… young white women and colored women were working together side by side and opposite each other. At one end of the machine would be a young white girl and opposite a colored girl. … I feel sure that this must go against the grain of the white women. Is there any reason why the white women should not have only white women working across from them on the machines? And is there any reason why the white women and colored women should not be to some extent segregated?

I think it would be best for this Department if you should make arrangements by which white and colored employees of this Department shall use different toilet rooms. Please arrange accordingly.
