Dear Mayor Allen:

Permit me to join with your other many friends and
admirers in complimenting you upon the leadership
you so courageously demonstrated during the rioting
on Tuesday, September 6, 1966. Without doubt your
patience and forbearance, coupled with firmness and
insistence upon law and order, prevented a more
serious situation.

I'm sure your fellow city officials over Georgia were
equally impressed with your composure and dedication

to duty.
Sincerely,
Ciner
W. Elmer George
