In the meantime I shall be pleased to see if there is anything new to me in the 2 American schemes mentioned by CY. Perhaps he will send drgs. to DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} and DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Hdy.{William Hardy} will make copies and p. reports for me. I hope to be home in a few weeks now.

Our SS.{S. Smith} has now done 14,000 miles, and is very pleasing. It has improved with running. In several ways it has exceeded expectations. The 3 points of imperfection we hope will be improved on the next specimen - see other memos.
