OF WAR IS KEENL.Y
 FELT BY WOMEN
AFTERMATH

AFTERMATH
 CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 21 (by Associated Press).-Nowhere has the high cost of living been felt more keenly than in Turkish harems. Men who were formerly able to maintain many wives and concubines find their incomes insufficient to keep up large establishments and are forced to turn some of the women adrift.
 American women relief workers who have been Investigating social and economic conditions say the tragedies Turkish women have undergone as result of the war are even worse than in other European countries because of the utter helplessness of women and their lack of training which might make them self-supporting.
 The sufferings of Moslem women are worse in cities than in the country, for the country women are frequently trained to do farm work and are an asset to their husbands rather than liability. Furthermore the economic conditions have not been disturbed so seriously in rural districts. Farming goes on much the same as usual. Women can find employment in olive groves, at silk culture, in fruit or chards and even in grain fields.
 
 women of the husbands, fathers or other male relatives upon whom they were dependent, many city women forced themselves into employment which was never before regarded as proper for Moslem women Turkish women with their veils thrown back from their faces may now be seen as salesWOmen in scores of COnstanti- nople shops. They are even employed as street sweepers.
 There has been a great outcry against Moslem women accepting en- ployment which forces them into asso- citation with men, especially Chris tian men, but the economic pressure has been so strong that religious pre- judices had to make way. The need for nurses with the army gave Mos lem women their first opportunity to get hospital training and become nur- ses. That was the entering wedge which has opened the way into other employments monopolized by Greek and Armenian women. Turkish wom- en may now be found in telephone exchanges. They are acting as cash iers, janitors and even street car con- ductOrs.
 Stern necessity has won for Turkish women an independence which was undreamed of six years ago, and the wall of the untrained women forced to earn their livlihood has aroused Turkish leaders to realization of the necessity for better and more practi- cal education for women.

VIENNA MAY BE
 AERIAL CENTER
 OF NAVICATI0N

VIENNA( Sept. 20 (by Associated Press).-f plans now making are car ried out Vienna will become one of the great centers of European air navigation.
 When soon after the conclusion of hostilities England, France and Italy prepared to girdle and criss-cross Flu rope with air routes, it looked as if Austria were to be left out altogether in favor of more friendly countries, F. the lanes being laid out via Prague and in the north and south over Italy Laibach and Agram. With the arriv- al here of various missions and an un- derstanding not only of the favorable Geographical location of Vienna but also of it's existing facilities, the en, tire scheme has been changed to cen ter many of the lanes here.
 It is understood that Colonel Barres, chief of allied aviation control in Aus tria, takes this view and favors the
 
 as central station. This field is only a few miles from Vienna and is abundantly equipped with hangars and repair shops, gasoline talks and all the paraphernalia of great war plant.
 Companies subsidized by the British government are arranging for an air line from London by way of Brussels, Coblenz, Munich, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade and Sofia to Constantinople. Vienna is exactly in the center of this route, which is 2,400 meters long,
 One of the officials of the British Vickers concern has been here perfect ing an arrangement with the Vienna Aircraft Navigation Company to care for the service with the Munich and Vienna and Vienna and Budapest. This contemplates care of planes at Aspern, their repair, transhipment of cargo when necessary and looking after pas sengers, who will be brought by motor to Vienna hotels and back to the As perm field.
 While the London, Vienna, Constan- tinople route represents the great West-East line, the North South line is planned from Berlin by way of Graz, Klagenfurt or Trieste, Udine and Padua, connecting there with Milan, to Rome. Both Graz and Klagenfort have first rate aviation fields.
 In Germany it is reported the Lloyd Air Service has pooled interests with the North German Lloyd and it is understood to have concluded arrange ments with the Vienna Aircraft Nav igation Company for the latter to take entire charge of it's interests on Aus trian territory.
 Offices have already been opened here and regular airplane trips to the nearby points of interests have been inugurated.
