The Honorable Mayor Ivan Allen
City Hall

Dear Mayor Allen,

My husband and I want to commend you on your statement in
Washington before the committee on the President's proposed Public
Accommodations bill, It took courage for a mayor of a southern
city to speak as you did--but Atlanta and you and all of us who
live here grew with your statement. It isn't easy to know what
is the right thing to do or when to do it. But now is the time
when we need courageous leadership. Thank you for doing what you
did.

Sincerely,
Bot. 0 tie~

Mrs. He. A. Pfiffner
