BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} X7420 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}13/W.4.6.30. X7360. X5860 X7930. X5930 X7420. ROAD WHEEL BRAKES. With reference to E.1/M30.5.30. Will you please give us a scheme for trying out the device suggested by R.{Sir Henry Royce} in this memo. We could rig up something, but we think that we ought to have something that would be acceptable for production as if we have to alter it appreciably after we have made our tests we may spoil the effect.
