Dear Secretary:
Urge that you reconsider selection of 12 instead
of 15 cities for experimental, low-cost public housing
so as to include Atlanta, Georgia, which is particularly
well-prepared for and in need of such a project.
Low-cost public housing has been aggressively
sought and supported by Atlanta and I ask that you include
Atlanta in this program.
Yours very truly,
FLETCHER THOMPSON
