RE: Meeting with Rennie Davis, National Mobilization
{As Per Your Request)
KARRATIVE:
I met with Mr. Davis at 10 p.m. at his office at 407 S. Dearborn,
June 16, 1968. Mr. Davis is the local co-ordinator for the
National Mobilization Committee to End the War. He was, as I
understand, responsible for helping organize the demonstrations
April 15, 1967 in New York City, where approximetely 250,000
people were present, and the dcronstrations at the Pentagon,
Washington D.C,, October 21, 1957. His cffices in Chicago are
responsible for orgarizing any activity that will-occur in the
City of Chicago sponsored by the National Mobilization Committee.
SUMMARY:
“Mr. Davis seemed a rather reasonable person who has evidently had
some experience in organizing large mass demonstrations but has‘
had no experience in organizing sustained demonstrations such as
the five day meeting he is now proposing. The things which he’
specifically requests are:
1. An opportunity to co-ordinate activities with the central city
adminstration which is responsible for Police activities around
the convention and throughout the city.
2. Permits to use local parks throughout the city to hold public
rallies on August 26th.
3. <A parade permit for August 28th.
4. A permit to use Soldier Field on the 29th of August, to provide
an d@liernative setting io Ure cuuveulion
