lawmakers that the Federal Govern
ment should pay the $l3,U0.0o0 debt

tween the two States which grew out
Of their separation during civil war
times. 1t Is now UP to West Virginia
to pay. and interest runs along II she
doesn't pay.
Congressman Moss, Of the debt-burd-
ened State, says he will ask the United
States Government to assume the claim
and Senator Chiffon will offer a similar
bill in the Senate.

this Judgment" asserts MIR. Moss. The
separation Of West Virginia from Vir.
ginia was a war measure and wal
necessary to help preserve the Unior
