| ROLLS-ROYCE OF AMERICA, INC. SPRINGFIELD, MASS. X2758 Oy3 - G 17221 February 17, 1921 To: Mr. Hives From: Mr. Olley Re: Induction Pipes written Completing my/letter of February 11th, we have now tested the 2" cold pipe with weirs on 2, 3, 4 and 5, to which I referred, and find it no good. It loads up considerably after continued running full throttle at 10 m.p.h. It is better apparently than the standard 2" pipe, but does not compare with the heated scheme with 1" though pipe.
