Mr. Underwood, A.I.D.

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst.3/MA.2.9.35.

K.2635 50 HOUR FUEL ECONOMY TEST.

We wish to try out on this test two
types of experimental sparking plugs, 12 type 893B (K.L.G.)
and 12 type X471B (Lodge). We believe these will perform
more satisfactorily than the K.L.G.769B used on the
100 hour test.

Will you please say if you agree to this
procedure.

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst.
