D.W.S. JACKS. (Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 4/GR. {George Ratcliffe} 11.10.32)

The position of the above is that a set of modified jacks were received and fitted to a car last week. The brackets used require small modifications and the D.O. are at present making a drawing of the brackets that will be approved of. We understand this will be finished shortly; the jacks then will be approved for production; the date upon which they can be introduced on production will depend upon how long the manufacturers require to produce the brackets; the jacks themselves are available almost immediately.
