As indicated above, the severest increase in budget is neces- sitated by need for additional school facilities. The growth in school population in recent years has been somewhat dramatic in the Town of Wilbraham and this has necessitated recurring building programs of substantial proportions. In view of the large amounts involved in the local school budget and Wilbra- ham's share in the regional school budget, the Finance Committee would nevertheless commend the evident concern and care on the part of the school committees in administration of these sums.
In its 1961 report the Finance Committee recommended em- ployment of a qualified accountant and installation of an approved accounting system as recommended by state fiscal authorities. Both of these recommendations have been adopted and again the Committee would commend the work already accomplished and the manner of its performance by Mr. Joseph Reilly who was appointed accountant. His preparation and presentation of fiscal reports for use of the Committee in preparation of the 1963 budget has been of inestimable value.
Also recommended in the past was appointment by the Select- men of a Personnel Study Committee. The recommendations of the Personnel Study Committee relative to job classifications and salary and wage rates has done much to assist the Finance Com- mittee in making certain of equitable salary and wage considera- tion for Town employees.
The Finance Committee is continuing its study and considera- tion of adoption of a segregated budget in the form recommended by state fiscal authorities. During the past year this subject has been considered with the several department heads. While no specific action relative to a segregated budget is recommended in connection with the 1963 budget it is to be hoped that in the future the Committee and all department heads may reach agree' ment as to the expediency of this form of budgeting.
The purpose which a sizeable Stabilization Fund has served in recent years and will again serve in connection with the further school building program demonstrates the wisdom and expediency of the policy which the Town has pursued in the development of such Stabilization Fund. Without this method of prefunding of capital expenditures the necessity of extensive bonded indebted- ness would have been severe in recent years. Unquestionably, the Town should continue to maintain a sizeable Stabilization Fund in contemplation of necessary capital expenditures in the future.
112
Because of proposed utilization of $183,000 from the Stabiliza- tion Fund this year for the new school, the Finance Committee is recommending further contribution to the Fund this year in the amount of $75,000.
The substantial rate of increase annually in town expenditures due to growth of the Town emphasizes the need for continued prudence on the part of those whose responsibilities include con- sideration of such expenditures. Care must be exercised in the future determination of expenditures which will prove essential to preservation and further development of services and facilities characteristic of Wilbraham and at the same time preclude an increasing cost of Town administration which could become an intolerable burden to its taxpayers. To this end the present and future Finance Committees must be so dedicated.

Auditor's Report
I have examined the financial statements of the Town of Wil- braham, discussed the system of internal control, examined the accounting records on a selective basis, and conducted a limited cash audit. I believe that all cash collected has been properly recorded and deposited, that disbursements are supported by proper vouchers, and that the Treasurer's cash balance as of December 31, 1962 is correct.
