| X3873 Exptl. Dept. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.4/KW.5.6.34. 5th June, 1934. M. {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Andre Dubonnet, 33, Rue des Graviers, (114, Boulevard Maurice-Barres), Neuilly, France. Dear Mons. Dubonnet, We have this morning received the following telegram - "AWAITING IMPATIENTLY YOUR REPLY - ANDRE DUBONNET". The only correspondence we have had from you since your last visit to our Works on April 26th is a tabulated comparison between your suspension system and Mr. Olley's "Wisbone" system. This is dated the 3rd of May. We were under the impression from your visit on 26.4.34 that in the course of a week from that date you were going to supply us with certain detailed drawings of parts which you required us to produce. We have been rather surprised that no further progress has been made. Perhaps you will be able to explain where the error has come about. If you have sent any other correspondence to us, we should like you to send us a further copy. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
