Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rmll/LGL7.10.28.

We understand that you are instructing one of the radiators for 'SS{S. Smith}' to be chromium plated.
If this is so, we can tell Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} to go ahead with headlamps etc. as R.{Sir Henry Royce} has expressed a wish that one of the 'SS{S. Smith}' cars should be chromium plated throughout.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}
