H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} West Esq.,
Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd.,
DERBY.
Dear Mr. West,
Thanks for your further letter this morning regarding the pump showing a discharge of 8 amp. The poor devil is trying to work against a brick wall as it is obvious that this will occur under these conditions. Why fit a petrol tap. In our opinion this is not at all necessary.
Kind regards.
Yours Sincerely,
T C Skinner
