while students who accept these
free scholarships are under no OBJ
ligation. to specialize on infantile
paralysis cases after graduation,
said Mr.. Larned, 1.-The National
Foundation feels that If 1t can over
come the acute shortge Of trained
physical therapists all over the
country, this viii be Of great i'm
portance il there should be an cpl
demic of infantile paralysis here or
In some other section"
The scholarships, Of nine and
twelve months duration, cover
transportation to the medical
school, tuition, books and labora-
tory fees and living expenses, as
needed. Applicants must have at

Text of Lesinski's letter follows:

The Honorable
The President

My dear Mr.. President:
Receipt is acknowledged Of your
letter of June l, which is In reply
to my letter of May II, 1915, rela-
tive to the contemplated housing
project in the southwest district of
Detroit, or what Is known as the
down river area of metropolitan
Detroit.
I regret very much, Mr.. President,
that I must emphatically disagree
with the National Housing Admins
traitors statements-they can not be
borne out by the facts. He is at
tempting to move temporary houses
from the Willow Run area to a pro-
posed site in close proximity to the
Veterans Administration Facility, a
distance of four or five miles from
where the houses are presently
located.
Why move these buildings? ]
have been engaged in the construc-
ton and development of real estate
projects in the Detroit area fol
more than 10 years and 1t Is my
considered opinion that it would be
much cheaper to give the Immigrant
labor free rent in the houses al
their present location and In add
ton give them $40 q week for iv-
ing expenses. It would save at least
500 of the estimated cost Of $780,.
900. In fact, in the very area tx
which these houses are to be moved
there are many permanent housing
projects which have been and ART
being vacated daily by Immigrant
| laborers because they are return
ing to their former home communi.

me the letter you addressed to hin
on June / with reference to thi'
proposed temporary housing pro.

I can not agree with the last para.
