RECEIVED

Nov. 13, 1913

The President,
Washington.

Sir:-

The segregation policy being pressed by this administra-
tion is the first act that has disturbed my confidence in your
administration. Few are equal to every emergency, and sooner or
later we meet a circumstance that takes our measure. I an sorry,
however, that it should come so early in your administration for
it may have far reaching results in limiting the usefulness of an
administration which has started out so auspiciously.

Yours very truly,

R. J. Caldwell
