A.T.Speedometers

We have been troubled with clicking in A.T.Speedometer Heads when fitted to certain cars, and this matter has been taken up seriously by the A.T.Company. As a result of experiments, they are now submitting a sample Speedometer Head, and write as copy attached.

Do you think this has overcome the trouble? Please advise

I understand the A.T.Company have submitted the sample herewith to a Bench Test of approximately 20,000 miles.
