Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}1/AP17.3.37. We were very glad to know the progress made in devising a chain which can be used on all our chassis with discs fitted to the wheels, and that these are now procurable from the Parsons Chain Company. May we take it that you are immediately having a suitable leaflet printed for the Instruction Books, amending the existing instructions which appear in the Instruction Books for the 25/30 and Bentley and adding suitable instructions in the P.III book, in which at present no mention is made regarding snow chains?
