The employees in the office If
Secretary of State, Jimmy No,
land. got a taste of what airplane
bombardment means, during Il
recent demonstration Of new
model of airplane gun invented
by Justin G. Pewther, late of
General Pershing's expeiitionary
army. While the model is small,
shooting small shot, it shoots
with considerable force, as will.
be testified by one fl .shy emoloye
WIN WAS o)king tn. oth.c WY
when he was hit. Pewther's gun
it is declared by army officials. is
superior to any rapid firing al,
plane gun yet invented. That
the demonstration of the model
was made in Secretary Noland's
Office was due to the fact that
Jimmy has eAlisted more than
600 men for the aero service dur
ing the past year, this being one
of his many wartime activities.
The gun operates through the
compressed air system attached
to the wings of the machine. 1t
can be shot in any direction.
During the demonstration the in
ventor inadvertently turned the
crank SO that the small leaden
pellets went down the main office
like a hail storm of lead. Aside
from the fat clark who will take
