TRY TO PREVENT FIGHTING. Be Only Stumblingblock. BY A. R. DECKER. By Wireless to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1921. OPPELN, Upper Silesia, June 16 (via Berlin, June 17).—A series of confer- ences, official and unofficial. but all secret, have resulted apparently in the determination that the first step to- ward ending the insurrection must be the withdrawal of the Germans from certain positions. The Germans have agreed to leave part of Annaberg, and hence “no man's land” is being widen- ed into a zone which will prevent fighting. Conferences have been held in Oppeln between Gen. Lerond and a German committee of twelve political leaders. In Gleiwitz representatives of Korfanty and members of the interallied commission | have met, and in Blottwitz, near Gross Strehlitz, Korfanty in the last few davs has conferred with the alliea. Tne con- ferences are proceeding daily and efforts are being made to develop a plan which will obviate further fighting. Already the insurgent newspapers are asserting that though the insurgent army is dis- banding, the armed demonstration has served its purpose. Distrust on Both Sides. The hitch in the negotiations is over the problem as to who will police the area. The insurgents propose the use of the militia alrea: looked upon as confirming the occupa- tion or as a preparation for a new seizure of power as soon as the allies leave. A week ago the French proj the formation of a community guard or “garde communale,” and almost succeed- ed in having the pian adopted, It would have favored the Poles by taking the control from the central commission and placing it in the hands of regional con- trollers. The Germans insist that the insurgent “war criminals” must be tried. This morning about 200 armed insur- gents from Sosnitza tried to capture the Gleiwitz station on the outskirts of the city, which has a population of 75,000 and is in the industrial area. The Ger- man police permitted the insurgents to enter the city, surrounded them, forced them to surrender and turned the pris- oners over to the French garrison.
