| STRICTLY PRIVATE. S/B. To BTH. (of R.R.A.I.) from C. CL/D27.8.28. SUPER SPORTS CAR. Your HJW11/G21.8.28. BJ. asks me to advise you that for the protection of R.R.A.I. as well as R.R. Ltd. he considers that no drawings or correspondence relating to this should go out-side Derby. If designing or drawing for R.R.A.I. is desirable at present R.R.A.I. should send a man to W. or we will try to arrange it with our staff there. Secrecy is of first importance. If it is definitely and finally decided that any parts are to be made at Springfield we will then consider how soon we can send drawings or agree to these parts being made there for experiments, etc. C. | ||
