Re The Urban Coalition

We are encouraged to note that you are participating
in the deliberations and programming sponsored by the Urban
Coalition.

We are particularly concerned with two phases of the
Coalition's statement of principles: (paraphrased) 1) "to
work for a guarantee of ‘equal access to all housing, new
and existing';" and 2) "as a first goal in dealing with
unemployment ‘putting at least one million presently unem-
ployed into production at the earliest possible moment'."

Please be assured that the experiences gained from
our Atlanta Community Relations Program, concerned with
fair housing and employment on merit, will be made avail-
able to the personnel of such committees as you may consider
appointing to deal with these issues.

Bingersty Eres: ‘
