SUTHER L AND May 31, 1967 Dire ctor MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: Mayor Ivan Allenr Jr. Carl T. Sutherland I have reviewed the current status of registers containing the names of Negroes among the top three. I find that: The list for Equipment Operator I, which is headed by the name of a Negro who was referred May 10, 1967, but was not employed, still is headed by the name of the same Negro but that he wai~ed certification with the Construction Department and is waiting for a vacancy in the Water Department. The Semi-Skilled Worker list on which the three top applicants were Negroes as of May 16 now has five whites at the top of the list. The promotional list for Equipment Operator I in the Construction Department on May 16 had two qualified applicants, both Negroes. One has been promoted and the other is awaiting a vacancy. The promotional list for Equipment Operator II in the Construction Department still has two Negroes who have waived certification for existing vacancies. They are waiting for vacancies in their present locations as they do not wish to transfer to locations where the present vacancies exist . �Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. -2- May 31, 1967 The promotional list for Laborer II in the Construction Department now has eight Negro eligibles. There are twelve vacancies. I have acquainted Mr. Nixon with this situation, and he is sending Mr. Sojka to see me about it. Mr. Nixon states that he will take necessary action to see that there is no discrimination. The promotional list for Semi-Skilled Worker in the Water Department which had three Negro eligibles as of May 16 is exhausted. The three have been promoted. The list for Sewer Serviceman II (Construction) which had three Negroes at the top as of May 16 is exhausted. These three and one additional Negro have been promoted since that time. The three Negroes listed at the top of the Waste Collection Driver promotional list in the Sanitary Department and the three Negroes listed at the top of the Waste Collector II list (Sanitary) have been assigned to the extra board for the higher classes.,and work in the higher classes in the absence of the regular employees. They will be assigned to permanent position numbers as soon as vacancies occur. My placement office tells me that we are not meeting the resistance on the appointment and promotion of qualified Negroes that we once met. They state that the situation has improved greatly in recent months. CTS:cbt �May Z3, 1967 MEMORANDUM TO: Gen. Carl T . Suthe:rlancl FROM: .Ma.yoi- Ivan Allen, Jr .

It just happens that I remember Mr. Johnson who was an applicant 4½ years ago during the time that I was Acting Civil Defense Director.

General Woodward has expressed the desire to employ a qualified Negro in his department, but he thinks that Johnson is not properly qualified. Sincerely, CARL T .

Due to the fact that the salaries have been low and even yet are not too competitive, we are failing to attract graduates fr om either of our local library schools, Emory University and Atlanta Universi ty.

There has been no situation in branch promotions where a qualified applicant has been refused a promotion on the basis of race. The branch staffs are not segregated. We feel that the Summit leaders have received a mistaken impression of the make-up of the library staff.
