20 HP. CHASSIS - 'T' SERIES.
--------------------------

We fully appreciate the fact that a large number of parts are held up on the second half of 'T' series. We ourselves have raised the matter on two or three separate occasions but a decision was made that we must await the completion of the 10,000 miles.

The decision for standardising these parts or otherwise is, of course, in the hands of Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} with whom we have been in touch. We were discussing this matter again early this week. We think that the matter is now in such a position that Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} can give us a clearing note on the matter.

We have instructed the Order Office some time ago to order the Staybrite material for the radiators in such lengths as to enable either radiator to be produced from the material. This was as far as we could go.
