From William D. Jones

Jones, a student at Miles College in Birmingham, sends a telegram to King announcing his participation in Montgomery’s Prayer and Pilgrimage Day. The MIA designated 24 February as a day for car owners and carpoolers to walk to work in solidarity with those protesters who walked every day.
