E . / PHONE [404] 524 -8091 / ATLANTA , GEORGIA 30303 July 15, 1969 Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. City of Atlanta City Hall 68 Mitchell Street, S. W. Atlanta, Georgia Dear Mayor Allen: During our discussion May 21, 1969, concerning a nationally prominent speaker (Mayor Lindsay in particular) for our Urban Corps intern orientat ion, you mentioned the possibility of visiting Mayor Lindsay in New York, as an alternative for publicity purposes since New York had pioneered in the Urban Corps concept. Last weekend I mentioned your idea to Dr. Timothy Costello, Vice-Mayor, City of New York, at Mayor Lindsay's office during a series of meetings about student intern programs. Vice-Mayor Costello apo],ogized for Mayor Lindsay not being able to come to Atlanta for our orientation but was most enthusiastic about your idea of visiting New York. He asked me to see if you would be interested in such a visit during August even though we have established our Urban Corps program for this year. Dr. Costello said such a visit would be "most c onstructive for Mayor Lindsay ." I will be glad to request additional details on such a visit if you desire. Sincerely, ~ WILLIAMS Director SAM A.
