A written representation of a document.
Jamestown,Alabama
August-9 I963.
Hon. Mayor Ivan Allen
Atlanta,Ga.
My dear Sir:
I,of course,did not hear you testify before that committee in
Washington the other day,but I heard it announced on television,
and saw it in the papers,and I am just writing to you,to let you know
that I heartily and fully endorse your stand on this subject.
I now tha t there is nothing much tha t a man of no note,as I am
can do to assist in the se efforts,but I hope t o encourage you and
others who are in a position to be heard,to put forth every effort to
accomplish in our day,at least a part of the thi ngs,which is making a
start on all the things,which as I s ee it, ar e so long past due.
To me,the color of a person's s kin,has nothing to do with his
usefulnes s in accomplishing the things that always have,and still do,
lie ahead of the human race to accomplish,and _it appears to me ,that
the Creator had a purpose and use for all the peoples of his creation
to,or in order to accomplish whatever he had in mind for the human race
accomplish , s o that we may all en joy the greatest happiness.
And from my position,it appears t hat the sooner we humans of a ll
races and colors can realize these things,and stop acting like that we
thing our Creator made a mistake becaus e he made somebody else with a lighter
or darker color than we are,and accept all creation just as it is,and
get busy,by putting all our efforts togeather to accomplish the good things
that will benefit all colors alike ~which pl an , so far as I know ,has n ever
been tried ~ , ) From my position,it appears to me,we mi ght have some
reason't°expect that greater accomplishments and benef its that have been
with-held from mankind because of our attitude toward our Creator 's
handiwork of different peopl es , mi ght soon beg in to appenr , with a peac e
and prosperity that has never befor e been knovm to the world , so t hat
happine s s might abound through-out the Earth,and maybe it would be a step
in t he direction of ever ybody having plenty and to spare,and un-afraid!
Otherwise,it seems to me that we may expec t to keep having t o put
up with such things as we have been,until such time as some future
generation see~ fit to take advantage of the chance that now confronts
us, and reap s the better benefits , which are no·w open to us.
Hoping my long letter has not tried your patience,and that it will
be no hindennce to you in your undertakings,as mayor of the great city
of Atlanta.
Your friend J . H.Carter

Mayor Ivan Allen
City Hall
Atlanta, Ge9rgia
Dear Sir:
A few weeks ago, I read in the papers and saw on television,
your testimony before the Senate Committee on Civil Rights
Legisla cion. Before that day, I had never heard of Mayor Ivan
Allen but after that day was overi I had gained respect and
admirajnon for a person who I fee has great courage.
For a person fr om the south to say that Congress should act
in the public acconnnodations f ield took great courage. It
even becomes more of a courageous act when it is so obvious
that it is political expedience to be against all 6ivil Rights
Legislation.
I'm sure the segregationists and racists have given you a hard
time for your words. But for this fellow American, you did
something that will long be remembered by· people who believe
in equality of all groups.
If you receive other letters of congradulations from this area 1
it is because I bave been constantly sounding off about your
impressive words. It is the least we can do for a person who
has furthered the cause of equality.
Here 's hoping you get re-elected to the year 2000.
Yours very truly,
UvLJ

City of Atlanta
A}l anta, Georgi a
Dear Mr. Allen:
Mrs. Beiswanger and I moved in June from Milledgeville , where both of us wer e teaching in the Woman's
College , to t he Af.lanta area. I am teachi ng in the
philosophy depart ment of Georgia Stat e Colle ge.
Though our actual r esidence, as you see, is in
Decatur, we are thrilled to be in Atlanta. It is such
a beautiful city . We had been in and out of it many
t imes , but now we ar e really getting to know it .
I had intended to wri t e you s ooner because of
t he stand you took on the Civil Ri ghts proposals now
before t he Congress. Your positi on, as I see it, i s
both r i ght and sound .
One of t he reasons we took into f ull acp unt when
deciding to come to AUant a was i t s sensi ble way .of
dealing with the racial problem. We took pride in that
in before we came , and hope we can cont inue t o feel
good about the city in this respect, despit e the set
backs from time to time, and the obstinate.
Among swnmer explorations here, we took in the
Shakespeare productions of the Academy Theatre, expecting little and discovering much. Also we are finding
the art gall eries quite exciting on the whole. And it
is such a pleasure to be in a city built in a forest.
Our appreciation for all you are doing as mayor
and civic leader.

