Box 17, Folder 11, Document 110

I talked with Dr. Borders, and he is going to have Col. Walden call
you and invite you to this meeting about 5:30. . .itis at the Westwide
YMCA, which is off of Hunter on the corner of Olly Street and Lena,

and directly across from the Washington playground.

The crowd will have already been there, and Dr,
Borders wants you to bring out the following points:
1. This has been successfully handled in 51 instances
to the major displeasure of white people.
2. You had contacted Bickers with the request
that he offer you some type of solution to be problem
before it came toa head, . .he never offered any
solution,
3. Bring out the point about Gene Bennett and what
he did in bidding up the price of his land.
4, There are only four Negro families affected by
this and this change will open up 2 to 300 acres of land
what no one can use at this time for Negro housing.
Ivan: Since your time will be running closely, I would like to go with you so
you can fill me in on the way to the airport and plan any statement which you
may want released tomorrow. . . .(Dr. Poer will meet you at the airport

if you wish, )
