Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/LG21. 6. 29.

As regards the wireless set which PN.{Mr Northey} wishes to carry on the car. If you make sure that this is added to the list of accessories fitted to the car signed by the Customs Officer, there should be no difficulty in bringing it back.

Will you please arrange to send a daily report on the distance run, petrol used and any remarks on the running of the car, which should include your own personal observations and any of PN{Mr Northey}'s remarks and criticisms.

It is most important that you should send this daily report to me.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
