WOULD STOP NEGROES
FROM LEAVING STATE
Colorcd Citizens Ask Aid From Cham
Der of Commerce in Establishing
Bureau in Richmond.

In an effort to prevent negroes from
leaving Richmond and Virginia to ac-
lcept positions in the North, infiuen-
tial colored residents of this city,
headed by Giles b. Jackson. are ad-
Ivocating the establishment of a bu-
reau to be under the supervision of
the department of labor.
A committee of Richmond negroes.
with jackson as chairman. yesterday
held a conference with the executive
committee of the chamber of com
merce, seeking the members Coop
GRAFTON in this movement. They also
asked the executive committee to as
sist them in securing mobilization
camp for negroes in Virginia. They
point out the fact that should a camp
for colored soldiers be established in
the South. Virginia is the logical place
for it's location. They point out that
the people in the Old Dominion know
the negro better than those in most
Southern states and they know better
how to handle them to obtain the
best results Then some stress is be-
ing laid on the climatic conditions,
which, they claim. agree with the ne
groes.
jackson and members OF the COM
mittee declare that If they secure this
bureau they will not only put stop
Ito the wholesale raids on the negroes
of this state, but will go North and
bring back to the South many who
have already taken their departure.
President Coleman Workman, of the
chamber of commerce, agreed to APP
point a committee. and the names
will be given out within the next few
days. They will cooperate with this
colored committee and will not only
use their influence for the establish
ment of such a bureau as is suggested,
but viii aid them in procuring a
mobilization camp in Virginia for
the negro tr0ops
