| To DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} X7420 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/LG19.11.28. FRONT AXLE CONTROL DAMPER. With reference to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M16.11.28. The memo. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/LG13.11.28. was unfortunately sent out without my knowledge - I had not intended to circulate it until I had further information, since none of these levers have broken on the road. I send you a sketch of three failures we have had on the bump. You are correct in assuming that 'decrease' should be read instead of 'increase' in the last para. but one.
