When the Lucas Electrical Co. met us in Conference here on the 13th ult. they stated they had suggestions to offer to us with regard to lamps and lamp fittings, adding that they considered that in respect of these we are somewhat out-of-date. This statement appeared in the Minutes of that Conference. We are now in receipt of a letter from the Lucas Electrical Co.Ltd., Birmingham, dated 21st inst. stating that they have information from their London depot that Mr.Royce's personal representative interviewed them recently and returned to Mr.Royce's address with samples of their concealed cable lamps, viz., Head Lamp R.55 and Side Lamp R.241.
