BJ7/H20.6.22.

To H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} from BJ.
Copies to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Hoy.

Rudge-Whitworth Wire Wheels.

I attach reports from Bt. {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} (Bt {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} 2/EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} 9.6.22) and Rg. {Mr Rowledge} (Rg {Mr Rowledge} 2/W15.6.22), as I believe Mr. Royce is particularly interested in the question of Rudge-Whitworth and Dunlop wheels just now and you may consider these reports worth putting before him when he is discussing the matter.

There is little doubt that Bt. {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} refers to a report from Roy. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} which was mentioned at a Sales Conference. Bt. {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} apparently misunderstood the reference and thought it was a report from Rg {Mr Rowledge} , as both Rg. {Mr Rowledge} and Roy. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} were connected with Wolseley's.
