ROY{Sir Henry Royce}8/MG14.12.23

Attached is copy of a communication from the Houdaille Company making a special offer for standardisation of their Shock Absorbers.

I propose advising them we are not prepared to entertain their offer, thank them for same, and consider the incident closed - with which I think we are all in agreement.

Kindly confirm, however.

ROY.{Sir Henry Royce}
