Dear Mr. Coleman:

The traffic movement and accident prevention problems facing

our growing city demand the concern and active support of
Atlanta's business community. We are fortunate in Atlanta to
have an agency which represents the business community and works
closely with the city government and local officials in this
field. .

The A ta Traffic and Safety Council is of tremendous aid to
the-local nmen } + wand working with our

engineering, enforcement and educational branches to minimize
the loss of life and property and to improve the flow of people.

As Mayor of Atlanta and an ex-officio member of the Council's
Board of Directors, | am familiar with the value of this orgqa-
nization's work. | am also aware that the Council needs the
membership and support of a larqer segment of the business com-
munity if it is to be truly representative of the thinking of
our business leaders and if it is to expand its Important ac-
tivities,

To more fully acquaint you with the type of work the Council
carries out, | am enclosing a listing of some of the services
rendered by the Council to our community during the past year.
| hope you will take time to look these over,

You will be contacted about membership in the Atlanta Traffic
and Safety Council jn the near future, and | trust you will
give this careful consideration,

Sincerely,

Beans

Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor
