Mr. Burton,

Mass. U. S. A. {Mr Adams}

From Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 9/MJ.26.2.31.

Attached herewith is a report from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} on the sample battery you sent over, which is the type you propose to fit to imported Phantom II chassis.

You will note that there are certain criticisms made against this battery. You may think it advisable to take these points up with the battery makers. We should be interested to know their comments, and whether they agree with our criticisms; or they may be able to tell us where we are wrong.

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
