| To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} x 1729 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/KW.29.5.34. Cadillac 16. We had a note from Oy. saying that the Cadillac 16 which we are having did not reach the Experimental Dept. until the 16th of this month. They will want it for about 10 days to go over the suspension etc. This means that we shall not get the car until the end of June. Cadillacs admit that they are at least 3 weeks behind their promise.
