469. The following communication from the Mayor was received and placed on file, and
1960 Federal Census
copies sent to the Council:
I
Gentlemen of the Council:
The regional director of the Federal Census, Mr. Charles Anthony, reported
,- v
---- _ -- -
today that the 1960 population of Salem is 38,871. Compared to the 1960 figure of
41,880, this represents a drop of 32009 and to the State figure of 40,117, a drop of
1246. The rate of drop for the last two five year periods has been slightly over 4%.
Undoubtedly the factors accounting for the drop have been the lure of the suburbs,
increased mobility, smaller family groups, and the destruction of much lower grade
� 1 housing. The central business area has lost much of this type during the last ten
years and the loss has not been offset by the rather limited home building.
However, should the Council be dissatisfied with the results of this census, they
could register formal protest with the regional director. The check counts taken thus
far have tallied closely with the original figures.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Francis X. Collins
Mayor

cannot subscribe to the proposition that the city should give compounded increases

I am returning this order disapproved as unnecessary because the City Solicitor,
01
2' Mr. Alfred A. Dobrosielski, had already filed with the Essex Probate Court in Salem
a petition for instructions on December 7, 1960. The City Solicitor took this action
at the formal request of the Salem School Board, the board properly concerned with
I; sites for school buildings. A courtesy call to the City Solicitor or inspection of
Cc the docket of the Essex Probate Court would have forestalled council consideration of

The following Veto was received from the Mayor: -Veto- Ordinance
Gentlemen of the Council: Planning Department
I am returning this Ordinance disapproved because it would impose upon the city
a substantial annual operating expense for benefits which would be remote, speculative,
and illusory. A $25,000.00 a year expenditure over a period of 8 to 10 years for such
chimerical results cannot be justified in this era of rising governmental costs.
Salem's need is for a comprehensive city plan to guide the future development of the
city on social, economic and physical lines. A competent firm of planning consultants
could produce that plan with the greatest despatch and the least cost.
The precipitate and premature vote for this planning department I interpret as
indicative of a Council climate now favorable to a proposal for planning. To that end
7
I have already suggested to the Planning Board and its Chairman, Louis Baker, that
they proceed at once to interview various planning consultants with a view toward
making a recommendation. Thereupon, I shall ask of the Council an appropriation to
finance the city's share of a Federally aided planning program.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Francis X. Collins

Retaining Wall// r !,!I,
I am returning this order disapproved because it is unnecessary. Porter Street, p ;
ki
as the accompanying plan shows, is terminated 130 feet west of Cherry Street by private '

property. A retaining wall there would deprive the owner of number 15 Porter Street

August 4, 1961 at 11:15 A.M. All members were present. On the motion of Councillor

618. 1 The following Veto was received from the Mayor:
Veto - taking 34 Derby ..
St. Gentlemen of the Council:
I am returning this request disapproved because it would deprive an eldering
couple of the home in which they have lived many years. The owner, after fifty-seven
years residence, was not enthused at the prospect of losing her home. This being the
case, the City should try remedying alleged traffic hazards by means other than the
callous eviction of the elderly citizens.
f With the consulting firm engaged to provide a comprehensive plan, the City should
wait for competent recommendations in such matters as these.
Very truly yours,
F

619• The following Veto was received from the Mayor:
Veto - voting machines
"L
Gentlemen of the Council:
I am returning this request denied because the City at this time has demands upon
its available free cash more imperative than the need of voting machines. Trends in
various categories of Welfare have already sharply restricted the possible use of free
i
cash. Before making requests of this magnitude, the Council should seriously weigh
i
the costs against the benefits, if any, to the tax-payer.
Right now I find no compelling reason for saddling the tax-payer with a burden of
this sort in order to provide the city official running the election with less work
and speedier results.
Very truly yours,

Mayor
No action for 7 days (017.)
i
620. The following Veto was received from the Mayor;
t Veto - Trans. part
of Boston St.- Park Gentlemen of the Council:
I am returning this order disapproved because it is vague, ambiguous and confusing:
B'
It fails to define the area involved or the care and maintenance desired. It places
in the Park Department an area, portions of which in the past were claimed by the
abutters, which would seriously handicap the City in the future use of this land. It
would also exact of the Park Department care and maintenance of functions now properly
in the Street Department.
If the purpose of the order was merely to provide for a more presentable appear-
ance of the lawn area involved, then the order should have been written as a simple
August 10, 1961
request to the Park Department for such care by courtesy.

