| W/S - C. X5780 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}8/KW15.1.34. 20/25 HP. Carburetter. We have produced a Carburetter modified to prevent the air valve sticking. This latter is now guided at the bottom by a steel guide, and has clearance round the top large diameter. We should like to fit this to 20-G-IV. If you would let us know one day next week when it will be convenient for you we could send down someone to fit the carburetter. This will not take more than half a day.
