Dear Johns
ThanX you for joining Harry Hood Bassett, Dan B. Ruskin,
Billy Gaither and the other top community leaders who met
at the Miami Herald on Monday, January 16th, to plan the
15th Annual Brotherhood Dinner of the Florida Region of
the National Conference of Christians and Jews.
The enthusiastic discussion and response, both here and
at the general dinner committee meeting the following day,
makes our goal of $75,000 for the February 2l8t, 1967
Dinner at the Fontainebleau, most realistic.
Although none of us made formal commitments on Monday,
we feel that the pledge of our support was implicit.
Please join us in setting the pace for the Dinner, honor*
ing Sidney D. Ansin, Joseph M. Fitzgerald, Mayor Robert
Xing High and Sister Dorothy, by sending in your own table
reservations now.
Those individuals or firms who buy one or more tables will
be listed as 1967 "Builders of Brotherhood". We are cer¬
tain you will want to be a member of this significant cate¬
gory.
Z feel that the selection of Whitney Young, national Bxecu
tive Director of the Urban League, as our principal speaker
is most fortunate. And, you will be pleased to learn that
Dan has pledged to follow Hood9s example in adjourning the
Dinner on February 2l8t, prior to i0s30 P.M.
Cordially,
JSX/jc
John S. Knight
