The varicas proposals received are taoul.ted as shown on too enclosed sheet. Since the delivery is of the utmost importance, we Favor the ..orthin -tor. Proposal '!umber 54 - 47 coverin' two Type DYo-3 three sta -e compressors drived by open induction factors. ;s r.'.o no real ray to chock manufacturers' delivery rronises and, since we are basin' our recommendations principally on the .manu facturers delivery promise, we are dependi ? upon your office to do enou ;h checkin- to verify the manufacturer's deliveries. If you find th. .t ..OrthL -ton delivery is doubtful, then we would favor the proposal made by Ln;;ersoil-hand, their Proposition Utah - 193 covering two Type TVH three st..;,-e conpressors, since the econo.ny of the In;;erso 11-Rand machine is so. .ewhnt better tnan the ..orthi.-. -ton model. The Chicajo Pneumatic propos.nl is not as favorable as either of the other two and, since their delivery isn't appreciably better, we would rate their offerin' last. -,'e hope that an order will be issued promptly covering this equipment because the compressors will be needed as soon as the plant starts operation. Yours truly. PK".:..S Enclosure cc to CCdurt EicLTittmann Ifrewin ' Pdlunkel F. a. F.ICHXJ30N ASARCO ELP 0006008
