RECEIVED 9 APR 1930 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x5700 BY/7/G.8.4.30. 20/25 HP. CHASSIS - CLUTCH. We wish you to issue a standardisation sheet for the increased load on the friction clutch in the method by which it is obtained as shown on G.5432/7 inclusive. This, we understand, was fitted on the 20 HP. car in France. There will, of course, in addition to this be standardisation sheets to cover the other features which have been modified, and incidentally possibly the return to S.L.V. steel for the valves may need a standardisation sheet to regularize it.
