Dear George:

I guess I'll always *hink of you as very nice.
The enclosed let*er, *o *he Mayor, is a sor* of 1i**le
personal s*raigh* *alk - in my own fashion - which is open-
book, self enterprising and liber*y loving. Amen. You can
tear i* up - or le* *he Mayor cuss, reading i*.
We have been bugged by several members of Black Power.
Since I'm alone in *he shop often - ‘hey s*alk in - wnt *he
res* room - jobs (ha, *ha*'s a lavgh) or hats = none of which
we have +o offer, *hank *he Lord. BUT if we did have a private
res* room i* would no* be open *o *he public. I have civil
rights +00. Insis* *ha* I do! And intend *o stand up for ‘em.
I can poin* ou* *he *hree nigras who *ore up my Mamma's li**le
*alisman s*ta*ue - with an iron pipe. No use ‘pying *O pro=
secute *hem because its a disadvan*age *o be white these days -
white people have *axa*ion without represen*ation. Big money
keeps being paid ou*+ *0 hush *l blackmailers *hrea*ening riots.
Tax money - you see? And somehow this riles me. I* red ly does.
I *hink lots of people are g+*ing riled with the imbalance. Nav
I have *old Nick I intend +o s*ubbornly stay in hosliebads. I ray
like a challenge. I jus* *ake a stand and intend *o back i+ -
with my life if necessary. I*s *he principle of “he *hing.

I called *he Police Depar*men* *o ask abou* Grim prevention.
Wha* should a bea*-up, skinny 61 year old female do when threatenal
"Pu* ina buzzer" I was *old. "Call +he Police"- I was ‘ola?

And stand by while rioters raise hell? Not me. I'm *o*in' a

Gol+ = 32. I coulan'* swat a fly but I could mess up wild dogs.

Senaton Richard Russell
Waskingion, D.C.

Dean Sins

Aa a taxpayer, citizen and merchant in the free enterprise
ayeten of this country, I would Like to inform you of exiating
conditions in this city, And since you are a representative of
the people and in a position to clarify the underlying cincun=
atances uhich I am about to relay to your I call this to your
atientions

1) An oaganization exists in Atlanta called the
of the S.C.L.C. Operation Breadbasket wil call
on. merchants primarily with business in Nezave
areas, interview Negroe enployees without pernic~
sion of the owner and question the owner about
peasonad finanelal conditions,

2.) The aepresentative of the aforenentioned graup
proceeds to threaten the ouner that if certain
conditions are not adhered to, his place of bus-
dness will be picketed and boycotted,

Sn) Moat of these independenta are one (1) atone
ounens with solely Negroe employees, the
main thaect of this group ds that a woman
Negroe cashier must aloo be employed with hours
and wages stinulated by the organization. This
tyne of intimiclation cannod exist ina free, enw
terprising countay ab curse These conditions
bring back memories of Naziom and mone recently
Mafia tactics ome reads about.

I beg and implore you 4o inform me if there are any exiating
daus (federal, state, on tocal) io protect the independent merchant
fron thia type of persecution, tlnat of these businesses ane not
dn a podition to compdy with auch outrageous demande.

ALL of us are trying to a6 hand as possible support the
Economic Opportunity Program and all other docsd, state, and fed=
erad organizations of the aaid type by hining sodely Negroes
and aa many, ad our businesses can absorb. What mone can we do?

Tt anxiiously avait reply and sincerely hope you wilt find
the dime 40 investigate this problen which has become a traumatic

experience fon all the independent merchants uhose majarity of
drade are the Negroes.

Sincerely yours,

Dear I van:
I want to congratulate you on your refusal to obey .the demands
made at the whim of the self-appointed Negro leader in the
Kirkwood district, who claims to be a preacher, to wit, Hosea
Williams. He has never been elected by the people to any office.
You are the Mayor of Atlanta. If there is any discrepancy in
street work, garbage collection, or sewage disposal you have
the heads of departments whose duty it is to investigate these
matters and in the proper time, correct them.
When Hosea Williams refuses to show the heads of city departments
the reasons behind his complaints he is acting in a highly
capricious and dictorial manner .
I phoned your office once before and requested that you be told
that it was my opinion that you made a mistake every time
you went to a Negr o mass meeting which is organized for the
purpose of stating their wrath against the c ity government for
any reason.
Any citizen should know to go to . the City Hall to make his
complaint and I think it humiliates you and your office
when you go to a Negro YMCA, church, or school to talk to
Negro or white people or Israeli, Arabs, or Egyptians about
their dissatisfaction with the performance of some he ad of
department in their community. You merely expose yourself
to some smart-aleck Negro who gets up and makes a firey
speech condemning y ou and the administration of the city
government, and at such a meeting common sense and good judgment are thrown out the window.
Ivan, I was raised on the other side of the tracks, with Negroes.
I have known them for over seventy years. The more you give
them, the more they demand. There is no end to their wanting.
�Mayor Ivan Allen
June 27, 1967

At one time they would ask, but now they simply demand or
else threaten the government.
The Police Department is organized to handle these young
hoodlums, and it is a mistake for you to expose yourself
to these organized riots.
I once worked for the Sanitary Department; so did my father
and my grandfather. Atlantal s Sanitary Department has
continued, and today is giving the best service that Atlanta
has received in my lifetime, and I wasn't born yesterday.
With personal regards.

