| E.8/HP. 24th May 1937. Mr Alex Taub., Messrs. Vauxhall Motors Ltd., Luton, BEDS. Dear Mr Taub, I am sorry not to have replied before to your letter of the 25th March, but have only just returned from an extended visit to the United States. We have now made a Summer's torsional indicator and are proceeding to do some work with it. With regard to the question of oils, you have our full sympathy and support in the movement you have undertaken to get the oil companies to label their products in a more scientific way rather than exploring the dictionary for further adjectives. This is however a matter in which Mr Robotham is more interested and I have accordingly passed on your letter to him to deal with. With kind regards, Yours very truly, From A.G.ELLIOTT. | ||
