May I acknowledge receipt of your telegram, I am enclosing
my veto message which I believe you will find self-explanatory.

I am also enclosing a small drawing which will prove to you
that you have been misled in believing that this would assist
in stopping Negro encroachment. On the other hand, it would
aggravate the encroachment which could immediately come right
on down Peyton Road, Study this carefully and you will find
that what I say is correct,

Again, I repeat that I will be glad to work with any group or
any individual at any time to retain the balance and security
of their present neighborhood,

Sincerely,

Ivan Allen, Jr.
