NOTE INCIDENT MYSTERY.
May Cause Poincare to Come Out
With Statement of Policy.

PARIS, January Silt is under
stood here that the note Of Premier
Poincare to Mustapha Kemal Pasha
counseling moderation on the part
of the Turks in their stand with re-
gard to the near east treaty and de-
claring that France was ready, If
necessary, to make further conces-
sions to the Turks, was communicat-
ed to the delegation at Lausanne and
also to London and Rome. How Lord
Curzon came not to receive the note
Is unknown. but the storm it has
raised at Lausanne, of which there
are echoes here, is likely to serve at
least to clear up the situation by
causing Premier Poincare to come out
in the open with a concrete statement
of Frances policy.
Does NJ Poincare's note to Angora's
representative mean simply that he
wishes to maintain permanent or
ganization for negotiations at
Lausanne or elsewhere between the
allies and the Turks?" asks the Echo
De Paris. IF 50 his viewpoint, with

a second rupture with England, worse
than of January 5, is inevitable.
The French government has been
oscillating latterly between the Brit
ish entente and desire for Turkish
entente. 1t Is no secret that NJ. Bar
rere left Lausanne because he repu-
dated too outspokenly the latter
policy"
The opinion generally expressed in
the morning newspapers inclines TO
the belief that NJ. Poincare does not
really intend to burn the last bridge
with Great Britain and that sepa-
rate French peace with Turkey is
most unlikely.
