  Batra and Casas (1976) claimed that 'a strong Rybczynski result' arises in
the three-factor two-good general equilibrium trade model. In subsequent
comments, Suzuki (1983) contended that this could not be the case. Among his
comments, Suzuki found that the set of three equations holds for the
Allen-partial elasticity of substitution under the assumption of perfect
complementarity, and he applied these to his analysis. In the following, I
demonstrate that these are impossible, hence his dissenting proof is not
plausible.
