We shall shortly send a proposal sheet suggesting that this latter change should be made standard, as we find it has no effect on carburation and it has the great advantage that all air entering the carburetter passes through the air-cleaner, so that it seems to cure completely the tendency of the air valve to stick with dust.

Yours very truly,
