Show OUD STUFF THIS; IDEA FROM FRANCE ; (By Goodrich News Bureau.) i William F. Anderson, an inventor of 153 Market Street, San Francisco, would command a marine corps aero-plan aero-plan squadron in carrying out what he declares to be the "only certain method meth-od of bringing the war to an immediate immed-iate end." Andersen applied for a commission and unfolded his scheme at the marine recruiting office on (Market Street. "I would have each aeroplane carry a great number of potato bugs," he told Sergeant Hornboatel, "The bugs could be dropped by the thousands upon up-on Germany's potato fields. The potato pota-to crop would be a failure and the Kaiser would be forced to surrender. Note. This idea is by no means new. The French have been considering consider-ing it for some time.) |
