Re Axle Pivots.

Mr Hadin 26-4-13
Mr Spinney

Below is a copy of a telegram we have received from Mr Royce :-

"Do not understand why spring buffers in cross steering tube are not more effective possibly the clearance insufficient try also some other form of elasticity such as a bit of dip in cross tube experiment with other makes of cars for strength."

We shall be glad if you will proceed with the necessary designs for this experiment and inform us on their completion.

p. A.{Mr Adams} Wormald.
