This brief note is written to tell you that Madelaine and

Dear Ivan,
When I passed the time of day with you on the
C &amp; Scorner the other day, I never dreamed you would
be embroiled in a riot in Atlanta that afternoon.
An angry mob, incited as they were, is very terrifying and it did take great courage for you voluntarily
to engage personally in quelling it. The purpose of
this letter is simply to let you know that I am proud
of you and proud to know you.
I van, you get 1ots of
advice and suggestions from everybody, most all of
whom are much smarter and better informed than I am.
Some fifteen years ago when you considered running for
governor, I did suggest that it was a mi stake to stand
11 four
square on the county unit system 11 •
Now I can 1 t refrain f r om suggesting that it is a
mistake to try to prosecute Carmichael and 11 put him
away 11 for a number of years . At this time you are
riding the crest of the wave. The negroes themselves
are undercutting Carmichael. Every time he opens his
mouth you go further ahead and he loses more. Every think is going for you.
I would surmise that the case
against Carmichael is , to say the least , nebulous but
win or lose the case , prosecuting him is , I believe ,
bound to bring some sympathy . Why make a martyr out
of him? Someone else will take his place and jailing
him won't r eally r esolve the big issue . This is really
not intended as advice but simply my reaction as an
admittedly uninfo rme d and unofficial observer .
You are a great man.
Best re ga rds ,
I'

September 9,1966

Dear Ivan,

When | passed the time of day with you on the
C &amp; S corner the other day, | never dreamed you would
be embroiled in a riot in Atlanta that afternoon.

An angry mob, incited as they were, is very terri-
fying and it did take great courage for you voluntarily
to engage personally in quelling it. The purpose of
this letter is simply to let you know that | am proud
of you and proud to know you. Ivan, you get lots of
advice and suggestions from everybody, most all of
whom are much smarter and better informed than | am.
Some fifteen years ago when you considered running for
governor, | did suggest that it was a mistake to stand
"four square on the county unit system'',

Now | can't refrain from suggesting that it is a
mistake to try to prosecute Carmichael and "put him
away'' for a number of years, At this time you are
riding the crest of the wave. The negroes themselves
are undercutting Carmichael. Every time he opens his
mouth you go further ahead and he loses more. Every-
think is going for you. | would surmise that the case
against Carmichael is, to say the least, nebulous but
win or lose the case, prosecuting him is, | believe,
bound to bring some sympathy. Why make a martyr out
of him? Someone else will take his place and jailing
him won't really resolve the big issue. This is really
not intended as advice but simply my reaction as an
admittedly uninformed and unofficial observer.

 

You are a great man.

Best regards,

OANA

Dear Mayor Allen:
Our entire family wishes to thank you for the courageous
and forthright manner in which you have led the city,
collectively and personally, in counteracting the riotous
behavior of these irresponsible individuals. Apparently
this organization wants all the opportunities and
benefits of work without producing a thing, other than
destroying what so many of us ha ve worked years to create .
If there is anything that we can do to help you in any
manner, please let us know.

Ma. Ivan Afen, Jr.
Mayor, City of Atfanta
City Hall

Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Ivan:

May I add my words of pratse and pride to the many you have
akneady received for your words and deeds during the unpleasant-
ness a few days ago. The courage you displayed in mingling with
the mob and making yoursels a target for possible violence to
your person won the nespect and admiration of every decent
citizen of Atlanta. Even mone significant, 4t seems to me, was
your necognition of the fact that although justifiable grievances
may be present among the peopke of the areas of our inner-city
that those who were involved in the incident do not truly
nepresent the citizens of Atlanta - negro oA white. Your cakn
and neasonableness, your refusal to answer hate with hate or
violence with violence served, it seems to me, as a Steadying
Angtuence without which the incident might have become much more
Serious,

AS one who has been vitally concerned with the problem of good
racial relations here in Atlanta, ads well ads one sympathetic to
the needs, desines and frustrations of the Aegnro community, 1
4impky want you to know how proud I am of you and to assure you
that you may count on my continued support any way that you may
See fit to use At.

Janice joins me in these sentiments and together we extend our
warmest personal greetings and good wishes for your continued
Successful Leadership.

Sincerely yours,

acd
