THERMOSTATIC SHUTTER CONTROL.
In this connection we have always realised when discussing the subject that a over-riding hand control would be desirable in order that a man might be able to close the shutters although the temperature was fairly high, when leaving the car for a short time such as at luncheon. Has this provision been kept in view and any arrangemnt being tested or to be tested in connection with SS. {S. Smith}
