to see our wonderful record in the area of race relations
marred by outside agitators. Please be as sured that you
have the support and admiration of all of your friends and
true citizens of our great city.

Dear Ivan:
Our paths haven't crossed lately to enable me to
say what a splendid job I think you are doing as
Mayor.
I felt impelled to at least send you a note after
yesterday's demonstration with your courageous
and able action.
Atlantans should be - and I feel sure are - proud
and grateful for the job you're doing. You have
our best wishes - and our prayers.
Sincerely,

Dear Mayor Allen:

Sitting comfortably in a chair after breakfast, I read.
about the trouble yesterday--the two first page stories in
the CONSTITUTION and Mr. Patterson's superb editorial built
mostly around your words and deeds.

As a moderately active liberal, I am saddened by the incident;
it should not have happened. Yet it was a small affair when
compared with Watts and similar outbreaks in northern and
western cities. Atlanta's image as a southern city which
manages to handle its problems is not seriously damaged.

You had some help from the police and from sensible negro
leaders. But it was your coolness,courage, and resourceful-
ness which saved the day. Yesterday you won a Congressional
Medal or its equivalent, and you also achieved the personal
stature in the minds of whites and colored which will enable
you deal effectively with the issues which remain.

Cheers and cheers for the Mayor!

Indignation over the meaningless murder of a teenage youth
this weekend is not a reaction just of the Negro residents of Atlanta •. It is shared
by thousands, by the great majority of people whose feelings reflect the real character of the City.
Public indignation and condolence must be expressed. As one
public voice, Channel 5 expresses it. We support the Mayor's pledge to bring those
responsible to justice.
Anyone who has any information regarding this crime has the
moral obligation to report it to the authorities .
Because of this shocking murder of an innocent youth, shot
from a passing car, the weekend disorders may have been an understandable reaction of
frustrated people, trapped in conditions they cannot change, faced with problems they
cannot solve alone.
But disorder and violence in the street solve nothing.
Those so-called "leaders" who whip up the emotions of these people have a record of
zero on the scoreboard.
Atlanta's poverty people need schools, jobs, decent places

There is no magic wand t o wave to get these things . But
throwing rocks and firebombs won't get them either. They aren't going to help anybody with anything.
The public policy must be to contain them and restrict them,

Indignation over the meaningless murder of a teenage youth
this weekend is not a reaction just of the Negro residents of Atlanta.. It is shared
by thousands, by the great majority of people whose feelings reflect the real char-
acter of the City.

Public indignation and condolence must be expressed. As one

Anyone who has any information regarding this crime has the
moral obligation to report it to the authorities.

Because of this shocking murder of an innocent youth, shot

frustrated people, trapped in conditions they cannot change, faced with problems they

Atlanta's poverty people need schools, jobs, decent places

There is no magic wand to wave to get these things. But
throwing rocks and firebombs won't get them either. They aren't going to help any-
body with anything.

The public policy must be to contain them and restrict them,

WAGA-TV offers a reasonable opportunity to reply to the views expressed in the editorial to a responsible person or group repre-
senting a significant opposing viewpoint, provided request for reply time is submitted to WAGA-TV within one week of this telecast.

Honorable Mayer Ivan.Allen, Jro
Mayor of the City of Atlanta
68 Mitchell St., S.W.

Atlanta, Georgia 3031}

My Dear Mayor Allen:

This letter is not only to laud you for the great efforts you have shown

in making Atlanta a place of harmony” "and providing a democratic government
for all its people but to praise you for the great,courage exemplified in
the recent racial incident. You steod as a" Gulliver in the midst of the
Lilliputians " or as an invulnerable man in the midst ‘of enemies. You won
your battle with courage as did David against eo

Any rational person should be aware that the racial question is not one that
will be solved over night in the minds and hearts of’ Negroes er whites.
Neither will it be solved by violence. Consequently, Stokely Carmichael and
S.N.C.C. should be ashame of inciting riots that causes ocent black and
white men to be injured and killed while they cowardly slip away completely
unharmed. The Civil rights movement by no means should cease, but the tac-
tics of S.N.C.C. are only impeding the progress ‘of the Negro at a time when
he is benefitted more tie at any other time in ‘the hisfory of his existence
in America.

Complimenting you again, we te you to-know that) the actions of S.N.C.C.
are not the consensus of the great “majority,of Negroes. There are many
of us who still desire to become conscious contributors and lay aside the
status of beneficiary and ward for that offa collaborator and participant
in the American Civilization. We appreciate you greatly.

Sincerely,

Fred Ellis

Dear Mayor PJ.len:
I just wanted to take this opportunity to personally
congratulate and cOJI1JIEnd you on the definite and courageous stand
you have taken during the recent racial problems in Atlanta. I
apologize for not being in a position to write earlier, but I was
out of town a good portion of last week; ha-1ever, I can assure you
that I didn't miss any of the newscasts or neglect an opportunity
to keep up to date on the current situation in Atlanta.
I3efore I left for Texas last weekend, I told Carl Reith,
our president and a personal friend of yours , ha-1 much I admired the
action you had initiated, and I want to go on record that you have
considerably more "nerve" than I have at this point. I would further
like to state , that although my tirre seems to be at a premium, I
kna-1 that you are a much busier individual than any of us at Colonial
Stores and if I can ever help in any way , please feel free to call on
me. I would deem i t a pr i vilege and an honor to be able to support
you in any manner. You have my utmost respect and confidence .

considerably more "nerve" than I have at this point. I would further
like to state, that although my time seems to be at a premium, I
know that you are a much busier individual than any of us at Colonial
Stores and if I can ever help in any way, please feel free to call on
me. I would deem it a privilege and an honor to be able to support
you in any manner. You have my utmost respect and confidence.

Sincerely,

Wm. M. Robinson \
