To Woc. From Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}

Items previously discussed but not agreed for incorporation in the 20G chassis.

Remarks.

occasionally strike it is not material so long as there are no projections in the wheel house to cut the chains.
This alteration would presumably mean increasing the track which could not be agreed to for USA unless it were being standardised for England.

h.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Black steering wheel.
He refers to appearance and saving in cost.
This of course we should not agree to unless standardised for England but it is a matter well worth considering and I should rather like to see one.

j.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Staybrite wire wheels.
He wishes to discuss the question of extra charge for such wheels for special orders.

k.{Mr Kilner} Throttle stop for idling.
This was covered by Item 16 of the minutes of the Verroy's Restaurant conference wherein we said that it would interfere with our starting carburettor and, therefore, could not be agreed, but he says that this is not the case and wishes to show it on the car he has brought over.

l. Modified attachment of scuttle, dash and bonnet.
He has certain ideas in regard to this which seem to me quite good, but as mentioned in my memo. of yesterday we must not do something in this direction on chassis for America unless it is going to be standardised at home.

m.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Front Apron.
He refers to standardised method of attachment but I do not think that this is our supply.
