| COPY. Telephone message from R.{Sir Henry Royce} to CJ. Taken down by JS.{Mr Johnson's Secretary} 6th.Nov.1920. Does America understand that we recommend them to fit front pivot friction by washers as tested and demonstrated there by Platford. Olley's objections unconfirmed by test which show our simple device quite satisfactory. Regarding road springs we advise and agree they procure and fit thin leaf rolled eye to all cars. Kindly cable them your approval if you also agree and if they are in any doubt as to our instructions. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
