Dear Luke:

Bext Wednesday, Decernber 13, the National Urban Coalition will
sponsor an Eastern Regional Action Conference of great importance
to Atlanta.

This conference will deal with Expanding Employment Opportunities
in private industry for unemployed and underemployed individuals.

The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and Mayor Allen are cooperating
with the Task Force on Private Employment of the Urban Coalition
in this conference.

Top business executives from throughout the Eastern U. S. will
participate. Some of the firms who will take part in the workshop
discussions are RCA, Eastman Kodak, R. J. Reynolds, G. E.,
and Ford. There are others, along with the National Association
of Manufacturers, Urban League and local business executives
and employment people,

Of key importance to the Atlanta people will be the "premier" of

a slide film presentation recently developed on Atlanta's employment
picture. This film was produced by the City of Atlanta, the Chamber
of Commerce, EOA, the Community Council and Community Chest
with financial support of the Sears-Roebuck Foundation. A couple

of test runs on several business and government leaders has proven
that the film produces real nitty gritty'' discussion of the employment

to Solve Cities’ Ils,

i Provide } Jobs, 200 Businessmen Hear,

By ALEX COFFIN

More than 200 top business-
men, most of them from the
Southeast, gathered in Atlanta
Wednesday and generally agreed
thal it’s simply good business to
expand job opportunities and
help solve urban problems.
_ The regional conference—busi-
ness, rather than ‘social wel-
fare’ oriented—was held at the
American Motor Hotel by the
National Urban Coalition in co-
operation with the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce and city
government. ;

4 slide presentation, speeches
and workshop discussion cen-
vered on the words of the key-
nole speaker, Gerald L. Phil-
iippe, chairman of the hoard of
General Electric Co., who said:

“What this situation boils
down to is that at a time when
business sees a wide need for a
' nore effective labor force, the

urban labor market will provide

 

us with less than ever in terms
of quality and quantity.”

“The cities are going to be his
principal market place, and,
more importantly, the prime
source of his labor supply.”

Rodney Austin, personnel
manager for Reynolds Tobacco
Co., said. “The point of the
Urban Coalilion is that you can
change things.” But, Austin,
warned, business should “‘ciean
up, eliminate duplication, then
fill the gans.” in the field of
employment.

Austin, who headed one of
the workshop discussions, told
of Winston-Salem, N.C. Mayor
M. C. Benton's urging the busi-
ness community to be informed
realistically concerned, com-
mitied and massively involved.

Phillippe said it this way:

The Urban Coalition “is
trying to see if it can generate
more action at all levels of the
business community — some-

 

 

thing tantamount to a national
head of steam — to try and turn
this ghetto silualion around.

“If we businessmen are not
going to take major role in
tackling, and eventually solv-
ing, the problems in our cities,
then who will?

The frequently heard probd-
lem of gelling the jobs and
the people together got a full
airing. Also, the problem of the
underemployed.

Phillippe said that effective
program must be geared to the
ghetto, even the neighborhood
in the ghetto. And, he said, real
work opportunities must be pro-
vided. “What we should offer
is a hand-up, not a hand-out,”
he said.

New hiring techniques and
practices must be used—iaking
into consideration the prior ex-
periences and present attitudes
of the urban dweller of today,

_| Phillippe said.

Dr. Lawrence D. Reddick,
executive director of Opportuni-
ties Industrialization Center In-
stitute in Philadelphia, said
earlier in the day that employ-
ers must be concerned with
those unemployed who have
given up looking, those who
work full time for part-time
pay and those who work part-
time but want to work full time.

Skils that are marketable
must be provided, Reddick

said.

In. some wf sole J.
Forth of General Electric. said,
firms can lessen skill require-
ments because of recent tech-
nological advances. ‘‘Also, the
skill of the worker can be in-
creased,” he added.

The morning workshops fea-
tured a film prepared by the At-
Janta Chamber of Commerce,
Atlanta city government, the
Community Council of the At-
lanta Area and Economie Op-
portunity Atlanta.

The film pointed to the para-
dox of the existence here of
“jobs needing people” and
‘neople needing jobs.”

