BRAKES. X3409

Attached herewith is a report from my assistants who recently visited Messrs. Ferodo's Works.

We have at various times raised points with Messrs. Ferodo Ltd. as regards possible variation in their material.
They have, a number of times, invited us to see the tests carried out in their own Laboratory.
