I suppose you run into the same situation as we - in that the high price market has dropped in the last few years from about 85,000 to 15,000, which makes picking rather thin, particularly if there is any com-petition.

No one from Cadillac will be in evidence in your vicinity this year.

I understand that Olley is in this country and will probably put in an appearance tomorrow.

I shall be very pleased, indeed, to visit with Mr. Hives when he comes over.

Sincerely yours,

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} W. Seaholm
Chief Engineer
