re: Geoffrey Smith.

Since writing our memo regarding a car for Mr. Geoffrey Smith, we have spoken to Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} , and, apparently, he does not wish Mr. Smith to have an experimental car, even if available. Under the circumstances, you will doubtless write to him and put him off.
