To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}

c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}

17090 E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}4/HP.8.12.33.

P.2. Camshaft Squawks.

We re-issue to you LeC. - 3664.

We have made a slight modification to the tappet making the section stronger at the fork.

May we call attention to our memo E.7/HP.9.10.33, in which we suggest that a test should be made to ascertain the power and floating speed when used with the existing camshaft.

E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}
