| Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} K1200 BY/Cgh.{W Clough}9/G.28.1.35. BENTLEY CHASSIS - 'E' SERIES MATERIAL. With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}25/KW.211.35. although it was agreed verbally that we should introduce the pinion with integral inner race, we have now cancelled this as requested. In regard to the cantilever pedals, although we have had material held up in view of these, we released the present standard material on the 15th inst. as agreed upon at that time, but if standardisation sheets could be issued at once we would take the matter up with a view to introducing the new pedals on the 1st. in E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} series.
