Everett e 7 Annual Report of the Town Manager in accordance with Sect. 20 (e) of the Town Charter The year 1930 has been another year of progress along per- ent lines in the construction program of our town. The constant advice and valued counsel of the Selectmen, is ,with gratefully ,acknowledged, as is the co-operation of de- ment heads outside of the Manager's province. To my loyal fs, 'superintendents and co-workers, I record my appreciation their continued loyalty, interest and unfailing courtesy. )ugh this loyal co-operation, I have been ,able to carry out the ;ram as directed by the Selectmen, and obtain the greatest re - for the funds expended. The past year has been a very difficult one from a labor cost 7point, as the Town records will show that we exceeded our ;et allowances on this cost, in some cases to the actual point etarding our permanent construction program. In our Public ks- Departments, the excess labor costs caused by the general ness depression, made it imperative that we reduce the amount ended for highway binding material approximately 50%, which esents the difference between approximately ten miles of tar gravel construction, down to six miles of this work. This, of ,se, was obligatory on our part, to relieve the general unem- ment conditions and the suffering caused by that condition. The reports of the various departments under -my jurisdiction be found in another section of the town report, the roster of L being unchanged over one year ago.

Year To allow in the budget for the elimination of two dead ends L - our water system. Those most needed are: (a) West and Walnut Street—approximately twelve hundred (1200') feet. (b) Church Street to Park Street, tying in two (2) dead ends and forming another circuit to the lower end of the town when the dead ends on East and Park Streets are later tied to-gether. A tar and gravel, surface should be put on Winter and Maple reets to the Easton line, as this will come within eight hundred 00) feet of connecting with the new State Highway from Sharon Easton. The Town of Easton authorities have agreed to build e short section to tie, this in. )`. Williams and Pine Streets should receive your consideration r a tar and gravel surface as those roads are difficult to maintain - good gravel surfaces. :) The appropriation for street lighting should be increased to )proximate -cost, - thereby allowing us to consider a reduction in rht rates, by increasing the cash discount. E). Town Hall needs a coat of paint on the out -side. This should done if possible in 1931. ). Some further thought must be given to the sewerage and ,nitary conditions of the town in the near future. This is inserted accordance with the State Board of Health report �on our sani- ry conditions. '). The Board should give consideration to the several processes ►w on the market for the flushing of our water mains, this cost 16 would probably be in the first application, about $2500.00, but fu- ture applications would cost much less. All rust and dirt can be removed by chemicals, now approved by the State Department of Public Health. This work is now carried out in many cities and towns.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION Shall an amendment to the constitution relative to the appor- tionment of senatorial, representative and councillor districts, fur- ther described as follows: The proposed amendment of the Constitution provides for the annulment of Article XXI of the Articles of Amendments of the Constitution and the substitution therefor of a new Article XXI; and for the annulment of Article XXII of the Articles of Amend- ment of the Constitution and- the substitution therefor of a new Article XXII. The proposed amendment embodies in substance the following changes in and additions to said Article XXI and XXII: 1. In proposed Article XXI, towns of twelve thousand inhab- itants or more may be divided in forming representative districts. No precincts, however, in such towns may be divided. In .taking the census the special enumeration of legal voters shall specify the number residing in .each precinct of such towns. Under existing Amendment XXI no town may be divided, and no specification of the number of voters in a precinct is required. 2. The division of a county into representative districts and the apportionment of representatives to districts therein is to be made by "The county commissioners or other body acting as such or, in lieu thereof, such board of.special commissioners in each coun- ty as may for that purpose be provided by law . . . " Under Article XXI as it now stands the division and apportionment is made by "The mayor and aldermen of the city of Boston, the county commis-' sioners of other counties than Suffolk, or in lieu of the mayor and 57 ren of the city of Boston, or of the county commissioners in L county other than Suffolk, such board of special commissioners ach county, to be elected by the people of the county, or of the Is therein, as may for that purpose be provided by law . . . " time for assembling of such commissioners, board or body for purpose of making such division and apportionment is also lged, from the first Tuesday of August next after each assign - t by the Legislature of the number of representatives to each ity, to a time within thirty days after certification by the Ttary of the Commonwealth to such commissioners, board or T„ of the number so assigned, or within such other period as General Court may by law provide. 3. Under the proposed Articles, each special enumeration shall he basis for determining the districts, senatorial, representative councillor, for the ten-year period beginning in the fourth zary following said special enumeration and the present division listricts is to remain in effect until January 1939. Under the ting amendments the ten-year period is the period between the ng of each census. (Thus, the next redivision based upon the ; census in 1935 would, under the proposed Articles, affect ie elected in 1938 to hold office beginning in January, 1939, ead of affecting those elected in 1936 to hold office beginning in xary, 1937. Under existing amendments representation of ly created districts begins in January the second year after L ten-year census, whereas under the proposed article it would n in January of the fourth year thereafter.) The number of `esentatives (240), senators (40), and councillors (8) is not 4. The Legislature may limit the time within which a division representative, councillor or senatorial districts may be ques- ned by judicial proceedings. The existing amendments contain provision that itself limits or authorizes the Legislature to dt such time.

