The most important post-war de- velopment of the many novel ideas of new engines of war was announced B! yesterday by the Army alr service in mithe form of a pilotless airplane, equipped with an automatic control {device and sald to be more accurate | and dependable than any human pilot.

By the Associuted Press. NEW YORK, November 15.—Lying against the mossy bank of a secluded ravine in the Bronx, a lighted ciga- rette dangling from his smiling lips, the lifeless body of Arthur Crawford, actor, humorist, “the man of a wealth of funny ideas.” was found, a bullet wound in the heart. at his side. The report of the shot. heard by Thomas Lillic, a passer-by, attracted him to the ravine. He summoned po- licemen and in Crawford's pocket they found a letter, addressed to his son, an instructor in physical educa- tion at Columbia University, and a will. The letter contained a key to a safety deposit vault and informed the son he would find $8,000 in the Bank of Montreal. Born fifty-five years ago in Mon- treal, Crawford was graduated at Lincoln College, at Sorrel, Quebec, and from the Roval Military College at Kingeton, Ontario. He began his career in 1892, in the drama “Dart- moor,” and later appeared in other stage productions. He left the stage in 1896 to write paragraphs, jokes and anecdotes for humorous publica- tions. He was widely known as “A. C." {For years he had furnished artists with ideas .for many of their best pleces, and behind the artist's name on such drawings, after a plus sign, appeared his initials.
