| x5840 To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/KW.19.3.35. Smaller Wheels - 20/25. Confirming our conversation of yesterday, you will provide us with the necessary detail drawings to enable us to prepare a car for a 10,000 miles test, as arranged at the last Conference. Since seeing you we understand that E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} has a preference for increasing the camber of the rear springs instead of altering the brackets, but perhaps you would discuss this with him.