Opinion
i € Petition of Lynn Gas j Re: Lynn Gas Company Petition
' Co.
i { Gentlemen:
j , General Laws Chapter 161 , Section 86, read as follows:
1t r Consent of municipality to entry of another gas company. In a town where a gas
company exists in active operation, or where a person owns or operates works for the
manufacture and sale of gas, no other gas company, nor any other person, shall dig up
' ! and open the street, lanes and highways of such town in order to lay gas pipes therein,
without the consent of the aldermen or selectmen, granted after notice by publication
P or otherwise to all parties interested and a public hearing.
In view of the above section the Lynn Gas Company Petition is properly before the
I ' City Council and I would suggest that a notice of the petition and a public hearing die
published in the Salem Evening News together with a registered letter of notice of the
petition be mailed to the North Shore Gas Company. It seems to me that the Lynn Gas
Company should pay the fee for publication.
A suggested notice for publication is set out below:

House lots
Salem Willows Area i Gentlemen:
In accordance with the request contained in the City Council Order dated July 16,
following is a list of House Lots off Fort Avenue that have been sold by the City, but
have not yet been built upon.
Lot No. 39 - Agreement Expires Jan. 11, 1962.
Lot No. 38 - " " Nov. 20, 1961.
Lot No. 14 - " " Sept. 21, 1961.

In addition to the above, there are forty lots shown on the Engineer's Plan that I
have not been assigned to veterans. Five of these lots are included in the lease to
i,
I
the Girl Scout Camp.
The remaining thirty-five lots are for the most part ledge and on a higher eleva-
tion, and in my opinion, the cost of installing services would be exorbitant.
It is also my opinion that these undeveloped areas should have the proposed house
lots redesigned due to the radical change in the original plan as a result of sale to
Rea
Sch the New England Power Co. for their high tension line that cuts across the area.
Very truly yours,

City Solicitor
Personnel Board Ordinance: - Personel Board
Gentlemen:
i
I received a verifax copy of a purported ordinance indicating that it has had
First Passage by the City Council on August 10, 1961 and that on August 24, 1961 it
was "referred to me, as City Solicitor, to be returned to Council next meeting and
Put in legal form for second passage," without any other explanation or intention
manifested.
i
At the outset, I must inform you that from reading the copy of this purported
ordinance, it is apparent that you do not intend to amend Section 7 of Chapter 14,
because Chapter 14 of the Revised Ordinances of the City of Salem 1952 deals specifi-
cally with the subject matter of "Licenses". Therefore, I must advise that the First
Passage of this purported ordinance is not proper from its inception and therefore
null and void.
Secondly: I must make reference to your insertion of "two members of City Coun-
cil" for membership on this Personnel Board. It would be improper and incompatible
to have two members of the City Council on this Personnel Board and then upon an
appeal by any unsuccessful petitioner from findings of the Personnel Board have these
same councillor sit as part of the City Council to act on this appeal. Justice Lummus
346
i
September 14, 1961
—�of�our Supreme Col aptly stated in a recent, case as follows- The decisive question
I is whether the offices are incompatible. They are not expressly made incompatible by
any constitutional or statutory provision. But offices may be incompatible at common
is
law, because the nature of their duties is such as to render improper the holding of
both offices by one person. There the holder of one office is the superior of the
holder of the other, or has discretionary power to review the action of the holder of
the other, the offices are incompatible." It is my opinion that this ruling is appli-
cable to the instant case before us,
Thirdly: I see no time limit set in Section C of this purported ordinance in
i
i, which any unsuccessful petitioner may appeal the Personnel Board's finding. I feel
this is an integral part of this type of ordinance and should be inserted.
Fourthly: Your reference to Section 21B of Chapter 40 of the General Laws in
section (d) of the purported ordinance is superfluous and redundant and will only lead
to confusion.
Il �f Awaiting your pleasure, I remain,
/s/ Alfred A. Dobrosielski

