Chicago, Oct. 22 (AP) - Al "Scarface" Capone, reputed ruler of the vicelands of Cicero, rode home "alone" this morning "without fear that any minute I'd get a machine gun in my face," after signing a gang "peace treaty" in a loop hotel.

"Gangland's killings have come to an end in Chicago," he told a reporter for the Herald and Examiner after a two hour conference with representatives of a powerful north side band at which "all shook hands and made up, remembering the old days when we were all in one mob and happy."

Th efinal gathering was held, Capone said, after preliminary conferences between himself and an intermediary had paved the way. It [illegible] previous pleas for peace from the Cicero leader who inveighed against "useless slaughter" on the ground that "there is enough business for us all." Will Sleep Easy "Now for the first time in two years I will sleep without a gun under my pillow," Capone was quoted as saying. "I believe it's peace to stay. I know I won't break it and I don't think they will."

The peace, if peace it remains, came while police still were investigating the tangled clews surrounding the recent machine gun slaying of Hymie Weiss, successor to Dion O'Bannon as ruler of the north side band of gangsters and liquor runners. The reputed successor to Weiss, Vincent (Schemer) Drucci was named as one of four present at the peace conference.

The others were George "Bugs" Moran, and Maxie Eisen, recently returned to Chicago, and supposed to be one of the initiators of the fraternal move. Don't Want to Die "I told them I didn't want to die," Capone said. "I didn't want them to die either. I said it wasn't necessary. We could find a more sensible way to settle our difficulties. I had sent word to them many times before Hymie died. They thought I was kidding. But when they saw I was in earnest, they sent word to me that they wanted to talk things over."

When Capone rode home alone, he did something he had not done in two years. "When I used to go out in my car, it looked like a funeral. It had to look like that so it wouldn't be one. I feel like a guy all of a sudden let out of prison."

The terms of the treaty were simple, Capone said.

"Our fight was never over business. It was all bad feeling between one man and another. I haven't any business on the north side and they haven't in Cicero. They'll stay in their back yard and I'll stay in mine."
