Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst.10/MA.5. 2. 32.

We wish to fit the Exide universal 40/50 battery to 27-EX in order to get running experience as soon as possible. The P & R sample can then be fitted to 19-EX when it arrives.

We should be glad if you will arrange to instruct a new battery box for 27-EX to take the new units.
