Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} By re Bonnet Stops on 20/25 Chassis. We should be interested to know if you consider bonnet stops are required on the 20/25 chassis of the same pattern as recently standardised for the larger model. We have a scaled down design suitable for application to the 20/25 HP. of the improved form of stop, but naturally it will add somewhat to the cost of production, and we should therefore like your confirmation that this feature is necessary before we proceed further.
