re. SPRINGING 25-JS.{Mr Johnson's Secretary} MR. ARMAND ESDERS, PARIS.

Ref. D/BP/HD{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}7/WS13.10.31. in view of the specification given, i.e. "only used for town work", "not satisfied with 25-WJ (standard springing) and "extremely particular about suspension", is this not a case for low rated springs?
