To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from JS.{Mr Johnson's Secretary} Professor Dodds - B-34-GA. JS{Mr Johnson's Secretary}3/E22.9.36

In Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s absence this week I have submitted your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}10/KW.21.9.36 to C. and he would be glad if you would go ahead with preparing an experimental unit such as you suggest to be fitted into Professor Dodds' car so that you may have in the experimental department the unit at present in his car.

Would you kindly let us know when the experimental unit will be ready and how long you will require the car at Derby for the fitting, as we shall doubtless have to lend Professor Dodds a car for that period.

JS.{Mr Johnson's Secretary}
