tor, one thereof shall be selected by the claimant or claimants, or
his or their agents, and the two thus selected shall select the
remaining member of said committee; provided, however, that
no person shall be so selected, or if selected, shall be competent
to serve as a member of any committee of arbitration, who shall

receipt together with said award signed and sealed by said com-
mittee of arbitration or a majority of them, shall be returned by
