Long Standing Case
Is Decided
WEST VA. CAN PAY
STATE DEBT, CREATED BEFORE
A PARTITION WAS MADE, MUST
BE SHARED BY BOTH CON- N
MoNWEALTHS

thy Associated Press.l
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE su-
preme court of the United States has
decided the long-standing Virginia,
West Virginia debt case, holding that
West Virginia should pay $12,393,929
as its net share of the Virginia debt
at the time of the partition of the
states. The controversy between Vir-
ginia and West Virginia over the pay
ment of the old state debt in exis-
tence at the time of the separation
of West Virginia in 1868. has been
one of the most prolonged ever before
the supreme court The court for
years delayed entering a final judg-
ment in hopes of an amicable adjust
ment of the dispute.
Before the separation OF West Vir-
ginia from Virginia, Virginia had a
state debt of $33.0OO,000 incurred
mainly as the result of an ambitious
scheme to provide canal and slack
water navigation along the courses
of the st. James and Kanawha rivers.
with the hope of making a navigable
waterway from Richmond to the Ohio
and Mississippi; an elaborate project
of macadamized roads; then of rail-
roading.
In 1906 the commonwealth of Vir-
ginia asked and gained the permis-
sion Of the supreme court to bring
suit before that tribunal to compel
West Virginia to pay an equitable
share of the debt, acting partly. 1t has
been said. at the instance of holders
of bonds Virginia had issued to cover
the Indebtedness.
