'SS {S. Smith} ' CAR FOR FRANCE. X7380

In making the modifications to the car without the cross, which we hope to take to France on Saturday, we find that we shall not be ready until the early hours tomorrow morning. We hope to have the information as to whether the car is a feasible production possibility before 9.a.m. and if we are still in trouble to discuss with you what further steps should be taken.
