Such words obviously business might just decide would disconcert many businessmen to rest on its oars' who feel they were facing up to the problem long before the riots. But Milwaukee executive the fact that business has stepped up its effor ts in the wake of the sumexpected to melt away' 194 Cities mer's violence appears 11ii,l,·11iahle. The Urban Coalition is just one sign. The new national advisory group includes such top business names as Chase Manhattan's Davi<l Rockefeller, Andrew Heiskell of Time, Inc., Litton Industries' Roy Ash, and General Electric's Gerald L. Phillippe. The group is not only preparing task force reports on urban problems, but has backed such legislative programs as the ClarkJavits proposal to create I-million jobs for ghetto residents. It is also helping to blueprint some 50 loca1 urban coalitions. At least three such groups have already been set up-the New Detroit Committee headed by Josepl L. Hudson, Jr., of J. L. Hudson Co. the New York Coalition led by Chris tian Herter, Jr., vice-president ·o t Mobil Oil, and a statewide coalition in Minnesota. The Detroit group (whose m em bers include Ford Motor's Henrv Ford II, General Motors' James M. Roche, and Chrysler's Lynn Townsend) hasn't wasted any time. Meeting with Michigan Governor George Romney last week, it called for passage of a statewide open hous ing law-unquestionably the most powerful support such legislation has ever had in the state. Such groups, of course, are me-rely advisory in nature, and the big q ue~tion is whether in the long run they will generate more than sound and fury. For the present, it's clear that business thinking has taken a significant new turn. As one observer comments : "Industry is no longer content to play follow the leader on urban problems. It is moving ahead itself, drawing on its own resources." Other action. This heightened concern is reflected not only in the insurance industry's announced intention to put $I-billion into slum renewal, but in a spate of local programs surfacing since last summer: • In P ittsbur~h. some 19 corpornBusiness Week October 21, 1967 �BUSINESS WEEK (cont.) October 21 , 19 6 7 tions have contributed $1.4-million to set up Allegheny Housing Rehabilitation Corp., which will buy and renovate old houses in ghetto areas and sell them back to ghetto residents. With a goal of $3-million, the organization hopes to renovate more than 1.000 housing units a year. • A major corporation is now completing plans to construct a manufacturing facility within the ghetto area of a Midwestern city. • 1n· Tampa, the city and General Telephone of Florida have set up a Community Relations Council h eaded by Negro businessman James A. Hammond. Dozens of graduates of th e council's training courses have found jobs. • In Baltimore, over 1,000 ghetto residents were hired in a crash employment program that was initiated last August by companies in the area. • In Cleveland, five banks and six companies put up $400,000 f?~ a _revolving fund for slum rehabihtat10n projects. Negro candidate for mayor, Carl B. Stokes, comments: "Frankly, I don't know what the motivation is, fear or genuine social concern, or both. But the important thing is that business is becoming more involved. " The lis t is endless. In cities across the nation-St. Louis, San Francisco, Camden, Wilmington, Denver -new programs are being mapped out, old efforts intensified. In Detroit for example, between 7,000 and _10,000 ghetto residents have b een hired by the auto companies since the riots. "The jobs were there b efore," says an ob server, " but communications with the community were poor." In u ps tate New York, Rochester Jobs, Inc., an agency that started function ing just last July, has already found over 400 entry-level jobs fo r slum dwellers. All of this apparently reflects considerable soul-searching at the highes t corporate levels. Understandab~y, most companies are reluctant to discuss such matters. "We've learned not to talk about any progress we've made," says one man. "No one wants to admit they haven't been doing all they can." But Ford Motor Co.'s creation of a top-level department of urban affairs is indicative of the new mood. Hiring reforms. One area in which corporate thinking is shifting is in hiring practices. Comments the employee relations director of a major Pittsburgh company: "In the past, corporations pushed the idea of hiring 'qualified' Negroes-protesting that giving preference to a Negro simply because of his race was reverse prejudice. But since the riots, many corporations have been hiring people who couldn't begin to compete with whites for jobs. This doesn't mean that companies are throwing away their yardsticks of productivity and profits. What's happening rather is that many are recognizing that old rules and practices may be screening out potentially competent p eople. As Reed 0. Hunt, board chairman of Crown Zellerbach Corp., puts it: "Most ghetto kids have jail records, but you have to ask what for? You have to ask if he can do a good job?" Long-term goals. Other companies are reviewing th eir contributions programs. Says a Chicago executive: "We used to take the shotgun approach and give $1,000 to every group with a good story. Now we're thinking in terms of five-year commitments in sp ecific areas." As companies become involved in urban problems , many report a heightened sens e of purpose. U.S. Gypsum Co. , for example, rehabilitated six slum buildings in New York's Harl em this summer. It is now working on 150 apartments in Chicago and 64 units in Cleveland, and it has options on 450 more units