Breaand Re: Cevil Rights September 30, 1947. the Cover Dear Mrs. Brevard: I have your letter of September 15th, addressed to the President, in which you tell him of the trouble you are having in finding a place to live. Housing is short for everyone and when discrimination is practiced, it makes it doubly hard. The President believes very strongly in equal rights and opportunities for everyone. In order to help as many people as possible, he created a Committee on Civil Rights. I am sending you a copy of the order creating that Committee, so that you will know for yourself how he feels. Cordially, DAVID K. NILES Administrative Assistant to the President Mrs. Kenneth Brevard, 47 Grace Street, Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Suly
