"The effect of a slotted wing depends essentially on the fact that a secondary flow branches off from the main flow and passes to the suction side of the profile. It is thus possible to delay the separation greatly and increase the lift. The practical aspect of the slotted wing is less known in Germany, especially the results obtained during the last three years since the introduction of the 'auto control slot'" (p. 1).
