20 HP. CHASSIS. LUBRICATOR ON REAR END OF PROPELLOR SHAFT.

We have received a memo from Sales in connection with the above matter, in which they point out that your memo Hsl/LG. 3. 7. 24. was discussed at the Sales Conference and considered that we ought to provide a narrow strip of Aluminium such as used on the Experimental Car referred to in your memo, on all future cars, and that we should show [strikethrough]on[/strikethrough] on chassis prints to be supplied to Coachbuilders how this should be fixed, or alternatively make a recommendation that a strip of aluminium should be supplied and fitted by the coachbuilder in a similar manner to what you have done on the Experimental Cars.

We should be glad if you would let us have some information in connection with the above, so that we can deal with the matter.
