| HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ) FROM E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} ) C. to SG. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOR. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} C. to DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} OFFICIAL BONNET LOCKS. Regarding the question of standardising the latest design of bonnet lock (which would increase the cost of the chassis by 25/-) R. {Sir Henry Royce} instructs me to say that he is quite agreeable to deleting bonnet locks from both chassis as a standard fitting, and only putting them on when specially required by customers, but, bonnet locks so fitted should be of the latest design. x7260.
