NEW WAR HORROR
BOMB-FILLED PLANE WITHOUT CREW CLOCKWORK BRAIN CONTROLS Reed. 9.35 a.m. LONDON, Sunday. The “Daily Mail” states: “Developing out o£ robot flying devices there is secretly evolving a new war horror consisting of a giant airplane functioning without a crew. The engine and course are controlled by a clockwork brain. “The hull is a mere receptacle for bombs. “The machine will resemble an enormous flying torpedo. The mechanical brain is located in the middle of the hull, in which gyroscopes establish electrical contacts. “Immediately the machine inclines to deviate from its course the clockwork, which is set beforehand, stops the engine, and after a predetermined distance, causes the bomb-laden plane to crash down in a city marked out for destruction.”
