2600 PEACHTREE ROAD NORTHWEST ATLAS

THE ACTION OF PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE #1 RECOMMENDING CLOSING
PEYTON AND HARLAN ROADS HAS SHOCKED THE ENTIRE NEGRO COMMUNITY
AND MANY FAIR-MINDEOD WHITE CITIZENS OF ATLANTA, S&P NOTHING

IN THE HISTORY OF ATLANTA IS COMPARABLE TO SUCH ACTION PARTICULARLY
IN AN ERA OF WORLD WIDE CRISES SUCH AS WE ARE NOW UNDERGOING.
=P THE ATLANTA NEGRO VOTERS’ LEAGUE UNAMIOQUSLY AND UNEQUIVOCABLY
PROTESTS THE PASSAGE OF RECOMMENDED ORDINANCE, SRP THIS PROPOSED
ORDINANCE WOULD DENY BASIC CIVIL AND PROPERTY RIGHTS TO ALL
CITIZENS BOTH WHITE AND COLORED AND WOULD SET SUCH A PRESCEDENT
AS WOULD DESTROY THE FINE HUMAN RELATIONS THAT HAVE EXISTED
IN ATLANTA AND THAT HAVE MADE ATLANTA OUTSTANDING IN THE NATION,
STOP THIS ACTION COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT MANY VITAL MATTERS
