Firing a Cannon From a Cannon. An inventor's ingenious plan to bring down aircraft flying at great heights
Caption: A shell like that which Mr. Graham has conceived can be timed to discharge its bullets efficiently, far from its target, unlike shrapnel. The bullets do not lose in velocity, thanks to their elongated form and their rotation. Their velocity is the sum of the shell's velocity and their own. Were it not for the centrifugal action of the shell, they would not scatter. The firing can be timed so that at least one volley will scatter properly.
