| RECEIVED DEC 17 1931 c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X6029 BY/Cgh.{W Clough}6/G.9.12.31. BACKING LIGHT SWITCH. ------------------- With reference to DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}6/M.1.12.31. we are not being called upon to make any provision for a backing light switch on production chassis, and our information from Sales indicates that very few, if any, customers call for this fitment. We suggest, therefore, that we do not make provision for such a switch on J.lll gearbox at the present time. BY/Cgh.{W Clough} | ||