One of the reasons we took into full acount when

Among summer explorations here, we took in the

Dear Mayor Allen:
Please accept my most sincere and hearty congratulations
on the brilliance, clarity, and meaning of your July 26th
statement to the Senate Connnerce Committee.
Among all the millions of words that have been spoken and
written on both sides of the segregation-integration issue , your statement stands out as a model of integrity
and as a rare example of what the United States of America really represents.
I feel certain that millions of others throughout this
nation, no matter what their racial, ethnic, or religious
backgrounds, join me in extending genuine gratitude for
your statement.
Several years ago, I had the good fortune to spend some
time in Atlanta. I found it a beautiful, energetic, and
thoroughly gracious city. I do not know if you were mayor
at that time , but I am certain that your administration
has helped to make Atlanta a still finer city.
I send you my best wishes for continued success and my
hopes that your civic career will prosper. Your statement marks you as one of an all too rare breed of public official. Would that we had more like you.
With respect and gratitude,
Jess Lowen

Dear Mayor Allen:
I am a student at the University of Chicago and I
also visit fre-vently in New York City. Away from home,
I often meet people very interested in the racial situa-

Atlanta and I am able to compare Atlanta's progress in
social justice favorably with most northern cities. I
am proud that the names Hartsfield and McGill are those
most often associated with Atlanta by non southerners.
Your brilliant testimony before the Senate Commerce

Your contribution to the cause of human rights was inestim-
able and I am certain it will earn you national esteem equal
to other great Atlantans. For myself I am enormously pleased
that you chose to commit yourself so unequivocally on this
important issue.
Under your leadership, Atlanta's future is bright.

Dear Mr. Mayor:
The television news reports and the newspaper
accounts of your appearance before the Senate
commi t t ee on the civil rights issue left me proud
of the city of my b i rth tonight.
Don't let the "junior" on my name fool you; I was
a r eporte r for the old Georgian-American when Bill
Ha r tsfie l d was a young alderman in 1926. I followed
his act i ons in preventing racial discord when he
was ma y or , and liked the way he handled ma tters.
Now you have proved more than a worthy successor,
in my view; you 've gone a step f urther, a long step .
Economic integration cannot b e withheld any long e r.
I t is inevitable ; it mus t come. Soeial integration
is an other ma t t er. We have no choi ce on the
f ormer; we do ha ve a choi ce on the latter.
This is one of the key a r eas of reas oning, in my
view. I f i t has been us ed i n t reating with t he
die hards, it has not been so rep orted in the
press of the North, where I have lived most · of
my adult years. It may be worth considering as we
painfully creep toward giving the Neg ro his long
overdue due. It may possibly be an argument to
use in hastening the day of equal economic rights
and treatment.

Dear Mr, Mayor:
The television news reports and the newspaper
accounts of your appearance before the Senate
committee on the civil rights issue left me proud
of the city of my birth tonight.
Don't let the "junior" on my name fool you; I was
a reporter for the old Georgian-American when Bill
Hartsfield was a young alderman in 1926, I followed
his actions in preventing racial discord when he
was mayor, and liked the way he handled matters,
Now you have proved more than a worthy successor,
in my view; you've gone a step further, a long step,
Economic integration cannot be withheld any longer.
It is inevitable; it must come, Social integration
is another matter, We have no choice on the
former; we do have a choice on the latter,
This is one of the key areas of reasoning, in my
view. If it has been used in treating with the
die hards, it has not been so reported in the
press of the North, where I have lived most of
my adult years. It may be worth considering as we
painfully creep toward giving the Negro his long
overdue due, It may possibly be an argument to
use in hastening the day of equal economic rights

I wish to congratulate you and thank you
for your historic statement yesterday to the Senate Commerce
Committee. The New York Times which I read published your
complete statement which I intend to frame as a truly important
historic document.
I wish to thank you for your courage, integrity
and breadth of vision and for your commonsense and deep humanity.
I hope some day that you are elected to the U. S. Senate.
Again, my deepest thanks to you for your
truly great statement and for the magnificent job you and your
colleagues have done for decency and humanity in Atlanta,
Yours sincerely,
- ; .

Dear Mayor:
I wish to eJ...-press my hearty approva1 of your
stand before the Senatoria1 Committee in Washington as
reported in this afternoon• s Journal .
I think it took courage to adopt the course you
did in face of the f~ct that all our representatives in
government affairs took the opposite stand.
Som3 adjustments can be made in the proposed
law that will do no injustice to any one conceradd, but
this note is principally to felicitate you on what we call
intestinal fortitude to stand up for your convictions.
Meanwhile, I hope you be as active in supporting
the present administration and the reelection of the President .
Sincerely,
Mayor Ivan Allen Jr.,
