NEW WAR HORROR
[United Press Association—By ElectricTelegraph—Copyright.J
(Received this day at 8.80., a.m.) ' LONDON, April 12. The “Daily Mail” states: “Developing out of Robot flying devices, there is secretly evolving a new war horror consisting of a giant aeroplane functioning without a crew. The engine and course are controlled by clockwork. The brain of the hull is a mere receptacle for, bombs. The machine will resemble an enormous flying torpedo, fho mechanical brain is located in an armoured container in the middle of the hull in which gyroscopes establish electrical contacts immediately the machine inclines or deviates from its course. The clockwork is set beforehand and stops the engine after a predetermined distance and causes the bomb laden plane to crash down in a city marked out for destruction.”
