re Dipping headlights.

I have before me the advertisement
of a system for dipping headlights by Barker, Olaf
Street, Latimer Road, W.11. This system appears
to me very much like the one you were experimenting
with on "R"s car when I was last at "W". Will you
tell me if it is so.

If this sytem is a success I would
like to fit it on our trials cars.

Any information on the question
you can give me would be much appreciated.
