| To Mr. Clarke from EY. ~~send to Mr.~~ X 295 BY7/T15/4/19. DYNAMO AND ELECTRICAL FITTINGS. Referring to Messrs. Smith & Sons dynamo fittings, I would like to point out that the combined volt meter and switch has been submitted to Mr. Royce but he does not like the scheme and has criticised same very strongly. I do not know just what Mr. Royce considers to be the defects of the scheme but he was certainly very strongly opposed to using same. I would like to point out that all the parts supplied by Messrs. Smith & Sons, have been supplied as samples and therefore great care should be taken of same so that they can be returned in good condition unless we consider it advisable later to buy same.
