Department of Housing and
Urban Development

Washington, D.C.

Dear Secretary:

Urge that you reconsider selection of 12 instead
of 15 cities for experimental, low-cost public housing
so as to include Atlanta, Georgia, which is particularly
well-prepared for and in need of such a project.

Low-cost public housing has been aggressively
sought and supported by Atlanta and I ask that you include
Atlanta in this program.

Yours very truly,

FLETCHER THOMPSON
Member of Congress
