| X2200. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}11/KT. August 22nd, 1932. Bendix-Perrot Brakes Ltd., Kings Road, Tyseley, Birmingham. For the attention of Mr. Clark. Dear Mr. Clark, We have now had some further experience with the Bendix clutch control, and at the present moment have reached a point where we should like to talk the matter over with your representative. Frankly we do not see how the device is going to work to give satisfactory clutch operation, and for this reason we should like to know whether there are any further developments that are likely to give us what we want. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
