With reference to ZP9/H29.10.28 on the above subject, I have discussed the question of the provision of a spare glass until such time as a definite cure of the trouble has been achieved, with Sr., who approves of its supply immediately and authorises this and requests that you will at the same time send immediately to Lillie Hall a stock of these glasses so that cars which are now being delivered from coachbuilders may be provided with a spare glass before delivery. He urges at the same time that the steps which are in hand to provide a container which will not fracture should be accelerated so that we may fit it at the earliest possible date. Will you please arrange for this to be done. CWB | ||
