20HP.

X5080

A drawing (half finished) of
the present carburetter alterations for the new head was
given to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} personally while at WW., so that the altera-
tions could go forward, but the controls have not been
finished as far as we know.

We have heard nothing since, and
if you want us to do anything please send us a print of
how far the work has got, or send our drawing back if
nothing has been done.

About one month has passed.

R.{Sir Henry Royce}
