Sharply higher school costs and, to a lesser extent, a demand for new improvements forced the tax rate up $4.50. Nevertheless,;: the town's financial condition remained strong.

A summary of the essential features atures of the Audit 'Report by the State's Division of -t Accounts for the period from July 6,'1950 to February S, 1952 is as follows: All receipts, disbursements, and records of all departments were checked in detail and found to be correct and in' good order: Particular mention was made of "the accurate manner in which the work of the several ` departments has been performed" and "the efficient work of the Town Collector."

The Ten Point River Pollution Program which accomplished this important improvement is the first of its kind ever attempted by a municipality. Industrial smoke stacks continued to emit obnoxious odors and fly ash into the air. But it is likely that the Town's new Air Pollution Program adopted in July will clear this situation up before another summer arrives. 7,, 4 LL+tT -rIS'!Qv n 4 4:. 4 •INn. vT; n�3 �fi•�6-ii6i r`it Iii � 4 � � � �4 t :'i t ;t :5`3 �?i),IiS �4 t i •4• � y ...a t : 5 r t � � 4(S fit 'hr� 3I i {1 g (��•� Pr n �� L a'1 4 t ('4 :.� r F� � r 4l 4 i lY N•j �' 3 ti: ;� t �' � h4rc�roa 6 E r � 'i9 �� • �6� I :rs 4 � L 9 I e`.v.
