With regard to Hdy{William Hardy}'s memo on wheel drivers, we are arranging to fit scheme 1 on N.Sch.5139 on a P.III car we have going to France shortly. For our next test, for which we have more time for preparation, we think it would be as well to fit the third scheme. Will you, therefore, please let us have details of this one.
