To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}18/E14.9.32. - 2 - Proportion of front braking which has been increased and the steering anti-friction device. I will let you have my views on these after I have given the car more use. On the subject of the braking you were to let us know how much running had been done on cars with this increase so that we could consider whether or not we could approve of it on one or two chassis for customers who are asking for it.
