re 25-HP. Crankcase Breather.

We send you herewith:-

LeC.4438 showing a crankcase breather pipe incorporated in the oil filler. This is the same in principle as the experimental one made by Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}, but has been arranged so that the cover on the starter motor can be removed.

We should like this fitted to the next car going to France.

LeC.4438 herewith.

E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}
