Dear Mills,
Last week I wrote Ivan and congratulated him on his demonstration
of courage and convictions in the Almond-Capitol Avenue racial
incident. What he did served the purpose but his getting involved
again last night out on Boulevard I think is dangerous and fool-
hardy. If he should be killed in one of these racial demonstra-
tions I believe it will touch off a blood bath in Atlanta that
we haven't seen since the Battle of Atlanta 100 years ago. If
you agree with me please try to persuade him to let the Police
Department handle these matters.
We are really having a "long hot summer" in Atlanta where we had
such a wonderful image in racial matters. The prolonged strike
by the construction workers is also hurting our great city.
With kindest personal regards.
Ceo yours,
Vea
