| X4228 Mr Shelton. c, Hq. BY8-P21.6.23. 20HP. STARTING CARBURETTER COCK. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, is anxious for us to adopt a plug type coack in place of the parallel as soon as possible. I believe we have a scheme for the 40/50, a similar scheme for the 20HP ought to be got out and then we would fix up with Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, how, and when, to bring it in. BY.{R.W.
