Black Mayors
Meet Top
Administration
Officials
Atlanta, Ga.-More than 40
of the Black Mayors from
across the South expressed
their needs and concerns
directly with top level officials
within the Administration in a
one-day White House briefing
held here.
“We want to open
communications lines with the
small town mayors whose voice
and needs often are not heard
or understood by policymaking
officials,” according to Stanley
S. Scott, Special Assistant to
the President.
Scott’s remarks were echoed
by a number of the Mayors in
attendance in their discussion
of pending legislation requiring
local cities to produce 10 per
cent matching funds for
Federal programs.
James Falk, Associate
Director of the White House
Domestic Council, told the
Mayors that the
Administration agrees with
them and is attempting to have
the matching funds provision
deleted.
Four assistant secretarys, the
Director of the Office of
Economic Opportunity, the
Administrator of the Rural
Development Service, and four
White House staff members
conducted the briefing. The
Regional Directors of agencies
of the Federal Government in
Atlanta were also in attendance
at the conference. They met on
a one-to-one basis with the
Black Mayors and responded to
direct questions.
, Some of the basic needs
outlined by the Mayors ran the
I spectrum from water and sewer
: projects, housing, jobs, to
s health, education, and welfare
1 programs.
1 Mayor A. J. Cooper of
' Pritchard, Alabama, Chairman
of the new Southern
* Conference of Black Mayors,
j- called the meeting “historic”.
He said Black officials,
particularly from small towns,
f have had trouble cutting
, through conventional red tape
to get needed funds for their
cities.
Mayor Cooper added, “A
pledge has been made to
redouble efforts to work with
Black Mayors in the South, and
we feel that positive efforts
will be made to cut some of
the red tape.”
Cooper pointed out that
“these men have already
produced for our cities before,
and we will have to judge them
on future production.”
Mayor Johnny Ford of
Tuskegee, Alabama, urged the
Black leaders to become
competitive for all Federal
funds. Ford said “Black leaders
must learn to play the game of
politics with whatever
Administration is in power.
The system can work and be
made to work; it’s just a matter
of penetrating it,” he added.
