To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from HO. X7770 HO2/EBN9.6.28 14-EX CAR Your memo. to BJ. reference Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG31.5.28 was brought up at the C.S.C meeting yesterday, and I was desired to enquire further into the subject to which you referred in paragraph 2 of your memo. For the information of the C.S.C may we have a sketch or print showing the arrangement of the position of the steering wheel controls, etc.; and as you say the convenience of the control on the dashboard is largely influenced by the position of the instrument board would you let us know if the importance of the position of the board will be greater than is the case at present?
