To BY/RD. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/LG16.4.29.

With reference to BY/RD7/N12.4.29. We note that you have now issued a scheme for 20 HP. side spare wheel carrier. Before we issue a standardisation sheet for these parts we propose to at least get them made and fitted to a chassis so that we can be sure the pieces go together. We will then issue a std. sheet whilst bumping tests are in progress.
