| W/S - Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 26115 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.7/JH.10.10.36. Would you please ascertain from Messrs. Park Wards why it is they have removed the 3 bladed Barkshire wind screen wiper and fitted the two blader one. The whole point in fitting this wiper was not merely because it was a new design but also because it had an extra wiper on the inside of the screen which we consider a good feature and wished to try it out. We should be glad if you would see them about this and make an effort to get the wiper fitted. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
