Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/KT.21.11.33.

Capt. Wilks of the Rover Motor Co., who has been of material assitance to us on the Girling Brake job, and also on stabilising bumpers, has written to us as per attached letter. I wonder whether you could let me have any information which we think would be of any interest to him. I do not know what sort of claim we have on diamond engine mounting but should think that this would leave Chryslers with a very thin case.
