POLICE DEPARTMENT


The Police Department consists of the Chief of Police, eight regular patrolmen and a number of special officers.


During the year there have been 198 arrests, 94 for intoxi- cation and 104 for all other offenses, 263 people were given lodgings.


The Police Signal System which has been in use for a number of years has practically outlived its usefulness and should be replaced immediately by a modern system. During the past year the expense of maintenance increased materially, and only at rare intervals was the whole system in running order.

Report of the City Attorney


To the Honorable City Council :


I herewith submit my report as City Attorney for the year ending December 31, 1921.


At the commencement of my term of office, I completed, with the assistance of various City Officials, the revision of the City Ordinances. These revised Ordinances, which were subse- quently adopted, I believe have proven satisfactory and cover all matters that should properly be regulated by the City.


During the month of May the Rutland Railway Light & Power Company sought to discontinue a part of its service on the South Belt Line. Many protests against this change in service were received by the City Attorney, and through the efforts of various interested parties and myself the Company consented to continue the old service.


In May of this year the City Attorney, acting with the Committee appointed by the Board of Aldermen for that pur- pose, brought a petition before the Public Service Commission for the purpose of securing, if possible, a reduction in the rates charged for gas by the Rutland Railway, Light & Power Com- pany. Hearings were begun on this petition in July, and further hearings were held in August, October, November, and finally completed in the early part of January of this year. A large amount of research and preparation was necessary in order to present this matter properly before the Commission, and on account of conditions over which the counsel for the City had no control, the hearings were postponed from time to time over the period indicated, so that more time was consumed in getting in the evidence than was anticipated. Briefs are now being prepared for use by the Commission and it is expected that a decision will be rendered sometime within the next month or


118


ANNUAL REPORT


six weeks. In the preparation and hearing of the case the City Attorney had the valuable assistance of Attorney Walter S. Fenton, Mr. A. B. S. Little, Gas Engineer for the City of New York, and Mr. T. W. Earle, an Engineer of this city. We feel that a strong case was presented to the Commission by the petitioners, and that a substantial reduction should result to the consumers of gas in the City by reason of this proceeding.


By direction of the City Council a proceeding was brought in the name of certain residents on Burnham Avenue, to procure an injunction against the operation of a public garage by Wm. Gosselin. Hearing was held on a temporary injunction, but after some evidence was introduced and it appeared that some of the things causing the most serious complaints had been dis- continued, the Court indicated that the matter should be held open with the right on the part of the petitioners to apply for further relief in case the offensive practices were resumed.


The City Attorney has assisted the Committee appointed to obtain water rights on the North Branch of Cold River and during the year some essential water rights have been acquired without the expense of condemnation proceedings.


During the year a great many insane paupers have been removed to the Brattleboro Retreat for treatment, through the efforts of the City Attorney and the Overseer of the Poor, and the City thereby relieved from liability for their support and care.


The City Attorney has devoted a considerable amount of time in assisting the Committee appointed to investigate the matter of widening Grove Street and in connection with this matter has prepared many options and agreements with various property owners whose rights will be affected if the project is carried through.


119


CITY OF RUTLAND


Throughout the year the City Attorney has been frequently called upon to advise and assist various Committees and officers of the city, and it has always been a pleasure and a privilege to render such assistance as was in his power.


Respectfully submitted, CLAYTON H. KINNEY, City Attorney.

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE HEALTH OFFICER


During the past year the following communicable diseases have been reported for the City of Rutland: Chicken-pox, 94; diphtheria, 11 ; measles, 96; influenza, 4; scarlet fever, 9; small- pox, 18; typhoid fever, 3; German measles, 3; mumps, 3; pneumonia, 5; whooping-cough, 186.


The possibilities of small-pox shows us that we cannot neg- lect vaccination. While many were vaccinated last year, many have been born since which need protection. The committee appointed for the purpose of investigation of vaccination, by the American Public Health Association, reported to the recent meeting in New York that all children should be vaccinated before a year old, best about the age of 6 months. In these cases the chances of infection is less and the "take" less severe. Children should be vaccinated again about 12 years of age, to be sure they are still immune. If not immune the "take" will be mild.


The working out of the present health system presents some difficulties in handling the milk question. The health officer, being on a salary, is not allowed to use the fees for milk licenses. Unless he has money he cannot buy samples of milk and pay express to the laboratory. In some districts the towns have waived all milk license fees, and allowed the health officer to buy the samples from the town funds. So long as there is a state law providing for the purchase of milk samples from license fees, District No. 7 has not seen fit to use town or city money for that purpose. To comply with both requirements, the health officer has received the applications, inspected the dairies, collected the fees, and turned them over to one of the members of the local Board of Health, who uses it to buy samples and pay express. This has given one of the members of the local Board of Health extra work, but he has been obliging enough to do it for the city and health officer.


131


CITY OF RUTLAND


Most of the samples of milk submitted have complied with the state requirements. Two samples were reported as having added water and they are now in the hands of the State's Attorney, to determine whether the circumstances warrant prose- cution. Some samples contained visible dirt. In such cases, the producer has had his attention called to the matter, asking him to check up on his methods, and a second sample has usually resulted in clean milk.


Some of the producers seem to think that it is the duty of the health officer to ask them for the license fee. They should apply for license to sell milk, as they would for an automobile license, and failure to do so makes a dealer liable to prosecution.


In examining milk reports one cannot help noticing that all samples tend to show only the minimum requirements for food products contained. This is the natural law of economics, as a producer cannot sell milk containing 4.5% butter fat for the price which 2.25% sells for. The more food products a quart of milk contains, the more it is worth to the consumer. He gets more for his money. The public should recognize this, and a dealer who will guarantee a greater per cent of butter fat and solids should receive proportionately more for his milk. Unless this is done no one in Rutland will be able, after a little, to buy milk with more than 3.25% butter fat and 11.75% total solids, which is not a very high grade of milk from a food stand- point. It is as much to the advantage of the consumer to pay the farmer on the basis of food value in milk, as it is for the producer.


The water supply is receiving careful attention. The State Chemist has made at least two visits of inspection to the plant and the State Engineer has gone over the water-shed with the Water Commissioner and Health Officer. Delicate, but simple tests have been devised to show that proper amounts of chemical are added to sterilize the water at the intake, while they are also applied at the reservoir to keep the amount low enougli so that no free chemical is left in the water going to the homes.


132


ANNUAL REPORT


These tests are made daily. Daily samples are submitted to the laboratory for bacterial count. The health officer believes Rutland has a safe water supply.


Respectfully submitted,


BERN D. COLBY, M. D., Health Officer, District No. 7.
