Replying to Tr{Capt. F. W. Turner - Finance}/Mgn.5/H.30.10.36.

We are at present testing a stabiliser on very similar lines which is being used by the Leyland Motor Co. We are not sure whether this is exactly the same device as that being used by Mr. Fleischmann but the principle is so nearly the same that no useful purpose can be served by duplicating the experiment.
