re Mr.Fairey.

Thanks for Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/KW.5.2.34. I have written to Mr. Fairey to-day as per the attached copy.

I have not told him anything about the valve lifts as I thought it might be giving him rather valuable information of a confidential nature.

I gather from your remarks that we are getting similar results now but in a different way, i.e. by altering the camshafts instead of special rockers.
