experiments by repeating them if you have the apparatus still available. We would like the load to be that of a 39 cwt. car, the loads dis-tributed as nearly as possible to approximately actual conditions.

The extra case we would like tried is that of the body underframe suspension in which the body weights are concentrated at two points along the side channels.

We are also particularly interested in the deflections of the front and rear horns.
