GAS LEAKS THROUGH INDIA FLOORBOARDS.
X.3908 X.5500 X.5310

Referring to our AJS1/M24.3.26., will you kindly substitute the scheme indicated hereunder for that shewn in the letter quoted above, as we believe that the previous one would cause considerable hindrance in dismantling the India gearbox chnage lever shaft. This trouble is obviated in the new scheme.

SEE ORIGINAL FOR SKETCH.
