Introduced in the early part of the year, the 4-tonner, which has been designed throughout in this country, is of special interest. In forward-control form, it serves as the foundation of an hydraulic end-tipping lorry with B. and E. gear, It is powered by a sixcylindered 25.3 h.p. engine, and has a single-plate clutch and a four-speed gearbox. This machine has as its basis the short-wheelbase chassis, and the drive is taken through a single-piece propeller shaft to a spiral-bevel-type axle with fully floating shafts. The frame is well braced by triangular members which are carried forward inside the longitudinals to reinforce them at their front end and to give added strength to this important sectiOn.

The 2-ton long-wheelbase model is on view with a lorry body, the engine and chassis details being the same as for the 24--ton model.

Two vans are displayed, the payloads being 15-cwt. and 30-cwt. respectively. The former has a six-cylindered engine rated at 19.8 h.p., and the weight of the complete vehicle is only 24 cwt.
