We are advised that Mr. Alfred Woodhead will visit us next Monday, 21st.inst, about 11 a.m. No doubt he will desire to know how our experiments with the new design of rear spring are progressing and will also desire to know how far he must go in the direction of supplying rear springs of the old design. He will also probably wish to ascertain our views regarding front springs. No doubt he will be able to say how the changeover of rear springs is progressing. Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} | ||
