Teslas Death Ray in 1940 NY Times... Nikola Tesla, one of the truly great inventors tells the writer that he stands ready to divulge to the United States government the secret of his teleforce, of which he said, airplane motors would be melted at a distance of 250 miles, so that an invisible Chinese Wall of Defense would be built around the country against any enemy attack by an enemy air force, no matter how large. This teleforce is based on an entirely new principle of physics, that no one has ever dreamed about, different from the principles embodied in the in his inventions relating to the transmission of electrical power from a distance, for which he has received a number of basic patents. This new type of force Mr. Tesla said, would operate through a beam one- hundred-millionth of a square centimeter in diameter, and could be generated from special plant that would cost no more then $2,000,000 and would take only about three months to construct. A dozen such plants, located at strategic points along the coast, according to Mr. Tesla, would be enough to defend the country against all aerial attack. The beam would melt any engine, whether diesel or gasoline driven, and would also ignite the explosives aboard any bomber. No possible defense against it could be devised, he asserts, as the beam would be all-penetrating rense/general10/deathray.htm
