| S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} K790 CWB4/GM/23-2-27. Would you please send on to me the large envelope with papers which I left on your table last night. I was much interested in certain points of Ricardo's latest paper on petrol engine development, which he is reading before the I.A.E. in March. In the middle of page 8 he gives some very definite views on the question of compression ratio and its effect on harshness or roughness. Does your experience confirm his views on this matter?
