W/S. {Derby Works / Sales}
C. from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

1804

Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 2/R.17.11.37.

With reference to the attached note from Capt. Phillips, I have spoken to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} on the subject, and he thinks it would be best if you could loan him a Demonstration car.

Capt. Phillips is, of course, in charge of all the R.A.C. trials, official tests, etc., and has been very good to us on a number of occasions. If you could let him have a car I would be very grateful if you would ring him up immediately on receiving this note.
