| X9410 To [REDACTED]. from BJ. c. to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BJ1/D14.8.24. Maddocks has just informed me that he expects 107-MG (our Open Demonstration Car) to be fitted with front wheel brakes and 12% stronger springs to-day. London Officials will test it to-morrow morning, it will then go to CJ. at Kingsdown, for him to try, we hope on Friday afternoon, to enable him possibly to telegraph you if he agrees springs for open cars can be ordered.
