ACCIDENT TO 15-EX CAR. +8940/-
CWB. and Mr. Grylls are coming to the Works after the holiday to talk over the accident to 15-EX.
In the meantime we thought you would like to know that we had got a wrong impression when we said that CWB. was blaming the steering for the cause of the accident.
We attach herewith reports on the accident. We will send further information later.
