- 2 - The school matter, although important, I will put aside for an instant because I believe that it is correctible if panic selling and swift neighborhood change is prevented. This could be done by developing some system which would guarantee maintenance of property values from external psychological factors which might include the building of a highway through the neighborhood a change in zoning or a rapid change in the number of houses sold in any given period of time. This is a rough statement of the idea, but it would seem to me that if stabilizing forces were built into this situation, a great deal of the heat and venom that presently exists would disappear and at the same time these neighborhoods would become more attractive to whites who have no objection to living with Negroes provided that they are not required to pay a financial penalty for the privilege. This is a purely background memorandum for such use as you may care to put it to. Albhant Hobart Taylor, Jr.
