E.W. Seaholm, Esq. -2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/R.18.8.38.

How is the 16-cylinder Cadillac selling ?
Do you find that enough people want to buy this size of automobile to make it worth while developing such a product, and when you have finished it, is it as good as the Cadillac 60 ?

Are any of your folk likely to be over here in the near future ? We expect that Hives will go to the States in the New Year and he will be hoping to see you.

Yours sincerely,
