contd :- -2- I propose to come over to Paris on Tuesday next the 9th., and repeat some of the tests we have tried over here on 21-EX. At the same time if you have found any marked difference between axles as shewn up on XXXX French roads I shall be interested to try the improvements. We can also go over the side steering tube. Will you please arrange to be in Paris on Tuesday and I will let you know when I expect to arrive. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
