QINCE the announcement, last
CiZtober, relating to the compulsory use of producer gas, there has existed some degree of uncertainty with regard 'to' the position of the makers of proprietary plants. This has now been cleared up, and it is definite that operators, who are required by the Ministry of War Transport to. equip their vehicles to run on producer gas, may enjoy freedom of choice as •to which type or make of apparatus they employ.
This is the 'direct result of negotia' tions by the Mobile Producer Gas , Association, and it means that members of this Association are permitted to make plants and to market them to operators who hold the necessary licences to purchase.
' Whilst considerable delay seems to be virtually unavoidable in obtaining Governthent Emergency plants, proprietary-apparatus can be acquired and installed immediately. Furthermore, the range of gas producers offered by the companies of the M.P.G.A. are suitable for both larger and smaller engines
than those to which the G.E.P. models are applicable.
The following companies are members of this Association: British Gazogenes, Ltd., Portsmouth' Road, Cobham, Surrey; British Vehicle Producer Gas, Ltd., 169, Fulham Road, London, S.W.3; Dupuy, Ltd., 11-13, Bury Walk, London, S.'W.3; Enness Sentinel, Ltd., Enness Works, 22, Union Road, London, S.W.4; H.M.L., Ltd., 466-490, Edgware Road, London, W.2; Valentine and Carr, Ltd., 38, Paradise Street, Sheffield, 1_
