| X.3538 S/W (Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}) Whr{Mr Wheeler}15/AP. 30. 5. 28. re Your memo Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/LG.24.5.28. I asked C.W.B. whether he considered any action should be taken to advise overseas Depots, Retailers, owners, etc., of the importance of the 40-lbs pressure to front tyres. C.W.B. thinks they should be so advised, and as it is also not generally known, how much influence the suspension has on the steering. No doubt Works will consider what information should be broadcast in this connection. Whr.{Mr Wheeler} [Signature] | ||