716. The following communication was received from the City Solicitor relative to the
City Solicitor
'I I Purchase of Voting purchase of voting machines:
Machines
Re; That the City Solicitor is requested to provide the City Council with an interpre-
tation of Section 34 of Chapter 54, specifically, as to whether this section gives the
City Council the authority to initiate an appropriation relative to the purchase of
Voting Machines.
The answer depends on the meaning of. ...the municipal indebtedness act. The
power of municipal government. ...concerned in this controversy are vested in the mayor
jand a municipal council of nine members.
The mayor, in accordance with said section 20 submitted his annual budget for
the year ending November 30, 1918, which was adopted by the municipal council and
j approved by him in April 1918. The budget as submitted, adopted and approved, contain- '
ed a general appropriation of $60,000 for the police department and $62,000 for the
I ,!
fire department. These appropriations, although not spent when the subsequent order
and ordinances here in issue were passed, were sufficient only for the payment of wages
of the policemen and firemen at the rates previously in force, and were not large
enough to meet the increases contemplated. In June, 1918, the municipal council passed
i
an order requesting the mayor to transmit in writing a recommendation for an appro-
priation for purposes deemed by it necessary, namely for increases in the wages of the
policemen and firemen. The mayor, having failed for more than seven days to transmit
such recommendations, the council, by vote of at least two-thirds of its members
34� ,
September 14, 1961 — 1
adopted an order appropriating money for that purpose, which was not presented to the 1
mayor for his approval. Then the council passed, not withstanding a veto by the mayor,
three ordinances making a corresponding increase in the pay of the policemen and fire-
men. The mayor declining to approve pay rolls at the increased compensation, the count 1
there-upon passed two ordinances, despite a veto by the Mayor, the effect of which was
to require the city auditor to draw warrants for pay rolls and bills against the city
and the city Treasurer to make payment thereof with-out approval by the mayor.
These orders, appropriations and ordinances were void because contrary to the ;
u
provisions of the municipal indebtedness act. That act was an innovation in the
administration of the financial affairs of the cities governed by a mayor and a city
council. It is an act of broad application, and all provisions of general and special
laws inconsistent therewith, save in respect not here material, are repealed. The
manifest purpose of the framers of the act was to set rigid barriers against expendi-
tures in excess of appropriations to prevent the borrowing of money for current expen-
ses, to confine the making of long time loans strictly for permanent improvements, and
in general to put cities upon a sound financial basis so far as there ends can be
achieved by legislation. The budget system was one of the means adopted. The respon- Or
sibility for framing and presenting the budget is placed on the mayor. He is required,
within a brief time after the annual organization of the city government, "to submit
to the city council the annual budget of the current expenses of the city." The
budget consists of an itemized and detailed statement of the money required to meet
all the current expenses of the city for the year, with clear specifications of the
amounts to be expended for each particular purpose. The preparation of a budget of
necessity implies a comprehensive survey of all the needs for expenditures for the
ordinary municipal operations and an intelligent and discriminating calculation of
necessary charges. This is made an executive function. The power of the mayor in
this direction, even by way of supplementary budgets, comes to an end when the tax
rate has been fixed for the year. The legislative power of the municipal council
respecting the budget is not unbounded, but is strictly limited to the reduction or
rejection of any item, and it is probhbited from increasing any item in or the total
of the budget and from adding any item without the approval of the mayor. The manifest
design of these provisions is to provide early in the municipal year a complete
t • schedule of appropriations for the general uses of the city and to discourage a tenden-
cy to spend more than the municipal income. Then follows the only provision permitt-
ing the municipal council to take the first step in making appropriations, as follows:
"In case of the failure of the mayor to transmit in writing to the city council
I'
a recommendation for an appropriation of money for any purpose deemed by the council
to be necessary, and after having been so requested by vote of the city council, said
council after the expiration of seven days after such vote, upon its own initiative
may make an appropriation for such purpose by a vote of at least two-thirds of its
members.
1..
343
September 14, 1961
11 These words cannot in reason be construed as permitting the city council at any
i
'I time of its own volition to supplement and increase the items already included in the
annual budget as adopted. Such an interpretation would be incompatible with the
preceding provisions whereby the power of the council to deal with the budget is
1
restrained within the narrow confines. It would be an idle form to prohibit the coun-
cil from increasing any single item or otherwise in any way adding to the aggregate of
appropriations recommended by the mayor, and at the same time allow the council to
raise any one or all of these items and to add new items through the simple devise of
a request to the mayor to transmit a recommendationto that end, and in the event of
his refusal, to make unlimited appropriations covering the same subject. Such utter
' absence of effective restraint cannot be presumed to have been the intent of the
L (
I general court. A legislative act ought to be interpreted, whenever permitted by its
words, so as to make it effective toward a substatial end and not devoid of vitality.
Barrenness of accomplishment cannot be imputed to the legislative department of
government. The context shows that the words "any purpose," in the sentence last
quoted from the act, mean and can only mean an object other than those already included
14 in the annual and supplementary budgets submitted by the mayor. In view of this
candid and well reasoned opinion of Justice Rugg in a recent case, the answer to your
inquiry is in the negative. The opinior. continues, "This unequivocal limitation placed
by the statute upon the power of initiative by the council in making appropriations
LII cannot be circumvented by the agency either of a vote requesting action by the mayor,
t
L << E or of an amendment to ordinances establishing such expenditures, or by the enactment
of an ordinance attempting to deprive the mayor of one of the essential prerogatives
�1
of the chief executive.