in Chicago. "We're going along," says an executive, " not with the expectation of a great profit, but to demon strate th at private industry does have a role and responsibility. We are beginning to feel a deepseated involvement th at can't be measured in return to stockholders." Other side. Not everyone shares this feeling, of course. Many companies voice a sense of outrage at the riots. "You can't run a society with riots," says one executive, "and you can't be intimidated by lawlessness." In Milwaukee, currently p lagued by civil rights demonstrations for open hous ing and the scene of two nights of rioting last July, a backlash among some segments of the business community is evident. "We've been breaking our hacks to get jobs for Negroes," says a businessman, "Now with all th e demonstrations, business might just decide to rest on its oars." A number of companies report no appreciable change in th eir policies since the riots. "\Ve've alwavs tried to hire qualified Negroes,"· is the typical comment. One industry observer, in fact, reports that some executives are coming to regard riots "as seasonal hazards, much like hurricanes and tornadoes." But others are anything but complacent. Says Crown Zellerbach's Hunt: "You can't ask the-Negro people to be quiet. . . . Riots are going to occur until there's visible sign of improvement.

Companies are accelerating current programs, initiating new ones, and revising hiring policies What did business learn from the riots that erupted in over 70 Ameri- can cities last summer? When Business Week reporters talked to top executives last week they found: « There’s little sign of a corporate backlash on civil rights programs. # The riots have spurred a broad cross-section of companies, particu- larly large national concerns, to ac- celerate programs or to initiate new ones. = Other companies are taking a second look at their own policies and those of local and federal agen- cies. Their concern allays the fears of some observers after the riots that business would pull back from civil rights efforts out of disillusion- ment or fear of financial risk. James B. Ammon, vice-president and treasurer of Baxter Laboratorics, Inc., says: “I think the riots have made businessmen realize that the Negro’s problems will be more of a factor in our society and businesses in the future, not less of a one... If we don’t develop programs today, we just won’t have as many options five years from now.” William F.X. Flynn, who heads the National Assn. of Manufacturers’ STEP (Solutions To Employment Problems) program, concurs. Flynn and his staff collect and circulate case histories of corporate and com- munity action programs to_ inter- ested companies. “After the sit- uation this summer . . . we found companies impatient to move faster.” And a California industrialist minces no words: “Perhaps riots help more at some stages in the evo- lution of this thing than they hurt. How the devil do you get 200-million people to wake up?” New trend. Such words obviously would disconcert many businessmen who feel they were facing up to the problem long before the riots. But the fact that business has stepped up its efforts in the wake of the sum- mer’s violence appears wndeniable. The Urban Coalition is just one sign. The new national advisory group includes such top business names as Chase Manhattan’s David Rockefeller, Andrew Heiskell of Time, Inc., Litton Industries’ Roy Ash, and General Electric’s Gerald L.

The group is not only preparing task force reports on ur- ban problems, but has backed such legislative programs as the Clark- Javits proposal to create 1-million fobs for ghetto residents.

Linton Tc- ie;;hone 293-1530 NEW YORK TIMES October 12, 1967 Getting Off the Ground The concern of the Urban Coalition, expressed so strongly late last summer by public-spirited citizens during an emergency post-riot convocation in Washington, is beginning to find rootholds where it counts -in the front-line cities of AmerJ~a. Mobilization · of the nation's public and private resources for a vigorous attack on that urban hydraunemploy.ment, slum housing ·and aimlei;s , education -is getting off the ground. Leaders In some fifty cities wiU meet in Chicago next week to establish local action groups that can enlist the resources and energies of business, labor, religious, academic and community organizations. In this city, a New York Co~lition has just started to translate the iofty policy language of the national steering committee into local terms. High-mindedness, of course, will not be · enough. Hard-core· unemployment will take hard-core solutions. Lobbying of superhuman proportions wilt' be required in the busihess and labor communities to break down · traditional attitudes. The Federal Government is in the forefront of action. For this reason the first step of .the local Coalition ls to discuss _the inclusion of New York City in the pilot program, recently announced by the President, to engage the private sector in the attack on u'nemployrpent. But the true effectiveness of the Urban Coalition, the New . York Coalition and those to come in · other cities will be measured . by more than simply seeking inc.reased assistance from Washington. Municipalities with archaic laws and practices that have effectively barred the poor and disadvantaged ..from job and housing gains wil1 have -to be persuaded to change their customs. Certain· industries that have blocked Negroes from full opportunities will have to be re-educated. Certain unions which have denied membership on racial grounds will have to reform their practices.

