1960-1969
Atlanta's outgoing Mayor Ivan Allen Jr. predicted that no major candidates, business-backed or Negro, will emerge to succeed him and named Vice Mayor Sam Massell, Alderman Rodney Cook, Alderman Everett Millican, Alderman Milton Farris, Alderman Cecil Turner, and former U.S. Rep. Charles L. Weltner as probable candidates, while stressing the need for Atlanta's White leadership to recognize it will have to deal with Black leaders in the future and that race will continue to dominate city government issues. 1 page.