STANWOOD AND SONS, INC. (Signed By) Chas. E. Stanwood CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT 115 Public Library Trustees Mr. Harold H. Everett, Town Manager, ono the Board of Selectmen, Gentlemen: There is no unemployment, nor business depression at the Public Library. The year 1930 was the busiest yet. The trustees ti have been obliged to increase the library force by hiring helpers by the hour, giving the. equivalent time of an extra assistant at less expense. Plain figures will tell the story most quickly. The total circulation for 1930 was 62,718, which is 3,224 MORE than `l that in 1929. Possibly the industrial situation may have some- ' thing to do with the increase. Some other libraries have had the same experience and credit it to the fact that people have had more time to read and less money to spend on other forms of r` amusement. Whatever the cause it is gratifying to have the lib- [ s rary of increasing service to the town. There have been 241 new 'f registrations, 129 adults, 112 children. The librarians have passed out 55,478 books from the desk and have packed 7240 books for -=' East and West Mansfield, and the schools. East Mansfield has cir- culated 925 books, nearly two thirds of them to adults; West Mans- field's circulation was 2002, more than two thirds of them to children. Thus eachsection ministers to its own demands. Great credit is due to both Mrs. Burt and Mrs. Kennedy. Mrs. Kennedy's solution to the summer problem is worthy of note. The West Mansfield deposit is kept in the John Berry School. During the summer vacationthedeposit has no home. Rather than deprive her borrowers of books Mrs. Kennedy packed her books into an automobile and went from house to house. The "book wagon" has been tried out before, notably on the Cape, but this was Mansfield's first venture in the field, and it proved successful. The number of :. books issued to the schools was 4,219, the largest ever. Besides serving the large number of readers of English, some of the foreign population has been served with a limited amount rr of reading by accepting the State's traveling libraries of books in - Italian, Polish and Swedish. The Italian books went out 71 times, the Swedish 51, and the Polish 20. The demand for non-fiction not available in our library has been met by the use of the Inter -Library Loan. Ninety-four books were supplied in that way. Pn two instances we were able to help libraries smaller than our own. 116 During the year there have been several exhibits, the most interesting and most important were the new books for "Children's Book Week" in November and the December exhibit of 53 dolls dressed in the National costumes of foreign countries. The doll exhibit was sponsored by the New Century Club and the State Federation of Women's Clubs. Among the other exhibits were pic- tures sent out by the Woman's Educational Association of Boston. Miss Wood has started a permanent collection of pictures for the library. At present the collection numbers 1200 mounted pic- tures available for school and club work. The shelf space and working conditions are crowded, the need for books to supply the increasing number of readers is great, but this year we are asking for no increases. Respectfully submitted, Everett W. Robinson, Chairman Jennie F. Copeland, Secretary Fred W. Day Annie A. Horton Kenneth C. Sherman INSPECTOR OF PLUMBING Mansfield, Mass. December 30, 1930 Mr. Harold H. Everett, Town Teenager Dear Sir: ' I respectfully submit the following report, January 1, 1930 to December 31, 1930. Number of Inspections .__.__ ---- ------------ ------------ . 41 Respectfully submitted, B. P. SUMNER, Plumbing Inspector 117 Police Department Mr. Harold H. Everett, Town Manager, Mansfield, Mass. Dear Sir: Following is the report of the Police Department for the year 1930. In this period 117 arrests have been made for violation of laws within the Town, a substantial increase over 1929, due to a large extent to more rigid enforcement of the motor vehicle laws rather than any increase if. the more serious offenses. The total amount in fines assessed by the Courts was $1,675.00, slightly less than the amount received in the previous year. Of this total, $985.00 was for motor vehicle violations and was turned over to the State, while $690.00 received for all other offences, was returned to the Town treasury. None of the more serious crimes have been committed, but we seem to have had our share of the more troublesome misdz- meanors. Drunkenness has increased from 22 cases in 1929 to 32 in 1930. Tramps and vagrants also show a marked advance over the previous year, probably due to the general business depression. Moral offenses show a slight increase, while juvenile delinquency has given less trouble than in previous years. During the past year 22 automobile accidents causing personal injury have been reported, three of which resulted in death. Seven bicycle riders were