| Contd.. -5- Ck{Mr Clark}2/T4.3.20. while ago we pointed out to the Smith Company that this was one of the things we were particularly up against on our present standard machine. Now that you have suggested obtaining some of these, we will again write Messrs. Smith and we would suggest that we get their engineer to come over and discuss the various points with us. We will also endeavour to obtain a machine to be sent to you for your inspection. Neither of the two machines we have at present would represent, we feel, the final product which we should agree to use.
