Ltd., Dallow Road, LUTON. Dear Sirs, 25/30 HP. STEERING ROLLERS. ------------------------ I was rather surprised to hear from our Order Office this morning that you are only supplying sufficient material to make 100 follower rollers. In order to prevent any further misunderstanding, will you kindly note that since this part will come on regularly under the new scheme that material as and when required must be supplied to Messrs. Ransome & Marles to keep production of follower rollers in step with your cams. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. By TECHNICAL PRODUCTION ENGINEER. | ||
