Mr. Day is finishing the supplementary levers in connection with the servo, and the scheme of braking that we are finally adopting is the RRM. Des. 60.
We think the whole arrangement round the servo is now very clean in design and the units are all workable pieces and as simple and perfect as we know how to make them.
