The Lucas Electrical Co.Ltd.
Well St,
Birmingham.

For the attention of Dr. E.O. Turner.

Dear Sirs,

In connection with the exchange of tests we are mutually carrying out on Lucas and R.R. ignition equipment, we should be glad if you would kindly let us know the turn ratio of the Lucas type L ignition coil we have for test i.e. the number of primary and secondary turns.

We are proceeding to test the units recently submitted to us and shall be pleased to let you have a report in due course.

With reference to the new Lucas windscreen wiper you showed us, we should be pleased to know how this is progressing and whether it will soon be possible for us to have a sample for trial.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