Linton Telenhone 293-1530 NEW YORK TIMES October 12, 1967 Getting Off the Ground The concern of the Urban Coalition, expressed so strongly late last summer by public-spirited citizens during an emergency post-riot convocation in Wash- ington, is beginning to find rootholds where it counts —in the front-line cities of America. Mobilization of the nation’s public and private resources for a vigorous attack on that urban hydra— unemployment, slum housing and aimless, education —is getting off the ground, Leaders in some fifty cities will meet in Chicago next week to establish local action groups that can enlist the resources and energies of business, labor, religious, academic and community organizations. In this city, a New York Coalition has just started to translate the lofty policy language of the national steering committee into local terms. High- ‘iidednsen: of course, will not be’ enough. Hard-core unemployment will take hard-core solutions. Lobbying of superhuman proportions will be required in the business and labor communities to break down traditional attitudes. — ‘ The Federal Government is in the forefront of action. For this reason the first step of the local Coalition is to discuss the inclusion of New York City in the pilot program, recently announced by the President, to engage the private sector in the attack on unemploy- ment. But the true effectiveness of the Urban Coali- tion, the New York Coalition and those to come in ‘other cities will be measured by more than simply seeking increased assistance from Washington. Municipalities with archaic laws and practices that have effectively barred the poor and disadvantaged from job and housing gains will have to be persuaded to change their customs. Certain industries that have blocked Negroes from full opportunities will have to be re-educated. Certain unions which have denied membership on racial grounds will have to reform their practices. By enlisting the community-action groups—the spokesmen for the jobless and ill-housed—the New York Coalition is getting to the core of center city’s problems.  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

MOSES, Executive Secretary DAN E. SWEAT, JR., Director of Governmental Liaiso n MEMORANDUM To: Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. From: Dan Sweat Subj ect : Organization of L ocal Urban C o alitions A priority goal of the Steering Committee of the National Urban C oalition is the estab lishment of strong local coalitions in the 50 largest urban cities of the nation. This is, of course, essential to the very life blood of any sustained effort to develop a meaningful coalition which can speak for urban America as a whole. The direction taken by these local coalitions will depend upon the individual city or urban area and the wishes of the local leadership. We can safely predict they will take on a wide variety of shapes and forms from city to city. The more I analyze the alternatives to organization of a coalition in Atlanta, the more I am convinced we already have several single -purpos e groups functioning in this very capacity. I believe the identification of these groups as our coalition might reduce or negate the requirement for establishment of any other body, although I believe at some point a leadership meeting should be held to explain the Urban C o alition . �Mayor Allen Page Two October 11, 1967 Probably the best example of a local coalition organized to attack a particular problem area is the Board of Directors of Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc. This group, originally appointed by the governing authorities of the City of Atlanta and Fulton County; and now operating under a non-profit charter, clearly represents the six broad areas of Business, Labor, Civil Rights, Education, Religion and Local Government, which make up the national coalition. (A copy of the EOA Board is attached. ) A second group organized around a single -purpose is the Housing Resources Committee. (Copy of Committee Structure attached.) Other groups which would fall in this category would be the Community Relations Commission, Atlanta Y o uth C o uncil, and the Citizens A d visory C o mmittee on Urban Renewal. (C o pies of CRC, AYC and CACUR B o ard members attached.) Each of these groups is organized to perform in an area of primary concern to the national coalition; EOA - P ove rty; H o using Resources Committee - L ow Inco1ne Housing; C o mmunity Relations Commission - Civil Rights; CACUR Urban Redevelopment. The final Model Cities Executive B o ard - Technical A dv isory C o mmittee - Citizens Advisory Committee structure will provide for another coalition of individuals and groups designed to produce cooperative action in planning and implementing the M o del Cities Pr og ram . (Copies of proposed B o ard and C o mmittee Structure attached . ) It is readily apparent that no recognized local group is established for the specific purpose of developing employment opportunities for the poor . While a large part of EOA's program is designed to reduce