| To HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to CJ. x1692 x3317 [STAMP] ORIGINAL [STAMP] RECEIVED JUN 11 1921 RE HORSE POWER RECORDS. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 2 R1/G9/6/21. With reference to your memo HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG3/6/21, the confusion has been that they are both dynamometers, one R.W. dynamometer and the other Test Plate dynamometer. Let us say in future, R.W. HP. and T.P. HP. dropping the word dynamometer as much as possible. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