involved in these accidents; two of these were fatally injured. These figures show that the bicycle was by far the most deadly vehicle on our highways in 1930, and should con- stitute a grave warning to all persons who use this mode of travel, and especially the parents of snall boys who are allowed to ride bicycles upon our congested highways before they reach the age of understanding. Motor Vehicle Inspector Lawrence J. Colrick has continued to give valuable aid in the investigation and prosecution of these cases, and his assistance is greatly appreciated. Considerable welfare work and juvenile investigation has been undertaken during the year with the able assistance of Miss Olive F. MacKinnon, agent for the Society of Prevention of Cruelty of Children. Comparatively few of these cases have reached the 118 Courts and the results in most instances ,have been very encourag-' ing. The installation of a telephone system of communication on Main Street has filled a long -felt want, as after midnight very few telephones are available to the officer on patrol. This system has proven its worth in a number of instances and is in daily use. The merchants and business men on Main Street have for some time advocated another patrolman for night duty, and with- out question the addition of another officer is both practical and desirable from the standpoint of safety and protection. Owing to conditions at the present time, however, it would seem inadvisable to increase the appropriation to such an extent unless the desire for this added protection is more definitely expressed. I again wish to thank the members of the Department for their loyalty and service, and to express my appreciation to you and the Board of Selectmen for your valued assistance.

There are several cases pending which will probably all be decided within the corning year. The complaint of the town against one Buratti for allowing the streets to be flooded with water is more or less troublesome. The defendant at one time agreed to water -proof his cellar, but from information which has come to me, this has not yet been done. the case of the Town against the City of Boston is one of some consequence to determine whether support shall be assessed against the Town or the City of Boston in the case of Myra C. Fitzgerald.. This matter will undoubtedly be decided in the near future. The point involved is one of domicile. The Wichland and the Waggott cases, both involving land damage; will probably come up at the next term of Court at Taun- ton. No judgments have been rendered against the Town, nor is it likely that there will be any, of any consequence, in the immediate future. Respectfully submitted, CLARENCE A. BARNES, Town Counsel 120 SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES Mr. Harold H. Everett, Town Manager Mansfield, Mass. Dear Sir: I herewith submit the annual report for the department of Weights and Measures.

REPORTS OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE For the Year of 1930 To the Honorable Selectmen and Citizens of the Town of Mansfield: In the interest of economy, your school committee confines it- self in this report to fundamentals, insofar as the general manage- ment of the schools is concerned, leaving the detail matter of the various reports—i. e.—the reports of Superintendent and prin- cipals of the schools—on file, subject to call of citizens desiring further information, all of which is available at the office of the Superintendent of Schools. The physical condition of your schools has been much im- proved during the year just closed. Several of the elementary or grade school buildings were selected for such attention, as funds were available, due in part to the special appropriation allowed by the generous response of the voters at the last annual town meet- ing. The interior of the Spaulding School was completely repaired —the walls and ceilings of all classrooms and corridors were cov- ered with metal, largely reducing the fire hazard—this., together with other needed repairs made, put the building in good condition for a number of years to come. The High School, Roland Green, and Paine Schools, as well as rural schools, were given attention so far as funds permitted and opportunity offered. - The committee is of the opinion that the matter of putting the Central School Building in good condition should. re-ceive the serious attention of all the citizens, and have accordingly presented an article to that effect to be inserted in the town warrant. Having in mind the thorough educational program as outlined 147 by our Superintendent of Schools and given the assurance that the welfare of our children shall in no wise suffer, we feel confident that we can reasonably come before you this year with the request for a reduces allowance. We have, therefore, presented our budget for $110,000. FINANCIAL STATEMENT For the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 1930 DR.
