Dear John:

Many thanks for your letter.

I am enclosing herewith some literature on the Nash Ambassador. I hope this is what you wanted.

I have just spent ten days in the company of JS{Mr Johnson's Secretary} in New York, Montreal, and finally three days out here. Jack Barclay was out as well. I must say he is an amusing little man - really very likeable. I packed him off to Los Angeles to try and find some film stars! I saw Bill on Monday and went for a flight in one of his helicopters. A very pleasant experience if one has one's mind at rest and does not imagine all sorts of things going wrong.

Sincerely yours,

W. Roger Crafter
