Re: TRANSPORT MANAGER.
-----------------------

I have been trying to find a suitable person ever since you mentioned this matter to me at Glasgow, and enclose a copy of a letter I have addressed to Mr. Arthur Holden.

I first met him when he was an R.R. owner. Later he fell on evil times and has once more been working for his living.

I can assure you that he will work himself to the bone for you. He is absolutely reliable and very intelligent - but very small!!

If you can, do give him a trial.
