Copy to E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Whr. {Mr Wheeler}
re America.

In a letter from Mr. Inskip relative to further
supplies of chassis he says:

"The Phantom-II has met with the warmest reception of
anything we have ever sold; and its riding qualities
are beyond anything produced by us or by anybody else."

Praise from America on this question of springing
is xxxx praise indeed!
