THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
July 26, 1963
Dear Mayor Allen:
Ihave read with great interest, the report of your testimony
before the Senate Commerce Committee on the Administra-
tion's civil rights proposals. You made a number of very
effective points and I believe your excellent presentation
will prove to be extremely helpful. Your candid, courageous
statements are, I believe, most commendable,
The leadership that has been demonstrated in Atlanta provides
an encouraging model for cities throughout the United States.
Under strong leadership the people of Atlanta have been able
to recognize and understand a difficult, complex problem
and resolve it -- at least partially -- in a direct and mature
fashion.
Sincerely,
/
;
Honorable Ivan Allen
Mayor of Atlanta
Atlanta, Georgia
