----------

In considering the 1939 budget figure, it can be
anticipated that a corresponding number of chassis and units
will be produced as in 1938, however, in view of the simplified
and ease of manufacturing problems established, we recommend
that the 1938 budget figure of £60,000 can be appreciably
reduced for 1939.

We should like your comments.
