x3269 EJJ. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation}2/MA.11.6.34. K.10 TEST HOUSE. On the Bentley bed in the above test house the coupling to the brake is in need of attention. This coupling is out of date, and has done about 10 years work. As the bed is to be used for high speed work, and in view of the fact that the coupling has already once flown to pieces, will you please make the necessary modifications immediately.
