| EFC. FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} C. to SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} C. to EX. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} DIMMING SWITCH. Regarding the above R.{Sir Henry Royce} is of the opinion that it would be of no use to encourage Lucas' to design and make a dimming switch for us. It is proposed in the near future that we should develop a design of our own suitable, it is hoped, for both L. and R.H. chassis. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} E4/M23.5.30. filed x4520 ORIGINAL | ||
