| To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. Copy to R.{Sir Henry Royce} BJ4/H20.8.24. X4240 WARNING WHISTLE FOR WATER BOILING. With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG15.8.24, the Sales Conference this afternoon were unanimous in hoping that the technical officials would be able to find some way of warning users of the 20 h.p. car when their water is boiling. We do have a number of cases to deal with where drivers have forgotten to open their shutters. It is an exceedingly easy thing for the ordinary driver to forget. B.J. | ||
