Re New Chassis Troubles.
-------------------
Below are some examples of troubles experienced with the electrical equipment we have recently had with imported chassis:
(7) On chassis 74-TW, the main switch gave trouble due to improper connection.
(8) On 25-DW, the Lucas cutout stuck. (This was wrongly reported under the heading "S. Starter" in my report 18-A on August, 17th 1920.)
(9) On chassis 21-LW, the generator was noisy, apparently due to lack of oil.
