| Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. c. HHL. c. CX.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} PN.{Mr Northey} X6032 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.3/ADS.4.32. ELECTRICAL UNITS ON 58-GN X6139. We are pleased to note that you like our new Lucas horn and we are arranging to fit up a similar one on 19-EX mounted under the front apron as per De/Hv's scheme but farther back than the one on 58-GN in order not to muffle the sound. We are also arranging for the starter switch on 58-GN to be modified so that the hold off portion is deleted. R.{Sir Henry Royce} has now agreed to this in R2/M2.4.32.
