England and France are at loggerheads over the course to be pursued at the Near East peace conference when it convenes here.

Tremier Poincare of France will not go to London. General Sir Charles Harrington, Blrtis't commander at Constantinople wants to proclaim martial law at once. He Is opposed by General Ptlle. French high commissioner, who Is supported by the Italians. The dissensions between the allies have fostered a spirit of orrogant aggressiveness among the Turkish Nationalist leaders, espicially the extremists In the Angora assembly. With the wily diplomacy for which they have long been noted, the Turkish peace dilegates In Switzerland are proclaiming pacific Intentions. "Turkey Is a democracy and It Is striving for peace," declared Ismet Pasha, head of the Turkish delegation. 'Our only claim Is that Turk:y be recognized as an Independent nation on the same equality as other nations. Turkey in the future will not be ruled by a religious head. The caliphate will be of rellgtcus character. Turkey will b ruled by the head of the democratic government and the assembly.

Intimating that negotiations may be under way to frame an alliance between Turkey and Soviet Russia. The Turkish leader wept as he described the outrages which, he claimed, retreating Greek soldiers committed In Asia Minor. He said that many villages were completely wiped out. "The Turks wanted peace before they started the offensive which defeated tht Greeks," continued Ismet Pasha. ""We want peace now. The day will come when hu manity will recognize Turkey's just cause." The Turkish leader said ha was anxious for the United States to play an active uart In the Near East conference. He said the Turks expressed anger over the refusal of the allies to allow Russia to aave a full part In the parley.

' Po J i.ee would not say whether charges wouia oe placed against Stevenson Clever work on the part of DetecJ tlves Carlson and Warner Is reeDon sible for the apprehension of GilJ fallen and the uncovering of a Plod mat is worksd often against insurance companies by hard-up eoliev holders. Apprised some days ago that a? National roadster had been locked for weeks In a garago at 20 Carrol st.. the detectives quickly found thJ renter of the garage and ostensible owner of the car. It took five hours of arduoud questioning, but Carlson and Warn-I er wormed from Gilfallen flnallthe confession that he had con spired with Stevenson to steal thei car Bo that the latter might obtain! the burglar protective Insurance. According to Gilfallen the plod began early last July when Steven son iook uuianen to lunch ones noon. Stevonson parked his car lrJ front of the restaurant. "You didn'a lock your machine," Gilfallen said to Stevenson. "Oh, that's all right I wish to heavens someone woulc steal it," replied the owner of th National. Two weeks later the plans wer completed. Stevenson was to at tend the Blacketone theatre, leaving his car parked in front. GllfallenJ was to take it. He did and drove to a private garage he had rented in Chicago. About October 1, h? drove the car to Hammond and placed it in the garage at 30 Carrol St., where It has since remained. Gilfallen says he received $40 of the $50 he had been promised for putting over the Job. He got also one tire. The car, persumably, was to be returned to Stevenson after a sufficient time had elapsed follow ing payment of the $2,500 insurance money. The hue and cry raised byj the Insurance company would then have died down and the innocent icttm might reclaim his machine. Gilfallen gave his address as 8145 Emerald ave.. Chicago. He was arested by Carlson and Warner a the offices of the Simplex plant yesterday afternoon. Insurance company representa tlves were to arrive here today to adjust the matter. There Is a pos sibility that having paid the indemnity money to Stevenson they may ask prosecution on charges of obtaining money under fa.se pre-: tenses.
