IGNITION CABLE.

I attach herewith a length of Messrs Macintosh's "Maconite"Cable, and would like to have same tried out electrically.

If it is apparently superior to our present type, I would then propose Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} running same, and would get sufficient for this purpose.

BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}