unemployment and �Mayor Allen Page Three October 11, 1967 underemployment, no broadly-based organization currently exists which can function in a capacity which will bear the local responsibility for meeting the national Urban Coalition goal of one million jobs for the poor. (This was the first announced goal of the Urban Coalition. ) I believe, however, that a project in the works during the last eighteen months by the City of Atlanta, EOA, the C o mmunity C o uncil, Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and the Sears-R oe buck Foundation might have produced the mechanism for creation of a coalition on employment opportunities. This group has met informally at least once a month during this time in an effort to produce a color slide presentation on problems and opportunities for employment of the poor. The Sears-Roebuck F o undation financed the employment of a top advertising agency to assemble the materials and design the presentation under the supervision of the informal group. The presentation is now completed and Mr. Lucien Oliver of Sears will, in the next three or four weeks, invite a select g roup of key business executives to a luncheon to be exposed to this production. He is expected to ask each of these executives to sponsor luncheons for a wider group of businessmen in an effo rt to disseminate the informati on to as many firms as possible . The businessmen will also be encouraged to direct their personnel management to become better infor med on the problems of unemployment and underemployment among the poor and to investigate all possibilities for providing entry level jobs for additional employees who lack skills and training. �Mayor Allen Page Four October 11, 1967 This will fit perfectly into the scheme of the national coalition, which is encouraging the top executives of the large national firms to direct their plants throughout the country to do essentially the same thing. (There has already been some definite response to this program. I 'have had an indication from Sears and F o rd offices here that the word has already come from the top.) In view of the impending National Steering Committee C o nference on Employment here in November, I am encouraging the meeting of the first group by Mr. Oliver be held in advance of the Coalition. I believe this initial group should be considered as the local coalition and worked into the National Conference. I recommend that you ask Mr. Oliver to attend or send Dan Garies or B ob W o od to the October 17 all-day meeting on local coalitions in Chicago. I would also recommend that I attend as your representative and that you ask Vernon J o rdan to represent us in the area of Civil Rights. Vernon is on loan to the Urban C o alition staff and w ill be in attendance and is more aware of what is going on than any other individual from Atlanta. I also would hope that at a very early date we can show you the e mployment pr esentation and get your ideas on how we can provide follow-up.

The Urban Coalition I Federal Bar Building W est / 1819 H Street, N. w. Washington, D . C. / 20006 Steering Committee Co -chairmen : Andrew Heiskell / A. Philip Randolph October 7, 1967 Honorable Ivan Allen Mayor of the City of Atlanta City Hall Atlanta, Georgia Dear Ivan: Here are some comments and suggestions on some of the ideas we discussed in Atlanta. The establishment of a six-to-eight member committee to act as an organzing or steering committee is a very worthwhile approach. I suggest that leaders from business, labor, religion, and civil rights be invited to serve on the committee. You may wish to add representatives from other sectors of the community to the committee. This committee should be formed as soon as possible because, as you know, the Urban Coalition is holding a National Conference to discuss the formation of local coalitions in Chicago on October 17, 1967. It would be advantageous to have representatives from this committee attend. One of the initial actions the committee could take is to convene a meeting of 50 to 60 local business and labor leaders to consider the formation of a local task force on private employment. It is suggested that the format for the meeting be a luncheon followed by a two-hour working conference, To set the mieting in its proper perspective, the participants should hear from a nationally known business leader, preferably Gerald Phillippe of General Electric, co-chairman of our Task Force on Private Employment and Entrepeneurship. We would be happy to assist in obtaining a speaker for the occasion. The discussion at the working session should focus on the development of a local private employment task force and the establishment of working committees to (1) assess the local unemployment and underemployment problems, (2) develop programs with specific goals, and (3) issue evaluation reports on the progress of the programs. Staff personnel from the par ticipating companies would be assigned to perform the specific duties. Technical assistance and specialists should be used as needed .
