SAYS DR.. DERNBURG
BOUGHT GUN PLAN

CLEVELAND. Ohio. March 20
That the big gun used by the Germans
in bombardins Paris is the invention
OF Toledo, ohiL. man named wheIan
is told today IN a letter published in
the Cleveland News.
The writer signs the letter "An Eve
Witness" and declares that the same
gun (or, rather, the same idea Of gun)
fired shot thirty-six miles on Lake
Erie when tested three years ago.
The writer declares the gun was
purchased by DR.. Bernard Dernburg,
the German financial representative in
this country, and the inventor and his
wife were taken to Germany on the
same vessel on which DR.. DernburE
sailed.
During the tests on Lake Erie the
gun was operated from an old mud
scow. thus doing away with the Inch
mile" and concrete base problems
OF other days.
DR.. Dernburg actually was in Cleve-
land the day the Lusitania was sunk,
May Z, 1915.
Army ordnance experts say they
never heard Of such a gun az de-
scribed in the Cleveland dispatch.
They were much inclined to discredit
the story.
