Re: The "Motor"

Would you please note that Mr. Maurice Platt, who has been Technical Editor for many years, has left and joined the Research Department of Vauxhalls.

He has been succeeded on the "Motor" by Laurence Pomeroy Jr.{Mr James Royce}, who is the son of Mr. Romeroy, formerly of Daimler's and now of De Havilland's Aero Engine Division.

In case Mr. Pomeroy comes up to the Works, please be very careful that he is not shown anything of a Secret nature in connection with our cars.

In common with many other Gentlemen of the Press, he would naturally be only too pleased to get some advance information.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
