To By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1/KW.19.3.35.

Smaller Wheels - 20/25.

Confirming our conversation of yesterday, you will provide us with the necessary detail drawings to enable us to prepare a car for a 10,000 miles test, as arranged at the last Conference.

Since seeing you we understand that E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} has a preference for increasing the camber of the rear springs instead of altering the brackets, but perhaps you would discuss this with him.
