realities and that the world must judge Germany's capacity to pay, Mir. Asquith expressed misgivings as to the wisdom of Lord Balfour note and advocated remitting the French and other allied war debts to England as mot only political but good business" He expressed the opinion that the American debt ought to be quite distinct from European matters and deprecated many sug- gcstions that the United States was under any obligation to waive it's debts.
 Josiah c. Wedgewood, laborite. ontended that what was required was different spirit throughout Eu- rope.
 Premier Answers Criticism
 Other members having spoken, MT. Lloyd George replied to the criti- cisms. He emphasized the absence of any real unanimity in the advice ten- dered to the government and also as- serted that in pursuance of any given policy. Great Bftain was unable to ignore her allies.
 The speech resolved itself into a rather detailed discussion of German reparations without reference to the vote beyond a remark that it was needless for the premier to add any thing to Sir Robert Horne's able speech. in which he declared Great Britain had no intention of suggest ing alteration of her financial obliga- tions to the United States.

By Associated Press

London, August s.-Today's debate in the House of Commons on inter- allied debts and German reparations proved disappointing. It had been expected that the debate would bring out further interesting facts respect ing the note of the Earl of Balfour and regarding Great Britainis future policy on international obliga- tions.
 It was apparent that Premier Lloyd George, Chancellor of the Exchequer Horne, Herbert H. As- quith, liberal leader, and other speakers made a studied effort to say nothing which would embarrass open and impartial discussion of the subject at next weeks conference between the allied leaders.
 There was constant reiteration of Great Britain's intention to repay her debt to the United States. but no pains were spared to make clearly apparent Great Britains sacrifices in the war. her generous post-ar- mistice attitude. and her staggering burdens of taxation.

The premier expressed satisfaction that NJ. Poincare had proposals to submit at next weeks conference and said he trusted the House of Com mons would give the government a free hand to examine them and do it's best to arrive at an agreement. He agreed that if Germany were pressed too hard she might be driven to despair. There would be lots of trouble. he said, but no cash, and revolutionary Germany, in the center of Europe. would be very different thing from revolutionary Russia.
 Blessing for Europe
 The premier said he thought it was blessing for Europe that the first outburst of communism had oc- cured in Russia.
 The premier deprecated underesti- mating Germany's capacity to pay. He said that Germany, like the rest of the world, was suffering from a bad trade situation. Therefore, this was not the time to estimate her full capacity.
 Martin H. Giynn. former governor of New York and many other Amer jeans. visited the chamber during the session. Some of them expressed disappointment over what they. espe- cially characterizedz. MT. Lloyd Georges tame .sps the gem eral listiessness hers of the House.

tions to the United States, that the government recognized to the full Great Britain's obligations to pay the debt.
 MT. Asquith won mild appreciation from one side by declaring the Bal four note impolite and importune. but he sai1 he hoped subsequently events would prove to the contrary. Laughter greeted his statement that the United States knew Great Britain was dealing in paper figures when she emphasized the enormous extent +of Europe's obligations.
 Mir. Lloyd George characterized Mir. Asquith's remarks as unfortunate. Declaring there was an absence of any concrete suggestions or better formula than already has been adopt ed for solution of the debts and separations questions, he called at tention to Mir. Asquith's desire for a clean slate. He said that was exactly what the note had advanced.
 Not Clean slate.
 But t is not clean slate he addeA when you wipe orr every debt due us and when you engrave more deeply upon the slate the debt which is due by us to other people. That isn't clean slate

DENOMINATION OF
 REED IN MISSOURI
 REGARDED CERTAIN
Has Lead of Nearly 1000, With Only 222 Small Precincts Yet to Be
 Heard From
By Associated Press

St. Louis, August 3.--Every factor on which political experts base thetr opinions indicated tonight, they said, that Senator James A. Reed had beel renominated by the democrats of Missouri. With 222 precincts missing out of the s,s4S in the state he was leading Breckinridge Long of St. Louis, former third assistant secre- tary of state in the Wilson cabinet, by 6.s4s votes. The vote:
 Reed. 1Ss.32i: Long, 1s2,442.
 To overcome this plurality in the remaining 222 precincts, 1t will be necessary for Mr. Long to lead Sen precinct. In the last 100 precincts reported from the less densely popu- lated sections, the total voters to the precinct has not equalled 31.
 Sixty of the 222 missing precincts are in St. Louis county, outside of St. Louis city Tn the 16 precincts that already have reported from this county, Long had an average lead over Reed of only three to the pre- cinct In the remaining precincts from out-state. reports show that the democratic vote was light.
 Awaits official Count
 Mir Long indicated tonight that he would wait for the official count before making q statement. although he admitted that matters did not look as bright as earlier in the day. Pre- cincts reporting today served to re- duce the senator's lead little by lit- tie. until at one time it was cut to slightly more than 6.300. In the last 50 precincts to report, however, Reeds column took brace. MT. Long tonight told the Associated Press that he was still confident of victory and that he believed the of. ficial count, which begins tomorrow. would be favorable to him.
 Attention was directed to the fact that several thousand national guardsmen are on strike duty away from home, and that this probably would increase the absent vote.
