Dear Mr. Mayor:

The Atlanta NAACP takes note of the fact that there will
soon be two vacancies on the Metropolitan Rapid Transit Autho-
rity. It is our feeling that many of the problems that the
Authority has had in generating support in the black community
can be traced to inadequate representation of the black
community in the process of formulating the plans for a much
needed Rapid Transit System in the Atlanta area.

It is our hope that you will take advantage of the up-
coming vacancies to increase the participation of the black
community at the policy-making and plan-making level.

As always the NAACP stands ready to assist you in your
efforts to assure continued growth of the city of Atlanta.

Sincerely yours,



Lonnie C. King, Jr.
President
Atlanta Branch NAACP