And while white-collar jobs
will increase greatly in_ the
years to come, the great in-
crease in the central city popu-
lation will be among the un-
qualified.

“Unemployment can stop
growth in its tracks”

creasing the tax drain” were
other points made by the film.

Several expressed concern
that not enough businessmen in-
volved themselves in the oper-
ation of the schools—who supply
the “most important raw ma-
terial,’’ according to Eugene
Rowen, administrative director
of Plans for Progress. ‘‘They
(businessmen) remain aloof
and allow what they wouldn't
from other suppliers.”

I would hope that w would be able to complete worksbop sessions in

reconv ning for workshop sessions in the aftel'tloon. With ev ry workshop conference I have attended-, including the recent Coalition me ting
in Chicago, we have alw ys lost oux udience in the fternoon and I
believe this would b the case in Atlanta wh re you re involving key
bu inessmen.
I would suggest st ;r,tin
bout 9; 30 with gen r
ae ion with welcome
remni,ks by the M yor nd a keynote stage setting addr as by Phillippe,
H nry F ord 011 someone ot thl order .
Woi-kshop sessions would convene bout 10:30 or 11:00 nd run until
12: 30. These might be broken into two workshop periods for each
rticipant. Luncheon would b gin bout 12:45 with the progr m to
commence bout 1:30 or 1:45.

The conference could close with a hard-hitting speech by Phillippe or

to tell · bout some of the things that al"e happening in private industry
in connection with Coalition efforts throughout the counh.·y.
l would also like to see diocussion of the Step Pi-ogram of the National

1819 H Street, N. W.
Suite 220

Washington, D. C. 20006

Dear Mel:

Iam submitting a few of my thoughts on what the Private Employment
Task Force meeting might look like in Atlanta on December 13.

I would hope that we would be able to complete workshop sessions in
the mgrning and end in a general session with a late lunch without
reconvening for workshop sessions in the afternoon, With every work-
shop conference I have attended, including the recent Coalition meeting
in Chicago, we have always lost our audience in the afternoon and I
believe this would be the case in Atlanta where you are involving key
businessmen.

I would suggest starting about 9:30 with a general session with welcome
remarks by the Mayor and a keynote stage setting address by Phillippe,
Henry Ford or someone of this order.

Workshop sessions would convene about 10:30 or 11;00 and run until
12:30. These might be broken into two workshop periods for each
participant, Luncheon would begin about 12:45 with the program to
commence about 1:30 or 1:45.

I would like to see the Atlanta color slide presentation on manpower
programs, problems, etc. presented by the key Chamber of Commerce
official with maybe time for a few questions or comments from the
floor following this. This would take about 48 minutes total. We
might want to pass out some critique sheets to be filled out and
returned giving a chance for expressions or comments on the film
presentation.
Mr. Cotton

The conference could close with a hard-hitting speech by Phillippe or
Ford, Possibly the keynote speech in the morning should be designed
to tell about some of the things that are happening in private industry
in connection with Coalition efforts throughout the country.

I would also like to see discussion of the Step Program of the National
Association of Manufacturers worked into the program, This possibly
could be done in the workshops.

Please let us know what steps you want us to take next.

Sincerely yours,

Dan Sweat

MEMORANDUM
'l
I
At a meeting of the Human Resources Development Group on Friday (Nov. 3),
ideas were discussed and some decisions made as to how the group should proceed
in development and use of the slide presentation dealing with unemployment and
underemployment.
These were the main points of agreement:
1. The presentation is being screened for Mayor Allen and a few others in a
meeting at City Hall on Wednesday afternoon (Nov. 8) at 3 p. m. The presentation
will be evaluated as to its usefulness for showing to the Urban Coalition meeting here
on December 13.
2. Provided there is agreement, the presentation would be shown following lunch
at the Coalition meeting, and it would be critiqued by the group afterwards. Ideas,
conclusions and ways to improve and refine the presentation would be sought.

