W/S. CWB. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X383 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rml/T4.12.26. VACUUM OPERATED SERVO FOR MOTOR CAR BRAKES. With reference to your CWB8/GM/3.12.26. we are not at the moment interested in vacuum brakes and do not think, therefore, it would be worth while testing the device which you mention.
