X.2375 CHASSIS - MAGNETOS. X4279

With reference to the question of obtaining a better magneto from Messrs. Norths, I wrote them very definitely in regard to the weak points of their present magneto, and attach copy of their reply which shows some promise of an improvement. I am replying to the letter in question, pointing out to them that the question of time is a very important one, so far as we are concerned.