Dear Ivan:

I want to congratulate you on your refusal to obey the demands
made at the whim of the self-appointed Negro leader in the
Kirkwood district, who claims to be a preacher, to wit, Hosea
Williams. He has never been elected by the people to any office.
You are the Mayor of Atlanta. If there is any discrepancy in
street work, garbage collection, or sewage disposal you have

the heads of departments whose duty it is to investigate these
matters and in the proper time, correct them.

When Hosea Williams refuses to show the heads of city departments
the reasons behind his complaints he is acting in a highly
capricious and dictorial manner.

I phoned your office once before and requested that you be told
that it was my opinion that you made a mistake every time

you went to a Negro mass meeting which is organized for the
purpose of stating their wrath against the city government for
any reason,

Any citizen should know to go to the City Hall to make his
complaint and I think it humiliates you and your office

when you go to a Negro YMCA, church, or school to talk to
Negro or white people or Israeli, Arabs, or Egyptians about
their dissatisfaction with the performance of some head of
department in their community. You merely expose yourself

to some smart-aleck Negro who gets up and makes a firey
speech condemning you and the administration of the city
government, and at such a meeting common sense and good judg-
ment are thrown out the window.

Ivan, I was raised on the other side of the tracks, with Negroes.
I have known them for over seventy years. The more you give
them, the more they demand. There is no end to their wanting.

In reply to your kind letter of June 25th, I think. you
put the cart befor the horse. The Negro citizen
earned and deserved full American citizenship
many years ago. The fact that he has been denied
these rights and privileges through the years is the
reason for our problems today.
It is not going to be easy to correct the mi takes of
the past hundred years, but some how or other. we
will do it.
Sincerely your ,
Ivan Allen, Jr.

Dear MaYor Allen:

It

the Negro all he a sks for and more besi des, overleoked the simple
nature that when privileges are ·extended that are not earned whether,
Negro, white, children or soldieBs their demands are never sat i ated.
Children learn early in life that a little yelling get s one thing and
its repe~etion gets more s o, that is what you have today: the old spoiled
child telni que. All of us respect authority th at remains firm and never
deviates.
-
Here is August a, we have been free of such ai d mehy are smug in t he
feeling it won ' t happen here however , I contend things could erupt over
night should the proper agitator appear on t he scene.
I am sorry that y our chickens of appeasment have cane home to roost.

411 of us here in the State of Georgia regret the events
that have occured in your City especially when you were one of the avant

It is a pity that those who heve been the leaders in this movement
to give the Negro all he asks for and more besides, overlaoked the simple
fect of neture thet when privileges are extended that are not earned whether,
they be Negro, white, children or soldiezs their demends ere never satiated.

Children learn early in life that a little yelling gets one thing md
its repebetion gets more so, thet is what you have today: the old spoiled
child tecnique. All of us respect authority that remains firm end never
deviates. ie

Here is Augusta, we have been free of such md mehy ere smug in the
feeling it won't happen here however, I contend things could erupt over
night should the proper agitator appear on the scene.

I em sorry that your chéckens of appeasment have come home to roost.

never had any Negroes se e king to use it ) and the Health Club w as $1 0 0.
He further said that McCann was t h e first Negro to ever appea r at this

He said t hey explained t o Mr . McCain that all YMCA cards offer

MEMORANDUM
TO : IATr.
FROM : AM

As a result of the wire from Lester McCann, in which he outlined
the circumstances when he was refused admittance to the Haalth
Club of the Downtown, YMCA, I talked with Mr. Joseph Bransby,
who furnished the following information.

He said that the Downtown Y was 85% integrated, but that the Health
Club and swimming pool had not been, He said that they were honest
will all people in telling them that it was against their policy to

admit negroes to these two areas, The Executive Committee was
meeting Tuesday afternoon (6/20) to discuss policy on these two
sensitive areas, He advised that the General Membership dues are
$50.00 a year, which includes the swimming pool (although they have
never had any Negroes seeking to use it) and the Health Club was $100.

He further said that McCann was the first Negro to ever appear at this
club with a membership card from another club (Hollywood, Calif, )
He said they explained to Mr, McCain that all YMCA cards offer
recipical facilities based on local practices, and that the health club
was not open to Negroes,

He said they received a call from S NICK on Tuesday, and had set up
an appointment Wednesday afternoon to discuss this with SNICK and Mr.
McCann, and they never showed up,

He also said he would advise this office of any decisions made Tuesday
by the Metropolitan Executive Committee, Jefferson Davis, Chairman,

entire family of the Perry Homes Housing Project
in Atlanta. Death occured Thursday, bodies were
discovered Saturday.
The victims were Mrs. Josie Marie Callier, a
daughter age 9 and two sons, ages 6 and 7. We have
reports of possible negligence on the part of the
Atlanta Housing Authority. We have reports that
there have been at least 4 other incidents of a
faulty gas system causing deaths of tenants. Including one case where one victim reported a faulty gas
condition in his apartment, before he became a fatal
victim.
Very truly yours,
