It was only after he had been knocked from the top of a car, where he was urging the crowd to disperse, that Mayor Allen gave orders to police to return force with force.

The airing of grievances must be tolerated, but the imposition of a state of anarchy in a city is out of the question. Atlanta police showed considerable restraint in handling the crowd as they were being pelted by rocks, bottles and bricks. This restraint kept the number of injured to a minimum. The police also reflected the department's effective riot-control training when the mayor gave the orders to move against the mob. It is regrettable that such an incident took place in progressive Atlanta.

A Cause -For Anger MAYOR Ivan Allen· Jr. of Atlanta is one of the new breed of Soutnern political leaders who seeks equal justice fo r all under the law. He has helped earn his community a repu ta ti on .for enligh tened handling of racial matters. The mayor is angry. No t because he was tumbled in the dust by a mob he was trying to calm. He is angry because, he says, the riot was egged on by a group which calls itself non-violent. There is substance in what the mayor says. A sound truck manned by members of t he Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee was rushed to the area of tension where police and taunt ing Negroes faced each other. Over the loudspeaker SNCC denounced ~racist police" and ext olled "black power." In the ensuing violence 16 persons were injured. Between 60 and 70 were arrested. More moderate Negro leadership is critical of SNCC's tactics. One Atlanta minister said t he situation was under control before the "nonviolen t" ones arrived. "They whipped them up with hate," said t'he minister. Others, including the Squthern Chr istian Leadership Conference, condemned t he violence. In these times of tension and unres t , no community can afford t o point a fing"'r a t another or close its eyes to its own shortcomings. The sit uation in Atlanta, how- ,ii Atlanta ever, shows how easily violence can be created ·by irresponsible agent s and how seriously it can affect t he patient, dedicated search for sol utions by individuals of both races. May or Allen has cause to be angry and so have those in Atlanta and elsewhere who know that violence can only destroy. j � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

Undeserved-Abuse For Atlanta The civil r igh ts movement will lose gro un d ·fasl if Negroes fall fo r the phony "bl ack power li Lany chanted by the liJ<es -0£ Snick's Stokely Carmichael. The Carmichael crowd demonstra ted it poten tial for evil in Atlan ta t he other n ight when it t urned an inciden t into a full blown riot . Atlan ta is known t h1;oughout t he na tion as a Southern city wil·h a solid record o.f i;-aci?-1 progres . . Communication between the Negro communi ty and Lhe city's leadership as represent- ed by Mayor Ivan Allen was excellent. Ye t when t he courageous mayor strode in to t he crowd and appeared to h ave it under control, t he Carmichael ga ng worked its mi schief as though t hey h ad rehearsed i_t. The resulting destruction will set race relations in Atl anta back many yeaJiS. Atlanta did not deserve t his a bu se. And as for t he rank and fil e demonstrators who were deceived by t he call for "black power," we quote Mayor Allen's lamen t : "They don· t k now. They j ust don't know." � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading. Examples include books, letters, dissertations, poems, newspapers, articles, archives of mailing lists.
