480 Fielding Lane, Atlanta, Georgia s. W. August 6, 1962 HoQ. Ivan Allen, Jr. Mayor, City of Atlanta City Hall Building Atlanta, Georgia Dear Sir: I am writing this to you as a citizen and tax payer of the city of Atlanta and it is hoped that you will lend your support and influence, and hope that it will preserve the community of white residents. This, of course, relates to the "block busting" campaign being waged by the Negroes in our section of the city. There are three matters of utmost importance I feel that should come to your attention and I would like to suggest that you give the white residents of the community your support. Those matters are as follows: 1. Keeping Negro realtors from seeking listings in the Peyton-Utoy Forest Community. 2. Zoning of property on Gordon Road - M 1. This property is loc a ted on the South side of Gordon between Peyton and Lynhurst. The hearing as I understand it is scheduled for August 9, 1962. J. Zoning a strip of property south of Gordon and east of Peyton for a Negro cemetary. This would keep Negro housing out of the community. The date, as I understand it, for this hearing has not been set as yet. Thank you for any assistance and cooperation you may be able to give in this matter. Ve;;;:~~ ~ lliam L. Scroggs �
