Re 20/25 h.p. PETROL CONSUMPTION.

Just to give you some idea of the sort of feeling customers have on this question of petrol consumption, I am an enclosing extracts from letters we have received this week from Sir Banister Fletcher, the Architect, and from Capt.Fraser Henderson.

I am glad to hear on the telephone from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} that you are distinctly hopeful of solving this and the flooding trouble.
