γ X6072 Mr.Mills.O.O.From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Pgt. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Pgt.3/MA.18.7.32. We have had repeated trouble with a Lucas foot-operated "Dipper" switch, on experimental car 20-EX, and have decided to remove it as soon as the car is available. As this car must shortly be ready for running, and we have no spare switches, we should be pleased if you would obtain a new one from Messrs. Lucas as soon as possible.
