'WORD AWAITED FROM UNCLE SAM : STATEMENT OF POLICY MAY BE MADE.?POSITION O F GREAT BRITAIN AND FRANCE ON DEBT QUESTION KNOWN SOON Paris, Aug. 3.?Some statement of the American government dealing with the note of the Earl of Balfour acting British foreign secretary, con cerning allied war debts is anxious- , ly awaited in reparations commis- j sion circles, where it was said to- . night that the British communica- , tion on interallied debts would not > have the effect of preventing a ^ Franco-British reparation settlement '4 Information is said to have reach- j ed reparations headquarters from an ^ authoritative source that Lord Bal- i four's note was a "trial balloon sent j up for the purpose of placing respon sibility of solution of the debts at 1 the door of the United States." If the balloon bursts through a re fusal of the United States to depart from its already established policy 1 the reparations experts have been ( informed that Great Britain will 1 proceed to a decision at the coming t meeting of the French debts com- t mission regardless of the American J ] policy. Little hope is entertained a- i mong the reparations experts that ] the United States will change its ( attitude toward the debtors, but the point is emphasized that Lord Bal- i four's exposition clears the atmos phere of all doubt as to who holds the key to the whole problem. It is felt that the United States is bound f to make some answer even if indefi- ( nite in character. London, Aug. 3.?The British gov- ] ernment's note to Great Britain's < allies in the great war, reminding i them that they owe Great Britain money and that she has a right to ask for payment, has thrown wide open the most delicate topic in in ternational politics. The discussion I of the question of debts owed to i Great Britain had been studiously avoided by all concerned, apparent- i ly with a view on the part of the : creditor nation that the time for ! grasping that nettle might most con veniently be indefinitely postponed.

Abbeville fought to a spectacular 12 inning 4 to 4 in Anderson yes terday afternoon in the first game of the week between the two clubs on the Anderson diamond.

Our boys were able to hit Simpson rather freely in several innings, piling up a total of 14 safeties during the 12 innings of play. The Andersonians, who usually outhit visiting teams, ivere able to get only eight safeties, fhe battincr of Medlock for the eler xicians and Reames and Erwin for \bbeville featured the day.

McMilligan, Anderson's hurling ace, whose name, by the way, is Mil ligan, not McMilligan, although he won his first game in the Piedmont League for High Point, received a warm reception, Danville clouting him for fifteen hits. He won, how ever, 12 to 4. The following from the write-up of the game in the Greensboro News, will be of inter pst. to the fans here: "Milligan, who was scouted by Powell, and who hales from the state of Georgia, made his bow into the Piedmont league this afternoon when he occupied the pit of pitch dom for the locals. Although his twisters were hit 15 times, the heav ier kept the bingles well scatteredi and was aided by spectacular field ing on the part of his supporters, numerous double plays aiding in re tiring the side.
