3 extracts

Dear Ern,

I am much obliged for your letter of Feb. 2nd and note that you consider there is something in the adjustable spring shackles.

I have had a pair made and am sending them over to you at the first opportunity.

I note that you do not consider the Variable Speed Fan is very interesting. I will ask you only to give one trial which my friend is preparing.

X3499
I agree with you as regards Shutters but they are rather unsightly arrangements and will be extremely difficult to manufacture without rattles. At least that is my opinion.

X2768
I note what you say with regard to the automatic steam carburettor and will inform the Director in question.

Yours V. {VIENNA} Sincerely,

G.P.L..
