that the mixture ratios delivered are quite good, in spite of this mechanical defect.

The other curve of the vertical carburetor, however, approaches the ideal mixture curve very closely indeed, and shows that while the principles on which the carburetor is designed are correct, the mechanical means for using those principles are of the highest order.

I shall be very interested to have a chat with you some time on this question, as should you wish to make a personal investigation of the Stromberg Carburetor, I feel that you would corroborate our own opinions.

Yours very truly,
