Dear Mayor:

I wish to thank you and to congratulate you upon one of
the most courageous, constructive, and intelligent statements,
that have been made touching the Public Accommodations feature
of the President's Civil Rights Bill.

Freedom-loving citizens over the entire country are ap-
plauding you, without regard to race or creed and as a minister
of the Gospel for more than Fifty Years, it is my earnest prayer
that your continued role in governmental affairs, might be cor-
respondingly exemplary and admirable,

Again congratulating you, and wishing you long life and
happiness, I beg to remain,

With great respect,

Obediently yo





Sherman L. Green .
