| 86110 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.3/MA. 6th August, 1936. W.O.Kennington, Esq., Messrs.Delco-Remy & Hyatt, Ltd., 111, Grosvenor Road, London, S.W.1. Dear Kennington, We have carried out our usual tests on the sample of H.T. ignition cable you sent up to us and we find it very much inferior on our ozone test to the B.I. cable we tested some time ago. I rang up B.I. yesterday and they said they had had some trouble with faulty material and it looks as if this cable might be worse than standard in this respect. They are sending me a new sample this morning which we propose testing similarly, Yours sincerely, | ||
