| X4261 HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} To-Worr. From BJ. Copy to Her-HY. {Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} EJ2/E19.9.28 20HP - G.2. Front Road Springs. Pre-Front-Wheel-Brakes. Referring to RS {Sir Henry Royce's Secretary} /M18.9.28, as the total loss is to be about £10,000, it is of course of extreme importance that every endeavour should be made to modify the leaves of the springs that are removed so that we can use them in the future. Who should study this, please? BJ. | ||
