| DY.{F R Danby} from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} " " ETC. " " ------------- X.3741 ROY{Sir Henry Royce}5/MG22.11.28 ------------- At present it is costing us about £200. a year to include a Battery Hydrometer in our Tool Kit. Now the Battery people are so well represented all over the country with Service Stations, I suggest we might consider the advisability of withdrawing the Hydrometer from the Tool Kit; and, if it is felt such Hydrometer is necessary in Chassis for Overseas, it be included only in such equipment.
