RE TOOL KIT FOR 40/50 HP CHASSIS With reference to your EH2/LG15819, re Leather Roll, we originally requested the Order Office to procure a canvas roll, but the one supplied was a very cheaply-made article. We asked for a better type of canvas roll, and the cost of this was practically the same as the cost of a leather roll, so we finally decided to supply a leather roll. With reference to the other matters mentioned in this memo, we would suggest that these are considered at the next Conference. BY/JH. | ||
