We have pleasure in enclosing a leaflet by our assistant chief engineer Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Tuplin, M.Sc. on "Automobile Worm Gearing". This is of particular interest at the present time, as owing to the extension in the use of trolley buses and the prevailing demand for low-hung cars, worm gearing has never been in more active demand. It has occurred to us that some of your technical staff may like additional information on this subject and we extend to them a cordial invitation to meet Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Tuplin or his colleague Mr. H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Watson who will be in attendance at both exhibitions.