� i City Solicitor
' Waite Street Re: That the City Solicitor investigate the alleged encroachment of the Witch City
Auto Body, Co. on land purported to be owned by the City of Salem, known or formerly
known as Waite Street.
Relative to above, my investigation discloses that there has been a dedication
i '
,
of Waite Street as a street, but never any formal acceptance of same by the City. A
street may become a public way by prescription. In the instant case there seems to be
evidence on which I can venture to say that Waite Street has become a public way by
II �II prescription and therefore the public has rights in it.
If the City Conncil deems it advisable and necessary to the public good to claim
LP4 L these rights for the public, it should give the owners of buildings or fences encroach-
ing upon the public way, a notice to remove same within a reasonable time. If the
notice is not complied with, then the City Council should authorize my office to bring
' Si f further proceedings.

Re: Be it requested that the City Solicitor advise this body as to what legislative
steps may be taken at either the municipal or state leval to provide for a premium
subsidy for Blue-Cross Blue-Shield coverage for employees retired prior to July 13
1956 and surviving spouses of city employees who died prior to May 17, 1960.
® In reference to above please be advised that there is no legislative step to be
taken at the municipal level to provide for such a premium subsidy at present. The
State Legislature may initiate such action if it finds that it is Constitutional and
feasible.
i
I memtion Constitutional because our courts have always abided by the rule that
a statute is not to be construed as operating retroactively unless clearly expressed
to be retroactive. As to the feasibility, I ask the Council, - "What date would you
set as a cut-off date as to what retired employees and surviving spouses shall be
subsidized." It could possibly reach to encompass a civil war veteran employee,
could it not?

feels it must repossess, they may do so. This situation is tantamount to foreclosure
of a mortgage by a mortgagee, in that, if the mortgagor defaults then the mortgagee
. 4 has a right to foreclose.

I'Central Motor Bond
Order Gentlemen of the Council:
I an submitting this as a matter of information to the Council.
An opinion from the legal advisers to the Shawmut National Bank, Storey, Thorndike
Palmer & Dodge, has invalidated the November 27, 1961 order appropriating $25,000.00
j
ij from the Free Cash account for the city's share in the $125,000.00 Bond Order for
Central Motor Equipment. The attorneys ruled that moneys returned from earlier loans
from the Free Cash account to pay the state's share of Chapter 90 projects are not
I
available for appropriation until- the year following. Without this return from the
loan, the Free Cash account on November 27, 1961 was insufficient to cover the appro-
priating order.
Co
nse uently3 it will be necessary to submit to the council ,ani entirely new bond
q .
order for equipment at the first meeting of the new year. It will be necessary, also,
p
,
to find another financing procedure to expedite the payment of Chapter 90 projects done
by the city which will not deplete the Free Cash account.

