The Iowa State Highway Commission Page 3 Advancement of Colored People respectfully urge the Iowa State Highway Commission to reject the proposed re-routing of the Highway #61 through the city of Fort Madison, Iowa. It is the feeling of the Association that the proposed action is unconstitutional and illegal and all efforts will be taken to block the implementation of the project if such is approved. It is with hope that further action will not be necessitated and tht equal protection of the laws will be accorded to all persons, irrespective of their color or ancestry, that I remain Yours very truly, [[signature]]James I. Meyerson James I. Meyerson Assistant General Counsel N.A.A.C.P. - 1790 Broadway New York, New York 10019 (212) 245-2100
