IN REPLY REFER TO:

April 28, 1969

Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor of Atlanta
Atlanta, Georgia 30303

Dear Mayor Allen:

I wanted to be sure you have a copy of Secretary Romney's
statement on the Model Cities program. With this strong
Presidential endorsement you can be assured of all possible
support to your efforts to improve the quality of life of
your disadvantaged citizens.

The program improvements endorsed by President Nixon
should make our joint efforts more effective. Represen-
tatives of our Regional Offices will be working with you
and your CDA staff to make sure that your city's program
takes full advantage of these new program approaches.

Sincerely,

Welfo(:'

Director
