We understand from R.{Sir Henry Royce} that Ferranti's make an electric car clock. Will you kindly ascertain if this is so and obtain particulars of this clock for us. Also we should like to know if the Gent Co. are still going to let us have another sample clock suitable for our instrument board. As the matter was left some time ago, we understood that they would be sending one along shortly. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
