| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} X3725. ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/MS10/P.15.7.32. [STAMP: RECEIVED 16 JUL 1932] A standardisation sheet is now in circulation for the Modified Dunlop Wire Wheels and Hubs which only includes 4 revolving nuts, which are loose. The super sheets have been issued embodying a revolving nut for each wheel, same being secured to the wheel shell by a retaining ring. The addition of the two revolving nuts and six retaining rings entails an increase in price of 19/2d per chassis. Presumably a new standardisation sheet will be required.
