October 14, 1975 The 544 Honorable Keith C. Warner North Barlow Street Clearfield, Dear UT 84015 Sir: I am a local pastor in the Ogden area with a congregation of approximately: 700 members. I am concerned about the action taken against the Ogden Area Community Action Agency on the basis of a discrimination charge as a criteria for cutting the funds. I am concerned because the action that has been taken has affected the entire commmity. Furthermore, the low income people are benefited by this program. It has been my understanding that the Community Action Agency program is designed to overcome poverty instead of creating poverty. I submit that this premature decision is against what the judicial process calls for - that a person or agency is innocent until proven guilty and it is my belief that you have a moral obligation to assist in releasing the funds until such charges are a ‘proven fact. As a concerned pastor in the commmity, I solicit your help in securing funds for Ogden Area Commumity Action Agency to continue with a well-balanced program to fight poverty and give our youth an opportunity to know a better life. Sincerely, LY FP ¢ al Rev. WD: pbs Lh f ; Willie v A / }i hs Pca Davis ‘
