Suspension on my car

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 15/KW6.9.35.

So glad that you are tackling this problem of Road Springs and I am glad that you agree with me, because I have never been satisfied with the springing on this car, indeed it has made people ill from time to time, and it will be interesting, seeing that it is a new problem, to find a cure.

I note that three or four weeks will be required before we can get the springs.
