is candidate for the Democratic nomi-
nation for the same office.
Both men are capable and we'll
known. Both are Berkeley county
products and proud of it. Both would
be creditable nominees of the two great
parties.
Every eligible voter in Berkeley,
Morgan and Jefferson counties should
turn out at the primary Tuesday and
vote for one of these two men. If this
section turns out in force, both Mr.
Bowers and Mr.. Seibert are quite GER
tain to be nominated. And if they are
nominated. one of them is sure to be
elected and the Eastern Panhandle will
continue to have direct representation
in Congress-
AS a matter of pride, as a matter of
selfish interest and just to be neighbor-
", make it point to vote Tuesday
Your vote that day in the primary is
more important than your vote in the
fall election. Messrs. Bowers and Sci
bert should win the nomination of their
respective parties by the hearty vote
they receive "back home" on Tuesday.

The Journal has consistently urged
its readers to give their full support to
local men who were candidates for state
or national offices regardless of the po-
litical affiliation of the candidate.
We have gone on the theory that this
section of the state produces equally as
good or better men than any other sec
ton and that local man can and will
Go more for the people of our own com
munlty than would some total stranger
from the western part of the state.
We can take a certain amount of
pride, too, from the knowledge that we
are doing neighborly act in helping
our friends attain their ambition.
At the primary Tuesday we will have
an opportunity to vote either the Re
publican Or Democratic ticket accord
ing to our party affiliation. And in
each instance we can give our vote to
neighbor-to man from the old home
town. Hon. George NJ. Bowers, pres
ent congressman from this district. is a
candidate for the Republican nomina-
ton to succeed himself. And Hon.

SHARP WARP ARE MAY

IN NEW YORK TUESDAY
Rail Heads Already Starting

(By international News servlcel

Icy International News servlce.)
New York. July 29.-The impress
sion grew in eastern railway cir
cles today that the meeting here
Tuesday of the las railway presi-
dents Of the United States called
to consider President Hardings
chop strike, will develope sharp
peace plan for settlement of thu
warfare between peace and war
factions
Reports reaching the office of
John G. Walber, chief of the intel
ligence department" of the associ-
alton Of eastern railway execu-
tives, are far more warlike than

One general manager Of a big
eastern system, threatened TO re-
sign with practically his entire sup
ervisory staff, If his road agrees TO
the Harding peace plan, which is
considered q surrender by the rail
roads.
Listening Post
Walbers department is the clear
ing house of all statistical argu.
ment intended for presentation to
the federal railway board in the
various wage controve rsies; it is a
listening post in the railway.
Walber declares that nothing has
come to his ear since the publca
ton Of the Presidents peace pro
posals TO indicate that the big east.
ern chiefs are any more inclined
to compromise on the seniority
question today than they were a
week age, before President Hard
ing intervened.

which has been made public pre-.
supposes, in the fret place, that
the railroads can re-absorb all who
walked out and at the same time
retain the new men taken on, oval.
Der said today. There is not
enough shop work to permit this.
And I know that during the past
few days railway managers on
many roads have personally or by
deputy renewed their pledges to
the men in the shops that their
Jobs are secure, that they have
been taken on on a permanent ba-
sis.
THE proposal Of rehearing by
the labor board is opposed because
voluntary rehearing by the board
arouses an idea in the minds of the
strikers that the board viii do
something better for them. If the
new decision is not an Improvement

$4,000 shopmen now on the rail
way payroll whose interests are at
stake"
The statement involving as it
does, tacit opposition to the Presi-
