the required advance characteristic all the way from zero to 1500 r.p.m. reasonably nearly.

This would certainly require some variable motion ratio between the moving weights and the cam. At present this ratio, as we have demonstrated, is very nearly constant.

You may expect our full report with diagram and curves early next week.
