NEGROES RESENT COLOR LINE
In Mass Meeting Protest Against Be-

Washington, D. c., Nov. 16.-Mem-
bers of the delegation which went to
the White House last week with a
protest against race segregation in
government departments laid their
cases before a mass meeeing of negroes
here yesterday. The meeting adopted a
formal protest to the American people
against the pronounced tendency in
American law and public opinion to
draw the color line.
We make this appeal at this
time, said the statement, "because
it has been ascertained bv us from
the highest authority in the nation
that it is the policy of the Federal
government to draw the color line to
what the newspapers of the country
denominate and denounce as Jim
