ROY L. MORGAN 3900 WATSON PLACE, N. W. • APARTMENT 2A, TOWER B WASHINGTON, D. C. September 21, 1966 Dear Ivan: Enclosed find a clipping which to me does not do you justice. However, I agree with one thing, you certainly looked great in the Atlanta racial crisis. It proved what I always said, you are a man of great stature and certainly you have won the plaudi~ and respect of all good and decent citizens throughout the United States. I have heard many wonderful things said about you and your fairness in handling this matter. Of course, it is no surprise to me. I can appreciate your views which are similar to mind. However, there is a breaking point, and I think that under all the circumstances you were most tolerant and understanding . I wish to reiterate what many have said, that there was nothing that you did in the Atlanta situation which was not outstanding. You have no apologies to make to anyone. I think the article , which I have enclosed, is a weak one, and not as strong as it should be. With warmest personal regards to one of the best, Sincerely, Roy L. Mo rgan Honora ble Iva n Allen Ma yor o f At lanta City Hal l Atlant a, Georgia Enclosure �
