RE SPRING LUBRICATION

The system at present employed to lubricate the road springs is working satisfactorily, but cannot of course be taken to represent the best that can possibly be done.

We understand that some such scheme as we suggested in our Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}9/T15.11.28 is being tried out by the Experimental Dept. and that future series will have a positive scheme of lubrication, but we feel that it would be a great advantage if a scheme that would be applicable retrospectively in cases where necessary, could be evolved.
