J.S.Welsh, Esq.,
Shell-Mex and B.P. Ltd.,
Shell-Mex House,
Victoria Embankment,
LONDON, W.C.2.

Dear Welsh,

Your Intelligence Department seems to know more about my activities than about the sale of petrol. I understand our Production Test Department use equal quantities of all the fuels quite indiscriminately, and the Experimental Department likewise.

I hope this answers your question.

Yours sincerely,