January 25, 1962
Gentlemen of the Council..
I am returning this order disapproved because it calls for an unnecessary
expenditure of city funds. Council meetings are open to the public. They have always
been given advance publicity by the local press. Such being the case, no public
purpose would be served by a series of advertisements of special imitations to the
i ® different precincts.

Very truly yours,

No action for 7 days.

The following communication from the Mayor relative to Council Paper #59 - 1962, Chap. 91 Work
Daniels St. area
was read and made a matter of record;
Gentlemen of the Council:
r;
Previous commitments prevent the appearance of the mayor. However, his policy of
conserving the publicly owned waterfront has been repeatedly demonstrated by the many
i
Chapter 91 projects secured during his administrations. Dearborn Street seawall, '
I �
X55
Collins Cove seawalls, Loring Avenue drainage, Willows seawalls and beaches, and Forest
River seawall, beaches and pool should provide sufficient record of his responsive
i
attitude toward projects involving expenditure of city funds for publicly owned water-
front. r
Very truly yours,

Civil Service - Gentlemen of the Council:
Laborers
i'
I am returning DISAPPROVED this order placing the labor force under Civil Service
vj because it would impair the administrative efficiency of all departments with a labor
(' force. Acceptance of it would not cover those permanent employees with less than six
months service at the date of acceptance.
p
f The city classification schedule would be subject to State Civil Service directive ;.
Such a directive, at a later date, could compel the city schedule to conform to the

The Council already has under consideration an appropriation for that purpose to
be made by transfers of two sums appropriated by the Council for purposes now disapprov-
ed. The Council, in acting favorably upon the request now on the table, would recover

the use of two sums presently frozen. Financing the sewer extension should be infinitely

Veto - Salary
Increase Gentlemen of the Council:
I am returning this ordinance DISAPPROVED because no good reason has been advanced
for adding a considerable amount to the burden of the property taxpayer at this time.
Indeed, the stabilized cost of living and the electorate's recently registered protests
against any sort of tax increase are substantial reasons for maintaining the present
salary and wage scale.
This increase will be paid entirely by the hard-pressed property taxpayer unless
i
iadditional revenue is provided from other sources.

Very truly yours,
/s/ Francis X. Collins

Gentlemen of the Council: 1154.
Veto- Appropriatio;
I am returning disapproved this order requesting an appropriation for trial use Voting Machines
of voting machines in the municipal election of 1963 as an unnecessary expenditure.
Minimum compliance with the statute would add not only Ten Thousand Dollars
($10,000.) to annual election costs but also further sums for shipment, local trans-
portation and storage. Outright purchase would call for an appropriation of Cne
Hundred Eighteen Thousand Dollars ($118,000).
This coming year finds the taxpayers facing substantial increases without adding
further burden merely to appease the few clamoring for speedy results.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Francis X. Collins,
Mayor
No action for 7 days under the rules.

basis in the 1963 municipal election because the expenditures required are not
warranted for the sake of earlier returns.
The paramount consideration should be the convenience of the voter in the
exercise of his free choice. That the machines do not assist in that respect was
revealed by a recent article in the Salem Evening .News. Communities with machines,
compared to those without, showed a bigger drop in voter response to minor offices and
to referenda questions. Obviously, voter participation, a desideratum in true
democracy, is not promoted by the machines.
Machine precincts are engulfed by the late hour surge of voters. The long lines
in a nearby community are said to have discouraged several hundred voters from voting.
Democracy calls for greater not less voter participation. It should not be abridged
merely to indulge the impatient.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Francis X. Collins
Mayor
No action for 7 days under the rules.
