or two d~tTs work wlth two teems of heroes soooplng the pit
deeper that would take safe of the fltaeoonoet dumping for
s~rveral years, and be eventually pm porl~ oovex*ed ove~.
~ffox-ts are being n~de to seoure a gr~nt of the use
of this p~t for thio purpose.
As ~oon as the new pit ia assured the old dump will be
disoontinued And means wllA then hav~ to be provided
to have lax~o trenohes du~ to properX~ bury the old dump
materlaX.
The above wo~k, together with the wer~ requireA to
oXean up and bury the nany private duap monaoeo sa the
lsXand, would afford a splendid oppor~unA~y for a very
winter, if funds for employment ate appropriated by tho State
and Town this fall and winter.

If f~ilids are tm be appFol~ated b~ the State this year
we are endeavoring to see that we get our aha~e in Hantu0ket,
AX3. those dumps are heaXth menaooo and 1FA'O~lers of
mosquitoes, flies and rats, and we do hope provision can be
m~de for funds to oontinue thXs moat necessur~ work.
We have leerned that the State lMpar~nent of Publlo

possibility of ~eouring a State appropriation for the use
of our major tide water probXems, otmh a8 Long

proposition wi~ the town a~p~opriatlon.
There no doubt wilX be cons~derabXe legislation this
