| S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X180 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG19.5.28 C5/C21.5.28 I quite agree with what you say. We should like to send a car, however, so will you please let me know by return what car you propose. It would do about 2,000 miles, and be away about ten days, from the 14th June. I presume you will be able to fit something on the car that can be usefully tested out. C. 8EX (F.{Mr Friese} Dodd) to leave on 11th June. | ||
