The Honorable Mayor Ivan Allen Jr.
City Hall
Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mayor Allen:

Mr. Bob Sommerville, President of the Atlanta Transit Company, talked
to the North side Kiwanis Club this noon. He presented to the member-
ship an interim program for the moving of mass transportation. I am
certain that you are familiar with this program so I will not go into
the details, but I believe it has a great deal of merit.

It's advantages are costs, time to place in operation, and it's flex-
ibility. The bus as a complete unit gives this method quick mobility
on or off the rapid express route.

T believe that if we could give this a good trial that it might result
in something revolutionary in the rapid transit program.

I would like to go on record as endorsing this program to you and
offering any assistance to initiate it.

Sinéérely,

2
