HALF CHARGE SCHEME ON 18-EX for R.{Sir Henry Royce} It is considered that R.{Sir Henry Royce} should be provided with a complete range of resistances that we have already produced namely 6" 16" 25" and 33". In the first instance a 16" resistance has been put on the car and as we already have two 25" and 33" resistances, one of each of these will be available for the set. The 6" resistance that was made, however, was left on Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s car 58-GN. Will you please therefore, arrange for Mr.Brock to make two further 6" resistances and one further 16" resistance which will enable us to retain a complete set as well as letting R.{Sir Henry Royce} have such a set for 18-EX.
