GERMANY MAY CUT
PRIVATE OBLIGATIONS
Direct Negotiations Considered, but
Subject Will Not Be Taken
Up at World Farley.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, August 3.-Reduction of
Germany's private debts, which run to
nearly 100000 a year, may be
sought in private negotiations. but
apparently the government does not in
tend to raise this question at the pro-
jected World Economic Conference, in
which the United States will participate.
government spokesman declined to
confirm report that the private debts
would be a subject for consideration at
the World Conference, but In many
quarters it Is believed that reduction
Of the interest rates is essential to the
country's rehabilitation.
Germany's delegation to the Lausanne
Conference raised this question in a
general way at that meeting, but 1t II
said no specific plan for the private
debts has yet been evolved.
The National Socialists still clamor
for a general reduction to per cent
Of the Interest rate on all private debts
owed abroad, but the government is
inclined to believe that such request,
If made at the economic conference,
would be destructive to confidence in
the nations credit, and would prefer
to accomplish the desired end through
private arrangements.

MISSOURI VOTE IN DOUBT.
KieI and Wilson Leading in State
Election.

ST. LOUIS, August OP.-The out
come of Missouri's Democratic senate
rial and Republican gubernatorial con-
tests in yesterdays primary election
were still in doubt today, but Henry w.
KieI, former mayor of st. Louis, and
Francis M. Wilson apparently were the
Republican nominee for Senator and
Democratic choice for governor, re-
spectively.
Wilson defeated Seate Senator Russell
L. Dearmont and two other opponents
while Kiel was well ahead Of Dewey j.
Short, former Congressman from Ga
lena, who was second in the six-cor-
nered race.
In the congressional races where the
nominees were chosen at large for the
first time, a change necessitated by the
States failure to redistrict when Its
representatives we're reduced by three,
ali the Republican and most OF the
Democratic incumbentS were practical
" assured of nomination.
The closest race was that between
Lieut.. Gov. E. H Winter and Secretary
of State Charles U. Becker for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor
Returns from 1,105 Of the Abs pre-
cincts in the State gave Becker 81, ,7l5
votes, as compared with 3l,289 1or
Winter.
Another close battle was being waged
between Col. Bennett c. Clark, son OF
the late Speaker Champ Clark, ano
Charles M. Howell, former chairman OF
the Democratic State Committee, fol
the Democratic nomination for United
States Senator.
Howell, who had the backing Of the
It. ]. Pendergast political organization
of Kansas City, rolled up huge vote
in that city, but out-State the latter
was running to l ahead, and was
expected to pile up a good sized ma
jority in St. Louis

Suit.

formed by 1872 Appalachian coal field
operators was an effort to save the in
dustry from chaotic conditions and not
a step in restraint of trade. sought

by the Government in its antitrust
action before a three-judge Federal
Court.
Defense witnesses, offered after the
Government rested it's case yesterday,
testified the agency, known as Appa-
lachian Goals, Inc, was organized In
an effort to halt a system which has
resulted in driving the price of coal
below the cost Of production; decreasing
the wages Of labor below a fair living
scale and causing unemployment.
Before it rested the Government had
produced nine large coal consumers in
its effort to show the selling agency
is q monopoly, in violation Of the sher-
man antitrust law.

MORROW'S ILLNESS
BARS SENATE RACE
Ex Governor, Withdrawing,
Sees Republican Victory
in Kentucky.

III health will keep former Gov. Edwin
P. Morrow of Kentucky from being the
Republican candidate for United States
Senator from that State. Morrow. a
member of the United States Board of
Mediation, announced his withdrawal
from the race last night. He was op-
Grated on last May and his condition
has failed to show improvement.
In his withdrawal statement, Morrow
predicted the Republican party would
carry Kentucky In November.
His statement said:
My physical condition Is such that
I cannot, in justice either to my party
or myself, make the race for United
States Senator.
Advised by Doctor.
Hoping my condition would soon i'm
prove as TO justify undertaking the
campaign, have deferred making a
final decision until the advice of my
physician has made it imperative to
notify my Republican friends that 1t is
impossible for me to accede to their
more than generous wishes in this re-
Spect.
"There are many worthy Republicans
and I know the forthcoming convention
will name a candidate altogether worthy
of the party and one who will merit the
confidence Of the people at the polls.
Will Give His Support.
Every ounce of my strength shall be
given to the entire ticket to repay with
devoted service the party which has
signified its desire to confer upon me
a most distinct honor. The Republican
party, led by Herbert Hoover, should
carry Kentucky. Senator Barkley'
shifting positions, changing with every
political wind, should not, and I am
confident will not. appeal to the voters
Of Kentucky. Courage and confidence
should bring deserved victory in Ken
lucky"

u. s. BACKS PAR[EY
| BUT SHUNS DEBTS
Specific Tariff Rates Left
Also for Talks With In
dividuaI Nations.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The United States is willing to join
a world economic conference that will
ignore debts and specific tariff rates
but it has left open the possibility of
debt discussions with individual ma
tionS.
An invitation to the economic meet
ing sponsored by the League of Nations
was accepted yesterday. The American
note, delivered to the British embassy,
was not made public, but it outlined
reasons for acceptance and said repre-
sentatives for this country would be
named later.
Three Committees Urged.
The request to join stipulated that
individual tariffs, reparations and debts
would not be on the agenda for discus
sion. It specified that general tariff
policy and silver would and that repre-
sentatives of the participating nations
be designated to three committees
one to arrange the conference itself,
one on economic and one on financial
problems.
By accepting this invitation, the
State Department passed up a sugges-
ton by Senator Borah, Idaho inde-
pendent Republican, that war debts and
reparations should be considered at
the meeting along with disarmament.
But debts and reparationS can be gotten
at in another way.
President Hoover said Just after the
Lausanne agreement leading to the
new conference that the United States
could not be bludgeoned into a consid-
Grafton of debts by any combination
of European nations. The State De-
partment, of course, took the same po-
sition.
Hinges on Arms Action.
But neither officially nor unofficially
has a responsible administration leader
said so far that the United States
would not hold separate talks with
European nations on this problem. The
question hangs, however, on some con-
certed plan abroad first to reduce arms.
When such an agreement is reached, 1t
is almost a foregone conclusion that
America will at least talk about debts.
