Re 20/25 HP car, fitted with Dubonnet Suspension 19-G-IV.

I read with pleasure Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 's memo (Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 7/E31.1.35), because unless there is a very good reason for this work, it is better to stop it.

The one main trouble we are suffering from to-day is that we are all attempting too much, and it means delay right through the job.
