BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, April 10.-Henry A.
Wise Wood, chairman of the board
of the Wood Newspaper Machinery
Corp. and inventor of modern high
speed newspaper presses, died last
night after short illness. He
was 73.
Mr.. Wood invented and manufac-
tured the autoplate. producing by
machinery printing plates previously
made by hand; the autoreel, which
feeds newsprint to high-speed
presses, and the autopaster. which
replaces one blank roll with another
without stoppage of the press.
These and other inventions helped
to raise the rate of newspapers from
$4,000 to $4,000 copies an hour,
printed and folded. Many of his
innovations were introduced in
plants of the New York Times.
Mr.. Wood also wasNn outstanding
aeronautical engineer, pioneering in
naval aeronautics. In 1915 he was
member of the United States Naval
Consulting Board, but resigned in
protest to the dangerously weak"
policy of the Wilson administration.
A native of New York, the inventor
was the son of Fernando Wood,
three times Mayor of the city, and
the former Alice Fenner Mills.
Mr.. Wood was educated at Media
Academy, Media, Pa, and was mar
ried in 1891 to Miss Elizabeth
Ogden Brown. A daughter, Mrs.
John Cyrus Distler of Baltimore !;
two grandchildren, and brother,
Otis Wood of New York, survive.
