Foreign Searches. --------------- In connection with the attached our patent agent writes as follows :- " We have received through our Italian Agent a number of Italian Specifications all in the name of FIAT. These are all prints of specifications, the granting of which has been notified to you before. It costs a good deal to get these speci- fications translated. On the last occasion fifteen specifications cost us £35.18.2. We therefore think that it might be well that you should instruct us definitely which of the enclosed specifications you would like translated. We have written on each the general nature of the device and it occurs to us that probably the only one which you would like to have translated is 337890 which deals with an independent suspension of the wheels."