3. Meanwhile, as a member of the Group, I will see that ·the presentation is
brought to other local groups and individuals, as indicated (advisory groups and
committees of Economic Opportunity, etc.) and will seek the same thing: Ways
of refining it and filling in some of the gaps. Dan Sweat and I will later bring recommendations back to the group, as to possible changes and/or expansion of the
presentation itself, and as to its future use in our community.
Members of the Human Resources Development Group recognize the presentation
for what it is: A beginning effort in need of some answers and conclusions. It would
be presented to the Coalition in that manner, in hopes of accomplishing two purposes:
To serve as an illustration of one effort against this problem, as well as a laboratory
exercise for the Coalition group; and to seek fresh insight and ideas from the critique.

Dear Mr. Sterne:
Enclosed for your information is a copy of a memorandum to Opie L. Shelton,
relative to last Friday' s meeting of the Human Resources Development Group. Mr.
Shelton suggested a copy be forwarded to you.
~
This organization is made up of representatives of five agencies : Our Atlanta
Chamber, the City of Atlanta, Economic Opportunity Atlanta, the Community Chest,
and the Community Council of the Atlanta Area. John C. Wilson and I rep~esent the
Chamber.
The slide presentation referred to was developed over a period of time in
which the Group has discussed in some detail ways of meeting the problems of unemployment and underemployment. We think the presentation could be useful in
planning the program for the meeting of the Urban Coalition group here on December 13.
Please let me know when I can be of help.
Cordially,

November 15, 1967
Dear Friend:
On August 24, 1967, 1,200 leaders of American life met in
Washington at an Emergency Convocation called by The Urban
Coalition. The Coalition, representing business and the
professions, organized labor, religion, civil rights groups
and local government, was established in response to the ·
urgent ne ed for action in behalf of the nation's citi es .
The enclosed Statement of Principles, Goals, and Commitments
adopted by The Urban Coalition identifies specific problem
areas and appeals to both the public and pr ivate sector for
action to meet these needs. The Coalition has cre a ted Task
Forces--one o f which is th e Task Force on Private Employment-to focus on the individual probl em areas. Expanding employment opportunities for the hard-core unemployed has been given
top priority by the Coalition. The Task Force on Private
Employment is holding a series of Re gional Planning Confere nces
to discuss this difficult a nd compl e x problem.
The first conference is scheduled to be held at the AtlantaAmerican Motor Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia on December 13, 1967.
Mayor Iva n Allen, Jr. and the Chamber of Commerce of Atlanta
will be the hosts. We hope y ou r schedul e will permit you t o
join u s in this most import ant proj e ct.
Other conferen ces are planned for Pho e nix , Arizona on January
17, 1968 and Kansas City, Missouri on Janu ary 24, 1968. We
are enclosing a list o f state s covere d b y e ach of the conf e re nce s.
It would b e most helpful if you woul d supply us with
th e name s a nd a dd res s es of appropri a t e a ffili a t e s in these
s t a t es s o we ma y ext e nd an invit a tion to them.
In the meantime, we hope y ou will communicate your interest and support
o f this endeavor to these offici als.

Dear Friend:

On August 24, 1967, 1,200 leaders of American life met in
Washington at an Emergency Convocation called by The Urban
Coalition. The Coalition, representing business and the
professions, organized labor, religion, civil rights groups
and local government, was established in response to the’
urgent need for action in behalf of the nation's cities.

The enclosed Statement of Principles, Goals, and Commitments
adopted by The Urban Coalition identifies specific problem
areas and appeals to both the public and private sector for
action to meet these needs. The Coalition has created Task
Forces--one of which is the Task Force on Private Employment--
to focus on the individual problem areas. Expanding employ-
ment opportunities for the hard-core unemployed has been given
top priority by the Coalition. The Task Force on Private
Employment is holding a series of Regional Planning Conferences
to discuss this difficult and complex problem.

The first conference is scheduled to be held at the Atlanta-
American Motor Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia on December 13, 1967.
Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. and the Chamber of Commerce of Atlanta
will be the hosts. We hope your schedule will permit you to
join us in this most important project.

Other conferences are planned for Phoenix, Arizona on January
17, 1968 and Kansas City, Missouri on January 24, 1968. We
are enclosing a list of states covered by each of the confer-
ences. It would be most helpful if you would supply us with
the names and addresses of appropriate affiliates in these
states so we may extend an invitation to them. In the mean-
time, we hope you will communicate your interest and support
of this endeavor to these officials.
