X.295 RE SMITH DYNAMO. X.3926 X.3923b

It has occurred to me that there is just the possibility that the blowing of the two fuses may have caused in some mysterious manner, the over-heating of the Smith dynamo on 6 EX. I cannot at present see how this could affect the machine, but it is worth while to bear such a possibility in mind.
