Death ray talks hinge on long range laser gun
London AP report says Britain and the United States share details on a supposed death ray being developed to destroy aircraft and missiles at long range. A Defense Ministry spokesman notes work on a powerful laser gun with 79 mile range, potentially aircraft mounted, with initial tests likely aboard ships due to power needs. The laser would project a focused beam at the speed of light, delivering instantaneous impact. A separate AP dispatch notes a 48-year-old man, after 15 years on death row, was hanged for murder after completing 40 books in Braille for the blind, including Dostoyevsky Crime and Punishment.
