Speedometers.

Referring to BY10/G.8.10.30 I have received a cable from Mr.Beaver saying:

"AGREE ENGLISH SPEEDOMETER. CANNOT DECIDE FULLY REGARDING HORN ROAD WHEELS AND OTHER DETAILS PENDING ARRIVAL HIVES TWENTY FIVE EX."

This, however, gives you the information you were urgently requiring in regard to using English speedometers on the first 75 chassis.

His confirmatory letter will doubtless tell us what they wish done in regard to the other125.
