| slurs? Roy{Sir Henry Royce}/MS. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/MA.20.7.33. With reference to Messrs.Klaxons Letter of the 18th.inst., referring to order No.50137 the reason the parking arm bearing was reduced in length is due to the width of the scuttle rail and Mr.Gentry was shown this on the occasion of a visit he paid to us some time ago. We cannot tolerate the long length parking arm bearing on the majority of our new chassis, and we hope Messrs.Klaxons will be able to design the wiper with a much shorter bearing.
