally and in nearby places of employment. The net cost to the Town for Temporary Aid for 1938 was $13,129.88 as com- pared to a net cost for 1937 for the same purpose of $7,902.04.


We have also been informed that because the town's total valuation now execeds the maximum allowed for eligibility that the town will no longer obtain for school purposes the grant of State funds formerly credited under the provisions of part 2 of the School Fund law. In 1938 the credits so obtained equalled $10,625.73 and in 1939 it was expected that this pro- portion of school expenditures will have to be raised on the local tax levy.


The report of the audit made by the State Division of Accounts for the period ending December 31, 1938 lists the Surplus Revenue of the town as $47,139.07 of which $32,979.79 is listed cash on that date.


15


Wilbraham is still in remarkably good financial condition although the figures are not as encouraging as they were one year ago. It should be remembered that at the 1938 annual meeting we voted to use $30,000.00 of Surplus Revenue toward the alleviation of the 1938 tax rate. We will be unable this year to take such a large amount from that source, and an increase in the tax rate seems unavoidable for a multiplicity of reasons. It is also expected that the State and County taxes will be greater than 1938 and Wilbraham will have to assume the increased proportionate share of those taxes.


Whether or not the Legislature will pass legislation in the coming session which will provide other sources than real estate for obtaining relief monies to be spent by cities and towns is at this writing undetermined and we believe that locally we should prepare to meet these expenses in 1939 by the same basis of taxation as previously.


We call observation to the fact that once more the town has gone through the year without borrowing in anticipation of tax revenue.


NOT


Over four years have now passed that the town has bor- rowed money.


The Tax Collector's office has maintained its high standard of service in this regard and has kept the town in ready funds. However, because of reasons already cited in this report we believe that the possibility is not a remote one that the town will have to borrow in anticipation of revenue in 1939.


In conclusion the Selectmen urge the voters to use their usual prudence in voting appropriations at the annual meeting and to observe with regard the recommendations of the Finance Committee.


Respectfully and faithfully,


GEORGE E. MURPHY, Jr., WM. H. McGUIRE, Selectmen.

In Memoriam


Fred W. Green


On February 16, 1938 there passed to the Great Reward, Fred W. Green, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen.


Earlier in the month Mr. Green had attained his seventy- ninth birthday and very shortly after concluded a life time of service to his native town. Mr. Green first held public office as postmaster at Wilbraham in the first administration of President Grover Cleveland and at the time of his death was still serving his town as Chairman of the Board of Selectmen.


17


Probably no one in the entire history of Wilbraham has served as long as Mr. Green on the Board of Selectmen and very probably there has been no citizen of the Town in recent generations who was better known to residents in all sections of the town.


Beginning in the early 1880's and continuing until 1917 Mr. Green operated the stage line from Wilbraham to North Wilbraham, and during that time became known to the hund- reds of students who attended Wilbraham Academy during that period, and many of the alumnae and alumni of that institution were accustomed to inquire and look for Fred Green on all subsequent visits to Wilbraham.


Mr. Green began his service on the Board of Selectmen in 1896 and served consecutively thereon to 1917. He again became a member of the Board of Selectmen in 1924 and served from that date consecutively to the time of his death.


Mr. Green served the Town as tax collector for several years and also as a member of the Board of Assessors for many years.


For a considerable number of years Mr. Green was Chair- man of the Democratic Town Committee and for 47 years served as Treasurer of Newton Lodge, A. F. and A. M. of Wilbraham.


Mr. Green served Wilbraham long and faithfully and was always willing to hear all sides of all questions referred to him for decision.


His memory will linger long and brightly in the hearts of his family, his colleagues on the Board of Selectmen and all of the people of Wilbraham.
