| W/S {Derby Works / Sales} - C. K360 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 5/KW.18.8.36. 34-EX Clutch. If we do not take advantage of 34-EX to fit a clutch plate which gives us a smooth take-up, we are missing an opportunity of learning something about what we believe will be one of the chief complaints on the Ph.III. We should therefore be very glad if you could arrange to let us have this car back at the Works as soon as possible. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
