Messrs. North & Sons Ltd.,

Dear Sirs,

EW6. Magneto - H.T. brush squeaks.

There is, in our Test Dept., a minor complaint of brush squeaks on these magnetos. It occurred to us to query whether you have experimented with various grades of brush with a view to minimising this possibility.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
