| 87120 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Automatic Shock Damper Control. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}2/E20.12.32 Referring to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}9/MJ.19.12.32, although the last paragraph does not specifically say so, I presume it is clear that, when 19-EX goes to France for demonstration purposes, it will not actually be fitted with the automatic control device, i.e. this will be fitted up after the Sales people there have finished with it and prior to your making the test runs referred to.
