[STAMP: RECEIVED SH MAY]

N.2 SERIES - SHOCK DAMPERS.

The Works have received instructions to go ahead on N.2 series. The first chassis for this series should be on test in approximately a month's time. This means that we have got to make a decision in regard to the shock dampers.

We would like you to confirm, therefore, that we can or can not use the split piston type of damper which we recently produced in our Department to your specification.
