BENTLEY HEADLAMPS.

With further reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst5/MA.21.12.33., we have seen from a copy of your recent note to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} that Lucas have definitely refused to fit plain Diffusa type glasses to head-lamps of the current type.

Have you succeeded in getting from them the undertaking that we suggested you should seek in the sixth paragraph of our Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}2/I/23.12.33?
