MADRID 4th.March 1922. SU REF. MI REF. Sdo/C My dear CJ, For some time I had known that Messrs.Scholey & C/ were bringing out a new electrical equipment but I had not mentioned it to you as I was asked to keep it with the utmost reserve. I know you will excuse me under the circumstances. However it has just been made public in the Motor of the 1st.of March & I refer you to it to see what the novelty is & if it will interest R.R.to get into communication with Messrs.Scholey on the subject. I think it is quite a good thing with a great future due to its simplicity & light weight. I am writting Messrs.Scholey so that they may get into communication with you. According to the valued opinion of Mr.Scholey it seems that this type of self starter will in time be the one adopted for every car. Yours ever.
