MONTEZUMA, GEORGIA



September 30,1966

Mayor Ivan Allen
City Hall
Atlanta, Georgia.

‘ Dear Sir:

Your recent statements over national television have created
such a resentment in me that I can not help but express to
you my utter contempt for such a statement. I happen to be
one of the half million white Georgians that you denounce

as being ignorant, irresponsible, full of bigotry and pre-
judice. I think such a statement from the Mayor of Atlanta
shows utter irresponsibility. you have done more damage to
the Democratic party and to the cause of the negro in Georgia
by such a statement than anything else.

If you really feel that Mr. Maddox is so unqualified to be
governor of Georgia I suggest you support Mr. Callaway as
governor unless you place all Republicans in the same catagory
as those referred to above. I can not help but make this ex-
pression to you direct.

~ LSM truly,

W. H. McKenzi ais
