PILOTLESS AIRCRAFT
EARNS
DOLLARS
Melbourne, Feb. 28.
A small Australian-designed pilot-less jet air- craft has become a major dollar earner and soon may be zooming across the skies of other Western countries at speeds approaching 600 miles an hour.
It is called the Jindivik-an aboriginal word for a sheath in which the aborigine carries his weapons. In the past few months, it has become recognised by many air experts as the most useful target aircraft, under command guidance, available to Western democracies.

Sent To Paris Guillotine
Paris, Feb. 28. France, which apart from Spain is the only West European country retaining the death penalty, today guillotined its public enemy No. 1, gunman Emile Buisson.
Struggling and screaming "You are going to see an innocent man die," Buisson was half- dragged to the guillotine at the Sante Prison here at dawn and executed for an armed robbery at Boulogne in which a jeweller was seriously wound- ed.
Buisson, 53 who first ap- prarod in court at the age of nine and was
feared in the underworld
for his extreme cruelty, had been under the death sentence for two years and no longer expected to be executed,
Prison officers said he win wound asleep when the exceu- tioner's assistant entered his cell. Workanen In stockinged fect had spent the night Quietly dotting up the
