The results of the test seems to indicate that our frames are satisfactory and meet the requirements of the American underwriters' tests but that there is considerable room for improvement in the American bumpers. Such being the case I propose to send the American Co. a copy of the report. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
