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

Dear Mayor Allen:

I was pleased to be invited to the Emergency Convoca-
tion: The Urban Coalition which met in Washington on
August 24. This was a stimulating meeting, and I con-
gratulate you and the other organizers on your plans

and the accomplishments of the day.

The agency which I serve is involved in metropolitan
life in many ways. Through our Department of Metro-
politan Missions, our Department of Christian Social
Ministries, and our departments which work with minor-
ity peoples, both Negroes and others, we are constantly

facing the needs of persons in the cities.

This con-

ference was of meaning to us, and I am sharing its

findings with our related staff members.

If I or any of my colleagues can ever be of help to
you and the City of Atlanta please feel free to call

upon use

As a citizen of this dynamic city let me express my
appreciation to you for the courageous and wise leader-
ship which you are providing. We are proud of Atlanta
and we feel that your responsible leadership is a credit

to this growing capital of the Southeast.

Sincerely yours,

wis By. J)
