The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor of Atlanta
Georgia

Dear Mr. Allen:

I'm sure you don't need me to tell you how many people
appreciate your splendid performance before the Senate
Commerce Committee last week, but I can't restrain my

admiration. I think your representations were intel-

ligent, eloquent and persuasive, and a good thing for

the country.

I understand you gave this audacious, statesmanlike

and businesslike ( in a rare and unusual sense ) testi-
mony against a good deal of solid, if backward looking,
advice. If this is the case, my compliments are ardent,
indeed. So this is to thank you for a lot of us in
Atlanta.

Sincerely,
Margaret Long

ML/mg
