| X6036 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Rg{Mr Rowledge}4/DM.{D. Munro} January 22nd, 1932. W.O. Kennington, Esq., Messrs. Delco-Remy & Hyatt Ltd., 11, Grosvenor Road, London. S.W.1. Dear Kennington, I am returning to you herewith the blue prints with reference to Delco ignition which you kindly lent to me when we met in London recently. I have told the Ministry that I am ready for their conference with regard to the adoption of battery ignition, but have not received any reply from them. I hope we shall soon get instructions to go ahead with battery ignition for development. Kind regards, Yours sincerely, Enclosures. | ||
