| - 2 - He is of the opinion that our troubles are cumulative - 1. Partly to absence of steering column support, 2. Steering column box insufficiently rigidly attached to frame, 3. Steering column bracket through dashboard insufficiently rigid. Doubtless these points have all been considered carefully by R.{Sir Henry Royce} and W. but I thought there would be no harm in mentioning them as it is always interesting to have an outsiders views, especially when the person in question has had considerable experience with other makes of Cars. I am writing you separately regarding another point raised by him but thought you would like to send copy of this one re steering on to other people - and therefore attach two copies for this purpose.
