| - 2 - BY2/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} 15.2.26. -------------------- sound from every point of view, we should make every effort to standardize it, andget it into production without delay, and not merely act as obstructionists. If the present spare wheel carrier,(which is unquestionably satisfactory,)is pushed on one side, then so far as i can see we may give up all hopes of attempting to fit any design of our own for another twelve months, as R.{Sir Henry Royce} is far too busy to turn again to this subject, particularly when he has given it the fullest possible consideration and designed a scheme which, to the technical people at this end, is by far the best thing we have ever seen in this connection. We return Standardization Sheets herewith. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
