| X4704 To DY.{F R Danby} From HDY.{William Hardy} c.c. Mr. P.B. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Mr. A.F.C. HDY.{William Hardy}1/HP.22.3.34. GRY{Shadwell Grylls} J.3. Gearbox. Now that the gearbox is free from the vibrations of the engine we think that a reduction in the thickness of the change gear lever may be made without ill effect, and we suggest that the lever for the new J.3. can be made .300" thick instead of the present .350".
