BEATONSON BODY.

We attach herewith some correspondence we have received from Sales with regard to the above which it was proposed to get for 5-G-11.

It is evident that anything that is done with this type of body will have to be done in spite of the Coachbuilding Committee of which I believe you are a member.

In view of the fact that R. {Sir Henry Royce} is considering making a Saloon Body, it may be worth while holding this up until the whole thing can be discussed.

We have not received any blue-prints with the correspondence. No doubt they would supply you with prints, should you require them.
