September 7, 1966

I would like to add my thanks for the outstanding job which
you did last night in frustrating the so-called riot put on
by agent provocateurs. It is apparent that a strenuous
effort was made to inflame the race issue in order to in-

fluence the upcoming primary.

Very warm personal regards.
