Wichita, Kan. (UP)-Wichita. women pilots disagree with the as- sertion of Miss Antonio Strass- mann, famed German pilot, that there is no place for women in the development of aviation, particu- larly from a point of financial re- muneration.
 They however, agreed with Miss Strassmann regarding women be- ing unable to fly transports, or mail planes.
 Contrary to Miss Strassmann's statement, there is an unusually large field open to women who will enter the field of aviation with the same courage displayed by the men, the Wichita women declare.
 They point out that Miss Strass- mann herself makes only a small percentage of her income from actual flying, but is able to conn mand a good salary through her connections with airplane manu- lecturers.
 Good at Selling
 Mrs Eldon Cessna, a leader in the Wichita Women's Aeronautical Association and wife of a manu- facturer and pilot. said:
 Plying a transport and the air mail is in the mems sphere just as much as running a locomotive, or street car. Women don't aspire to take their places. But women learned to drive automobiles and have the confidence of men as a rule and in few years 1t will be the same with planes"
 Mrs Walter Beech, wife of a Wichita airplane manufactures also contends Miss Strassmapn made a broad statement. Other Openings
 "I agree with Miss Strassmann in her statement that women pi- lots probably never will fly trans port ships, or the mail, but there are other avenues open to women flyers where plenty of money can be and is being made.
 "Take Amelia Earhart, for in- stance. She has one of the best contracts a woman Aver cOllId get

FAIRNESS FOR

LONDON, Nov. 13.-A demand
by Gen. Jan smuts of South Africa,
one of the empires most respected
men, for fairness toward Nazi Ger
many, and a warning that the Pa
cific naval problem far overshadoWs
European ones in Importance, cans
ed a sudden shift in land and naval
disarmament talk today.
Demanding the revision of the
Versailles treaty, SHUTS said.
There is only one way to remove
the inferiority complex that is OBJ
seSsing and poisoning the mind and
the very soul of Germany; namely
to recognize her complete equality
with her fellows.
do SO frankly. freely, without re
serve. A resolute and determined eff.
sort may yet save the situation,
bring Grmany back to the disarm
ament conference and the League
OF Nations, and thus probably lead
to substantial step forward toward
agreed disarmament.
But the naval ratio treaty now
seems the danger. If that goes, the
other issues settled a the Washing
ton conference may also be reopened
and the whole Pacific concert col.
lapse.
Here is something far more dam
gerouS for the future than these pre-
sent temporary passing differences
in Europe
Regarding the far east, he said:
while our policy should be based
on friendship for all and exclusive
alliances with none, our policy
should conform to that general Am
erican orientation which has dis
tinguished it since cur association
with the United States in the World
war"
Smuts made his speech at the
Royal Institute of international Al
fairs.
