Mayor of the City of Atlanta

Dear Mayor Allen;

United Church Women of Atlanta met at Covenant Presbyterian Church

on Friday, September 9th, for a workshop. It was unanimously agreed
that we should write commending you for the Christian courage you
displayed in going to the scene in Summerhill last Tuesday, September 6.

It made us all feel very proud and secure that we have a mayor of your
calibre. We want you to know that we are praying that God may bless and
guide you.

Enclosed is a program that will indicate some of the ways in which we are
working to alleviate conditions in the troubled areas of our city..

With all good wishes,

Very sincerely yours,
