Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} X1152 ROY{Sir Henry Royce}12/MG20.7.25. Houdaille Shock Absorbers The Houdaille people write as copy attached. In view of the modifications they have since made to their Shock Absorber, would you care to try a set? The objection, as I understand it, to their Shock Absorber is the variation in the liquid used, due to climatic conditions; and, apparently this is still the principle of their apparatus.
