AT With only sixteen days left of the by the Baltimore county health department, was begun yesterday by residents of forty-three homes in Essex, where nearly one hundred war-plant workers are housed. A spokesman for the group, Mrs. Frank Fries, wrote to Dr. Robert H. Riley, State director of health, setting out facts concerning an alleged unsanitary condition which she said threatened the health of the community.

Wrote To Roosevelt The letter was directed to the State official, Mrs. Fries said, after she and her neighbors had appealed in vain to the County Commissioners at Towson and to other county officials. She wrote a letter to President Roosevelt several weeks ago, and received an innocuous reply from Paul V. McNutt, director of the War Manpower Commission, she said. Various county sanitary and health inspectors have visited the area involved, but nothing concrete has resulted, it was said.

The county officials claimed in letters written to the petitioners that the project of extending the water lines into the neighborhood would entail an expense of approximately $16,000. Further Objections Further objections by the officials was that the pipe line would not be a "paying Last year the residents and property owners subscribed a sum of $1,700, which was taken to Towson by one county commissioner, and later returned only upon the demand by the contributors just prior to the fall county elections. The request for a return of the money was made, according to one donor, because "it had been in the hands of the politicians too long already, and we didn't want it spent for any other purpose than for getting the pipe line laid." Frank Wagner, one of the residents said last night: "We will gladly get together and dig the ditches the county will only lay the pipe, so we can connect to the line.

Frank visited Arab markets and Arab homes, talked with them in small villages and on trains. She imagines they are more apt to be governed by local politics and their own advantage than by allegiance to either of the foreign powers fighting on their soil. "But I certainly think they would prefer the French and Americans to the Nazi interloper," she added. When she was there in 1925, the Arabst judged Americans largely by the wealthy tourists who bargained with them in their markets. French Resented Although the large Italian population in Tunis presented a problem to the French when she was there, Mrs.

Frank believes they might welcome the Americans after having felt the heel of the Germans. But they have long resented the French. While the French administrators gave them many privileges, including their own schools, Mrs, Frank noted that the Italians felt they did not have power in proportion to their numbers.
