Dear Mr. Sweat: Thank you for your letter of September 21, 1966, addressed to Mr. Bob Lynn, Extension Manager of East Central NSO Center, concerning traffic complaints in the Boulevard, N. E. (East Central) area. Because of our intense interest in these matters and the fact that we had no record of the complaints here at headquarters, I asked Mr. Lynn to send me a copy. There is enclosed a copy of his letter dated September 30, 1966 in response to that request. As you can observe from a perusal of the contents of this letter, there is still quite a bit of emotionalism involved in this situation which may or may not be shared by all or most of the r e sidents at this time. Consequently, it is difficult for me to maintain the objective approach that is necessary to obtain results, unless we are together on the basic facts. Please, therefore, compare the contents of Mr. Lynn's letter with your notes and advise me as to which of the complaints he refers to that the City might accept some responsibility for, even if there was no agreement upon, or understanding about them at the time of the conference. In view of the circumstanc e s, I would like to investigate those matters, if any , not agreed upon, so that complaints about them may be made to the proper agencies if they are found to be valid and soluble .

Sentencing of William James to Life | February 9, 1967 | The conviction of William Haywood James for the murder of Hulet Varner, Jr. is proof certain that all persons are equal before the law and subject to the demands of the law in the City of Atlanta, Georgia. On September Il, a few hours after the shooting of the youth, I reminded the people of this city that Atlanta's efforts which have been unexcelled by any other American city, to eliminate racial prejudice and insure the Negro citizen of equal rights and opportunity. This cannot be accomplished or carried out except under the authority of law and order; and that these two are inseparable, and neither can succeed without the other. This belief was put to ite highest test in this case. As a result, all citizens of Atlanta can stand a little straighter and sleep a little easier tonight. I am instructing the City Attorney to confer with Chief Jenkins regarding the disbursement of the $10,000. reward which led to the arrest and conviction of the murderer.  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

NEWS RELEASE from the ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TELEPHONE: 521-0845 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, representing the business community, deplores the recent senseless shooting of a Negro youth and calls upon _the entire community to cooperate with the Police Department in locating and bringing to justice the guilty party or parties. The Chamber Board abhors this act of violence in the same manner and to the same degree that it abhors the actions of irresponsible groups which led to earlier rioting last week . We appreciate and support the action of Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. in offering a reward of $10, 000 for the arrest and conviction of the guilty party or parties in the shooting. The Chamber Board also commends most highly the efforts of the Mayor throughout the recent disturbances . He has acted far beyond the call of duty, and at great personal risk, in meeting head-on the racial tensions of the past week with a tremendous amount of personal courage. The same commendations are extended to the entire Atlanta Police Department and the responsible leadership of the Atlanta Negro community. Our Police officers are to be praised for their calm and courageous handling of the situation. Atlanta's fine Negro leadership responded immediately when the incidents first were initiated last week, and has been largely responsible for preventing what could hav~n more serious outbreaks of violence. The Chamber Board urges all of Atlanta's citizens to act with utmost care and concern for all of its other citizens during this period, and further, that we continue to work together to correct our problems , effect improvement of unsatisfactory conditions within our community, and upgrade the opportunities of all of our citizens . � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
