Re: TEST RIG FOR CAR RADIATORS.

Referring to your Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 2/MJ.11.3.31., we attach hereto copy of letter we have received from The Airscrew Company, Ltd..

During my interview I pointed out the desirability of quoting us a keen price, and in the event of your giving instructions for the airscrew to be put in hand to suit a "Hawk(Aero Engine)" Type propeller boss, will you please tell them the direction of rotation.

Lp. {Mr Lappin}
