Finch Alexander Barnes Rothschild & Paschal Cecil A, Alexander, F.A.1,A. November 11, 1969 The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr., Mayor City of Atlanta Atlanta, Georgia Dear Ivan: We thought you might be interested in the enclo sed from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. For your information I have tendered my resignation as Chairman of the Housing Re sources Committee to the Mayor elect so he can plan accordingly . My reason is that my position has exc luded our firm from taking any housing commissions. Our failure in recent months to obtain other type s of commissions, which we anticipated might be ours, and the contraction in general in building has made it imperative that we seek work in the housing field. I also turned down the Governor ' s request to serve on his committee. It has been a really rewarding experience to serve as your Chairman. Your contribution in the field of housing will be one of the hall marks of your admini stration and I am happy that I had a role in it. It has been a gr e at eight years and as Pericles time was known as the "Golden Age of Athens", y our time will, I am sure, become the "Golden Age of At lanta". With warmest regards. Since<~ Cecil A.
