20th September 1912.

Mr Barrington

We received the following wires yesterday.

Mr Royce says -

"No more chassis be delivered without heat-treated butted tubes which were proved best on test. Press on with sixty-six per cent leverage."

-----------

"Adopt the large bolts with special nuts as soon as possible."

-----------

Mr Bailey has both these matters in hand and we are pushing forward the job with all speed.
