| N 590 TBB5/L14312. March 14th. 1912. Messrs Hays, Hunter & Standen Ltd., 101, Leadenhall Street, London. E.C. Dear Sirs, With reference to your letters to our London office concerning the Gyroscopic non-skid, we regret to advise you that we are not interested in this scheme, and that the device does not appeal to us. We understand that you suggest an interview in order that we may discuss the technical points in connection with this device, but we do not think any useful purpose will be served by this, as the device has already been tested by one of our technical experts. Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
