| X35531. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Maybach Car. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}3/E17.10.30 With further reference to recent correspondence and my Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}23/E10.10.30 I do not know whether I shall have a chance of seeing you before you go to America. I hope so because as previously mentioned I am rather anxious to try the car. I should like to have a word with you about this question of the Maybach car as to whether we think that we really need it and if so, whether in view of your departure for America and probable 6 weeks' absence any good purpose would be served thereby in getting it prior to your return.
