| X 1150 To Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}8/KW.15.6.35. Re Tyre Testers by Walters & Dobson. In Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}12/KW.27.3.35, it will be seen that we prefer the Kismet gauges for 3 other reasons than their inaccuracy. (i.e. of the Walter & Dobson type). We are therefore not interested in these products. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/F.Dodd. | ||
