EVADING DISARMAMENT
— » DISTRUST OF GERMANY, T AIR FLEET MAINTAINED. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn.) Received October 13, 10.15 p.m. LONDON, October 12. The Times again draws attention to the German evasion of disarmament, referring this time to aircraft. Information has been secured to the effect that, though many aeroplanes have been surrendered, thousands of the best engines arc hidden and easily accessible. The aircraft manufacturers arc capable of making 100,000 metal aeroplanes, constructed of light alloys of remarkable strength, in a very short time. The Times urges immediate plans to prevent the expansion of the air fleet by forbidding Germany to possess civil aircraft with a flight range of more than 300 or 400 miles, or with power to rise quickly to fighting heights, also constant vigilance on the part of officials and statesmen.
